Hello dear friends, I hope you are well.

My major is Microbiology (study of microscopic organisms) I am also interested in photography .

Today I want to show you some pictures of parasitic worms and talk to you about them and how they live and how they cause disease.

I took these pictures by phone(Samsung a 50).

This worm is similar to whip and is known as whipworm which causes whipworm infectionIt is found in abundance in different parts of the world, especially in the tropics.

Infection is more common among children.

Adult worms lay up to 10,000 eggs a day, which are excreted in the feces, which can be pathogenic after a few weeks.

As you can see, the seeds of this worm are large brown and prominent on both sides, which enter the human body and intestines through nutrition.
These eggs are found in the soil of nutrients and fruits that are not well washed with water

And you should always be careful in washing your hands

Treatment of this whipworm infection in most cases with Mebendazole and Albendazole has been successful.
