Do not worry: Agree with Dr, F. You did not disseminate pin worms. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

If you have pinworm eggs on fingers or under nails, didn't know it (since they're near invisible), and rubbed eye or inner ear, could the eggs take root in either of those places and hatch there?
