6 roundworms you do NOT want inside you

Roundworms: The Parasites You Really Don’t Want to Host

Roundworms are a type of parasitic worm that can infect far more than just your gut. These microscopic invaders can settle into your intestines, liver, lungs, skin, muscles—even your reproductive organs.


Infections can start in two main ways: Larvae can burrow directly through your skin Or, you unknowingly ingest microscopic eggs through food, water, pets, or contaminated surfaces.


Here’s a breakdown of some of the most common roundworms—and the symptoms they can cause:


Hookworms: Hookworms invade the gut and cause anemia, blood loss, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, and itchy skin rashes where larvae enter.


Ascaris: A common intestinal worm. Causes belly pain, digestive upset, and in severe cases, intestinal blockages or slowed growth in kids. Worms can migrate to the lungs, triggering cough or breathing issues.


Pinworms: Pinworms infect the colon and even female reproductive organs. Known for causing intense anal itching and have been found in sinuses and nasal passages.


Strongyloides: Strongyloides reproduce inside your gut—and their new larvae can reinfect you from the inside out, creating a vicious cycle.


Trichinella: Known to infect muscles, causing stomach upset, fever, muscle pain, facial swelling, pink eye, and rash.


Whipworms: Can cause bloody, mucus-filled diarrhea, abdominal pain, and in severe cases, rectal prolapse (yep—exactly what it sounds like).


If you’ve been dealing with strange or stubborn symptoms, it might be time to explore the parasite connection.
