To what extent can worms damage our digestive system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Parasitic Worms: Humans are susceptible to many parasitic worms, which generally infest the intestinal tract but can spread and thrive elsewhere in the body. While some are serious and even fatal if left untreated, others have much milder symptoms.
