Worms are parasites that breed internally within a human body and depend upon the body to house and feed them.
The intestinal types of worms find their way into the stomach, intestinal tract, bowel, and lungs where they survive from the diet of their host.

Non-prescription anti-worm medication really is the best treatment.
