A type of parasitic worm is flat worms, more commonly known as tapeworms. Tapeworms are found in animals who graze or drink contaminated water. They can be passed to humans by undercooked food from an infected animal, or an infected individual who did not wash their hands properly. Top symptoms are nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, excessive hunger or loss of appetite and fatigue. Tapeworms  can be treated by a oral medication known as Praziquantel. This medication paralyzes the tapeworms, that will be passed through a bowel movement. There are many ways to avoid tapeworms which are avoid eating raw fish and meat, cook meat thoroughly and wash your hands before and after using restroom and preparing meals. ]]> 2021-07-18 18:42:06 UTC https://padlet.com/callie_sloan18/n1j92z57mfm40z9n/wish/1653816794
