Gastroenterology Department

If you are experiencing symptoms of intestinal parasites, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting, you should make an appointment with a gastroenterologist. A gastroenterologist is a medical doctor who specializes in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, which includes the stomach, intestines, and other organs in the digestive system. The gastroenterologist will assess your symptoms and may order tests to diagnose and treat the parasite. Depending on the type and severity of the infection, treatments may include medications, dietary changes, or even surgery. A gastroenterologist will be able to provide you with the best course of treatment for your particular situation.

If you suspect you may have intestinal parasites, it is best to consult a doctor. Your doctor can do a physical examination and probably order laboratory tests or imaging studies to detect parasites. Depending on the results, they may prescribe medication to treat the condition. It is important to follow their instructions carefully to ensure the parasites are eradicated and to prevent recurrences. In addition, it is also important to take measures to prevent reinfection, such as washing your hands thoroughly after using the restroom and before handling food.
