A member asked:

I have pinworms in my nose and throat. the doctors here in canada do not believe me, even though i took in several samples. they will not even exami?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doesn't happen: Like many living things pinworms have developed a specialized life cycle that requires their eggs be ingested, hatch in the intestines and adults lay eggs at the anus. The cycle repeats itself. They cannot live in your nose & throat any more than you can live on the sun. You may have something there that makes you itch, but if you call this pinworms they will consider you bonkers.
