Question

I have suffered from past schistosomiasis and trichinosis infections. How should I be treated? Do I need to go to a hospital for professional treatment? How long will it take to see improvement in the treatment process?

Answer

Schistosomiasis is a stubborn parasitic disease, and it is recommended that patients seek targeted treatment at specialty hospitals in schistosomiasis prevention and control areas. Under current medical conditions, the treatment is effective. Although it is uncertain whether Wuhan Hospital is a hospital in an epidemic area, Changde’s hospitals are indeed specialty hospitals for treating schistosomiasis. There are cases where patients have been effectively controlled after receiving treatment in such hospitals. Therefore, it is recommended to go to specialty hospitals in Changde and other places for detailed examinations. If confirmed that the infection has been cleared, there is no need to worry.
