You can get infected with worms quickly. But then their complete elimination from the body will require effort and time. At the same time, the presence of such parasites inside a person causes discomfort and causes health problems. And if the treatment of helminthiasis is not started in time, the consequences for the whole organism can be quite serious. And the best option would be folk remedies for worms, since they do not harm an already weakened internal system. But before you start fighting pests, you need to make sure they're there. This can be done by passing tests or paying attention to accompanying signs.
You can recognize worms that have taken up residence in your own body by the following symptoms:
