my kid has pinworms and i wanna know how to get rid of them with out meds can he drink lemon juice or not eat.

Answer 1

Supplements and herbs
See age-appropriate dosages of herbal remedies

Black walnut tincture can be helpful in clearing a pinworm infestation. This is a strong botanical, however, and not suitable for infants or small children. For a child age twelve or older, give three drops, three times daily, for no more than seven days.
Garlic is a natural antiparasitic. Give your child one to two capsules, twice daily, for two weeks. If your child is over one year old, you can give him one fresh clove mashed in honey instead, two to three times a day, for two to three weeks.
Wormwood (Artemisia) has antiparasitic properties that will help to clear a case of worms. Give your child one dose, twice daily, for up to one week.
Grapefruit seed extract is a strong antiparasitic. A highly concentrated form, such as Citricidal, Nutrabiotic, or Paramicrocidin, is preferred. For three to seven days, two or three times a day, dilute 5 to 10 drops in a glass of water or juice and have your child drink it. The flavor is very bitter, and your child may need a lot of encouragement to take it.

Answer 2

Pinworms are very contagious, go to the doctor, if you can't afford one go to your local health department. Beg someone for the money. Pinworms (Enterobius vermicularis) are extremely easy to catch from someone who is infected. The infection is spread by tiny eggs deposited around the anus by the worms. When someone with pinworms scratches this area, eggs lodge under the fingernails and can be spread to anything he or she touches. Eggs are also spread by dust, clothing, bedding, or toys. When someone else accidentally eats the eggs, they also become infected with pinworms. When the eggs hatch, new worms crawl back into the intestine to reinfect the same person.Medical Treatment

Albendazole (Albenza) is the most common treatment for pinworms.


Treatment is a single tablet, which kills the worms. There are different strengths for adults and children younger than 2 years.


Because eggs can survive for a few weeks, you will have to take a second dose 2 weeks later to lessen the chance of reinfection.


Mebendazole (Vermox) and pyrantel pamoate (Pin-Rid, Pin-X) also work. They are also taken in a single dose and repeated 2 weeks later.


Because it is common for everyone in a household to have pinworms at the same time, your doctor may recommend that everyone be treated at the same time.


Your doctor may also recommend tap water enemas to help flush out the pinworms and reduce symptoms.


After taking the pills, you should also do the following:


Get into the habit of carefully washing your hands after using the toilet, and before and after eating.


Thoroughly launder all bedding, clothing, and toys to destroy any lingering eggs.


Launder all bedding every 3-7 days for 3 weeks.


Wash underwear and pajamas daily for 2 weeks.

Answer 3

it will be much easier if you give him something to make them leave his system faster, but there must be a reason you dont want to give him.

A home remedy I found once and that you can give him and it cant hurt is..

1 cup of grated Carrot eaten in the morning 1 hour before breakfast for 4-5 days. ( on an empty stomach)



1 tblspn raw Papaya juice mixed with1 tspn of honey to be taken, first thing in the morning. This should be followed by a glass of warm milk, to which 1 tspn of Castor oil has been added. This treatment should be done for 2 days.

Remember pin worms are contagious!
