Understanding Threadworm Symptoms and Treatment
Recognising threadworm symptoms is the first step to effective treatment. The most common sign is intense itching around the anus, particularly at night, which can disrupt sleep. You might also spot tiny, white, thread-like worms in your stool or around the anus. If you suspect threadworms, it’s important to treat everyone in the household, even if they don't show symptoms, as the infection spreads easily.
Weldricks Pharmacy offers a range of reliable threadworm medicine, including Ovex tablets and suspension, designed for effective threadworm treatment in the UK. Alongside medication, strict hygiene measures are crucial to prevent reinfection and stop the spread:
- Wash hands thoroughly and frequently, especially before eating and after using the toilet.
- Keep fingernails short and clean.
- Change and wash bed linen, pyjamas, and towels regularly on a hot wash.
- Shower or bathe daily to remove any eggs.
- Clean bathroom and kitchen surfaces thoroughly.
Our pharmacists are here to provide professional advice on managing threadworms, ensuring you choose the right pharmacy products for your family’s needs and implement effective strategies for quick resolution.
