Hi,
Live or dead worms might come out after taking anti worm medicine.
Eggs also might come out.
Nothing to worry, medicine will work against this infection.
If require repeat this dose after one week.
Local part might be sore or some irritation might be there.
After cure of infection it will be alright.
You may apply antibiotic cream on affected part.
Keep local hygiene clean and dry.
Ok and take care.
