No, worms do not typically cause constipation. Constipation is usually the result of issues with the digestive system, such as a lack of dietary fiber, dehydration, or certain medical conditions. Worms can infest the intestines, which can lead to various gastrointestinal symptoms, but constipation is not a common symptom associated with worm infestations.
Common symptoms of intestinal worm infestations may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and fatigue. If you suspect you have a worm infestation or are experiencing symptoms related to your digestive system, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. They can determine the cause of your symptoms and recommend the appropriate treatment if a worm infestation is suspected.
