Is Eating Cherries With Worms Inside Harmful?

Is it going to do anything other than kill a worm if I eat a cherry with a worm in. Went camping, took bag of cherries from neighbors but did not know they don't spray them. Family and I ate them. Found worms in the ones we brought home and cut open to eat. I got sick up there but noone else and I only ate one cherry. Just wondering if eating the worms will make us sick of if I am safe to not tell the ones who may be tramatized from the thought of eating a worm. Thanks.

Hello,

If you have no clinical symptoms than you may need not to worry. You can take bandy plus like anti Parasitic medication to kill the parasite. It contains broad spectrum anti Parasitic drug like ivermectin plus albendazole.
