I have a 10 year old daughter that constantly gets the worms. They are tape worms
about 1/2 inch long. She has had them 3 times in the past year. What can we do
to get rid of this problem. She is a very clean little girl and this situation is driving
her crazy (not to mention me). Any information is greatly appreciated. Could she
keep getting them forever?

Hi

Can you describe the worm to me in as much detail as you can?

It is a small skinny white worm. It looks like
a pin worm. It bothers her most at night.
Thank You, Brandy
