Patancheru: District Medical and Health Officer Mojiram Rathod said here that worms in the intestine were spreading ailments in children because of lack of healthy practices.
Speaking at the government school in Lakdaram after launching the de-worming programme, he said that worms enter the body through limbs if the children play in sand. He distributed de-worming tablets to the students.
The DMHO pointed out that the worms after entering the intestine, multiply and gain strength by consuming food. He advised that children suffering from various diseases caused by worms should not defecate in the open, as they would get mixed with sand.
Rathor stated that children with such worms suffer from lack of growth, and would not grow in height despite gaining years. They would suffer from fatigue, stomach pain, loss of resistance power, lack of concentration, vomiting, indigestion, constipation.
Local sarpanch Suvarna Manik Reddy advised parents to administer de-worming tablets to their children without fail. Among those present were MEO Rathor, NMS Nirmala and several other local leaders.
