Headache
Many people suffer from headaches on a regular basis, but with a parasitic infection, individuals may have a nagging headache that lasts longer than would be expected. This may feel different depending on the person but can be a general ache or a throbbing pain in the head.
Head pain usually occurs about a week after getting the infection and can be treated with over-the-counter pain relief medications. However, if an infection is suspected, speak with a doctor about the best options.
