hello.  I believe that I am suffering from threadworms due to obvious sign; anal itching around the full moon being the predominant one.  Today I started to do an internal parasite cleanse which involved one tsp of food grade diatamaceous earth and a 2 cups of wormwood tea.  I now have an incredibly itchy rash.  I am wondering if this is normal?

If you take wormwood which contains throne you may have severe side effects like skin redness & burning, rashes, restlessness, changes in the heart rate, nightmares, allergy, porphyria, kidney disorders; stomach ache, numbness of hands & feet or death.  You are suggested to stop taking wormwood tea visit ER, get physically examined. Get stool test & culture done to assess the type of worms you have.

Always take medicines under your treating local doctor.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
