Hello,

You have to clean all your room with disinfectant , wash all your clothes and bed sheets. wash every time before eating , don't keep your fingers at perianal area, cut your nails. If symptoms not improved you can take tablet bandy plus albendazole with ivermetrin stat dose followed by repeat the dose after 2 weeks. If symptoms not improved please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
