Pin worm trouble?


Question:
My friend has had pinworms before. She says that when she started eating healthier and monitering her butt, the pinworms went away. They ahve been gone for over a month (she never saw a doctor) She ate a meal containing wild meat the night before though, and the pin worms came back. Did they really ever go away she was asking me, or was it the wild meat that gave it to her again?

Answers:
Pinworm is an intestinal infection caused by tiny parasitic worms measuring about half an inch (about 2 centimeters) in length. Other names for a pinworm infection are "seatworm infection," "threadworm infection," "enterobiasis," or "oxyuriasis."

Other Answers:
Tell her to see a doctor soon.
