<s>[INST] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here... My baby seems to have worms in her stomache. It s 20months old baby boy.He is getting itching in his bowel area,also facing constupation since last 1 week. Denying to eat his food. I though of taking him to the pediatrician, but I have read somewhere that the medicines given for treating stomach worms causes type1 diabities in children.I am really confussed, what to do? Can you please suggest me some ayurvedic medicine without side effect or may be some home remmidy. [/INST] Hello, Anal itching is most likely due to pin worms.  He needs medication that you can often get at the pharmacy.  These medicines are very safe (which is why they are over the counter) and used millions of times a year in many parts of the world.  I've not seen a link to diabetes.  Although I'm an MD, I also pay attention to home remedies and the like, but for this one, you need the medicine that kills the eggs so that the worms stop hatching in his intestines. Pin worms are not serious, are very common, but won't usually self resolve. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care  </s>
