Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Welcome to Hcm,
It sure is a worrying feeling. You can give albendazole syp 200 mg one dose.
If needed you can repeat it after 2 weeks. If symptoms persists, I would suggest you to consult a pediatrician for proper evaluation. Hope my suggestion is of some help. Take care.
