  1. Effective prevention and control measures: It is necessary to help children develop good hygiene habits, such as washing hands before meals and after use, and applying hand sanitizer to wash hands after going out and returning home. Mothers must also help their babies regularly trim their fingernails, iron wash bedding and toys. Meanwhile, drying blankets and clothes under the sun can also effectively kill worm eggs.

  2. After infection, it is necessary to isolate and take medication in a timely manner: pinworms are highly contagious, so it is important to isolate babies who are infected with pinworms. Similarly, due to the strong infectivity of pinworm disease, collective medication must also be taken during treatment in order to achieve the goal of cure.

  3. Recommended drugs: Treatment drugs are divided into two categories: oral and external medications. In order for the baby to be cured quickly, oral and external medication should be used simultaneously to ensure the complete killing of adult insects in the body and the elimination of their eggs from the body. But when giving oral medication to babies, be sure to pay attention to the dosage, and the same goes for topical medication!
