Worms & Homeopathy
Worms
Traditional, Complementary medicine & Alternative health Treatments.
Symptoms :
Thread worms (pinworms) and tapeworms are the most common types of worms. In this section, we will deal with the more common threadworms which are widespread and children are particularly affected; tapeworms are less common. Threadworms commonly infect the human intestine and cause inflammation and itching around the anus. They may be visible around it or in the faeces. At night, the female threadworms emerge from the anus, lay around 10000 eggs around it and later die. The eggs live for up to three weeks and are highly infectious. There may be abdominal pain and sleep may be disturbed due to itching.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Likely causes:
Scratching means eggs are transferred to the fingers and then to objects where other children pick them up. Worms can also be acquired from infected / undercooked meat or contaminated soil. Also, if a child has worms, scratches himself and put their fingers in the mouth, the eggs that reach the intestines may hatch into adults and the cycle continues.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What your doctor might suggest:
There are ointments to soothe the anal itching from threadworms and de-worming drugs are available, which the entire family must use to ensure there is no re-infection.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alternatives Health treatments:
Aromatherapy place one drop of tea tree, one of lavender and one of eucalyptus into 2 teaspoon of carrier oil and rub around the anus to prevent itching and to prevent eggs being laid - apply at morning and especially at night.
Bach flower remedies Rescue remedy is good for discomfort or distress - rub into the pulse points and around the anus to relieve itching. Crab apple is excellent if you feel unclean or polluted.
Homeopathy Cina may help to expel worms naturally. Teucrium for an itchy bottom and nose, worse in the evening and with restless sleep.
Spiritual / emotional connections you are giving your power to others and allowing them to take over.
other Alternative Health ideas raw garlic, raw onions, raw carrots, raw apples and pumpkin seeds can help clear the infection as they are toxic to worms. Keep fingernails short and well-scrubbed and change towels often, always wash your hands after going to the toilet. A teaspoon each of cayenne pepper and senna can be combined in a cup of live yogurt and taken by the teaspoon before meals - The former stuns the worms and the later encourages them to be expelled. Take acidophilus tablets for a couple of months during and after an attack to recolonise the bowel. Worms thrive on sugar, so remove all forms of sugar from the diet. Any treatment you choose should last for at least two weeks to cover the life cycle of worms. Tapeworms are paralysed by pomegranates, which contain an alkaloid drug called pelletierine. So eat a pomegranate and then purge the system by eating lots of prunes, dried apricots, cooked apples - whatever takes your fancy and is effective!
