Tried to see if there was already a thread about this but the search is still not working. My 6 y/o has had threadworms for a few days now, I've given him a tablet a couple of days ago but it's still not working yet. I think it said it might take a few days. I was thinking, apart from trying to maintain hygiene (which is hard as germs and dirty places seem to be a magnet for his hands and mouth!) are there any home remedies that work well and fast?
I've read something about drinking crushed garlic juice or lemon juice, but is there something I can actually put on the ahem affected area to stop him scratching it and reinfecting himself? A cream of any sort?
thanks!
