We’ve all had Ovex on Sunday. Toddler DD had stopped itching. But tonight she said she had an itch at the front, checked and nothing and she is sleeping fine.
Before, all her itching and pain was around the front, not so much her bottom.
Now, the worms are coming out in the poo in her nappy. More each day. They don’t move. But everything I read says they’re thin thin thin like thread. But these are about 2mm long, whiteish but more like sesame seedS or a grain look. Is that normal?
I’m washing like a madwoman, hands are like paper and always chapped with all the washing, and I’m constantly paranoid I can feel them wriggling in my butt. I never saw a live one on my DD (Torch test etc) or myself. I don’t have any symptoms not does DH. Do I have them?
She’s in nappies so do the eggs spread less?
She wakes up, we wash her hands, shower, wash hands millions of times in the day, fresh PJs daily (did that before anyway), sheets cleaned every other day, hoover etc.
