Hi,
From history it seems that he might be having eosinophilia giving this problem.
Cause of having eosinophilia might be due to worm infestation as it is likely as he is having anemia which is caused by worms.
Go for stool test for ova and cyst.
Consult your doctor and discuss about all these doubts.
Ok and take care.
