of the world. However, they are more common in tropical and
subtropical areas and are widely prevalent during the rainy

and restlessness at night with bed dreams, anemia and headaches.
Round worms may give rise to inflammation of the intestine and
lungs, nausea, vomiting, loss of weight, fever nervousness.

The eggs of these
parasites are introduced into the human system through the
medium of food or water.

food causes round warm.
-
Hookworms enter the
human body through bare foot walking on infected earth.

foods contaminated by dogs.

suitable medium for their propagation. The medium is an
intestinal tract clogged with morbid matter.
