Best Answer

There are different medications, both prescribed and over the counter that can be used to treat worm infestations.

In humans, threadworm can be cured by taking a single pill.

With animals, wormers can be bought at most shops, although if it is a serious infestation, it is worth taking the animal to a veterinary clinic since some forms such as heartworm can be fatal.

There is no call for immediate alarm. The "worms" you see inside are likely maggots, fly larvae. Maggots do not eat live flesh, and in fact, during the Vietnam War, medics and surgeons who found soldiers with maggots in their wounds were often encouraged by the fact. Maggots are actually quite sanitary, and are sometimes used today in medical treatments to prevent or treat gangrene. It is important that you seek medical treatment, either at an emergency room or in a neighborhood free clinic.
