Gross disgusting PIN worms?!


Question: Gross disgusting PIN worms!?
I got Pin worms either from my sister or the cats, I feel like dieing its so gross! So I was wondering if I can do anything other than take the medication to help it stop faster!? I mean I know wash your hands, and keep away from people, but would washing my bum help at all!? Since thats where the eggs are laid, and I'm not sure if I've had some laid yet but yeah I obviously found one worm!. :[[

Basically I wanna get rid of this feeling of me being totally disgusting before it gets out to everyone!. :[[[[ Is there any medications for cats for this!? Since if they have it and I get better couldn't I catch it again from them!?

Also does snuggling with your cats nightly put you at risk!? This is what I did before this started and I'm wondering if I should stay away from them until there fully better!. :/ Even though I love sleeping with my kitty in my bed with me!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

From personal experience and from raising two children who had them, heres what I know!. You did not get them from your cat!. And babe if youve seen "one" theres a whole bunch more!. Pinworm eggs are, believe it or not, inhaled!. Approximately 4-6 weeks after inhaling them they mature and begin to lay eggs around the anus, this causes a pricking sensation and or itching so badly that scratching the area is common especially in children, this is how it is spread from one person to the next!. The eggs get lodged under the fingernails and are deposited on whatever is touched by the infected individual, the eggs that are not transferred to the hands may fall loose onto clothing, bedsheets even the dust in your house!. Ok with that explained, here's a way to get rid of them, it may be out of the ordinary but I am here to tell you as a former sufferer, it works like a charm!.
Either go to the store and purchase a clove of garlic, in each clove there are little ones, each day swallow one with a glass of water as if it were a pill, do this until the entire clove is gone, or go to a restaraunt and order yourself a super garlicie meal, i!.e!. shrimp scampi several times over a period of about 2 weeks, and enjoy!! Now let me tell you why this works, it's simple really, although gross!. The pinworm survives by eating your poop, and the garlic of course eventually ends up there, when the pinworm eats it, it kills it!. It works so well that you should be feeling better in a couple of days, but a word to the wise, remember the 4-6 week gestation period, eventhough you may be feeling better in a couple of days continue with garlic "pills" until they are gone, the intial egg layers will be killed off immediately, but when their eggs hatch they'll be looking for food, make sure youve spiked it with lots of garlic and they will never live long enough to lay new eggs, hence stopping the cycle!. Also make sure you properly clean your clothes and linens too, a good washing will do, this eliminates the risk of inhaling anymore!. Good Luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
