Stomach ache is one of the most common health issues complained by children. The primary cause of stomach ache is intestinal infection in children. Intestinal infection is otherwise called helminth infection. It is mostly triggered by certain intestinal parasites like worms that live in the intestine. These worms take the child’s nutrition and make the child sick and weaker. Even though different types of intestinal worms cause worm infections the most common culprits are tapeworms, pinworms, roundworms and hookworms. In Ayurveda, the worm infestation is explained as Krimiroga. The causes, symptoms, types and treatment of Krimi are detailed in various Ayurvedic classic books.
