A member asked:
How would i know if my child has a tapeworm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stool test: A lab can examine a stool sample & find segments of tapeworm that generally shed in the stool. Your physician can set that up for you & will likely have them look for other parasites at the same time.
