Worms in humans.

Reading on MedX. Worms have been with humans thousands of years. Study shows they are beneficial, Harmless. Stop aging, arthritis and bunch of other stuff. Get rid of them and problems with the aforementioned arise. Same with pigeons?

Could not agree more Hal.

There are lot of human worms.

Same, had new hip 13 years ago been brilliant, hands knees and bumps a daisy now.
Cramp and have to manipulate to get my hands working backache with doing only the menial of tasks, pain in the arms etc;

Would like to know if they are RAG WORMS or just ordinary earth worms that do the trick.

Regards.

Bit late but when I had the first hip replaced the surgeon said the other was on the blink and would soon need replacing.

Friend told me to get some Glucosamine & Chondroitin tablets and take two a day I keep them in the car and have taken two a day since my hip was replaced.

Never had a problem with the other hip since, even today it is the replaced hip that gives me some jip.

Think I am too old for it to continue being effective but may help you, they are cheap and any relief from arthritis is welcome.  

Regsrds.

Hax knew problems since I was 37ish due to a lot of football. Long story short. Specialist said 65 before we can give you a knee operation...pathetic..honestly the pain is unreal sometimes but that England for you

Clinical trials to combat Covid-19 using Ivermectin, which is a popular pigeon and other livestock wormer, currently taking place in Latin America. Apparently it had a positive effect on the SARS virus.

Pathetic to say the least etc Ray 65 before you can have a chance of a new type knee there. Bet Boris wouldn't be waiting around that long if he required much of the same type of operation .

I couldn't believe it,  I walked out still suffering now but taking glucosamine helps

also when you think the queen and philip are nearly 100 years old, and still active, they wont be waiting for treatment either .......they will be recieving life prolonging drugs , and the very best medical treatments, also the very best food, not microwave rubbish ......you never get a major royal living less than 100 years, margaret excluded she was a raving alcoholic .........the royals are the highest paid benefit scroungers in the uk

i have osteo arthritis in my wrists and one ankle ....flexiseq cream is brilliant product all natural to ,about £10 online lasts me a month ...thats interesting colin regards the ivermectin

I was the first to have the chance to use ivomectin for killing lice in pigeons.

A pharmasist friend diluted some and told me how to use it ( well documented in the BHW)

It was initially used by by farmers for treating Sheep and only available by licence.

Since developed in different strengths to treat many animals for lice etc;

One drop.

Maybe, as many other drugs found other uses.

I never used it and still had the small bottle until I had to part with my feathered friends and threw it out with a cabinet full of other none used, just  in case products.

We are just finding out the problems involved in playing sports when young and straining our bodies.

 Many sports persons are suffering and counting the cost.

I would not like to have to decide on many matters regarding treatments by the NHS.

Would be very nice if one could just walk into a hospital and have immediate treatment.

Although I would have thought the amount of pain involved would have a significant affect on priority in any case.

Louts , drugies, knife victims (many by fighting among gangs) overweight individuals often also smokers are all amongst others cluttering up the realy deserving being treated.

They have to be treated immediately.

The NHS workers cannot be in two places at once.

This virus  is also a major problem if you attempt to come to any reasonable conclusion it just gets more of a problem.

Just hope you get your op as soon as possible, friend two doors down had one last year, no problems and running around like a two year old, hope the same for you.

Regards.

I posted as such just a few days ago.
Willy - nilly treatment came well be the first step - and unnecessary one to the detriment of the bird.
Weakening the immune system via hampering natures very constitution for healthy pigeons.
Never had a problem with worms, nor canker.
Liked to see Lice - club members loathed it though - on the birds. They cleanse and keep the feathering immaculate! Why the 'Smock' was a much needed in use item lol.
So, which was good, I always bathed the pigeons on basket days.

Real problem down here etc now Misty with the head trauma scenario with our local football code. Bit more contact involved here than that round ball game of yours & many are becoming rather concerned about the long term effects here after leaving the game & moving on. Old days here some one would just give you a king hit on the field & they then would throw a bucket of water over you & tell you to toughing up as such. Now if such a thing happens, its straight of the field & a holiday for 2 weeks to recover from the trauma factor, hopefully.

Easy to mount a case etc Daz that modern day type medicine, in a pigeon sense has failed the sport in general on average these days. Spin & bling may be ok to a certain degree, but when it's helping to put the sport on a slippery road to no where, it becomes some what of a concern I suggest . & take care.

Since 1970 I have said the sport would be ruined by going against nature.

Said going continental would be the worst possible step to take.

Clinical conditions would ruin the pigeons immune system.

Pigeons would become drug reliant.

Would be worn out before they should have matured.

Diseases would increase.

All in black and white not in hindsight.

Those whose only interest was money and taking advantage of anything available just scoffed and said I should just enjoy the sport and not worry 
about anything else.

These same fanciers can be seen in the BHW and the RP outside their lofts, full of pigeons needing constant medication, vets best friends, having won races that are no more than the best of an unhealthy lot.

Pigeons spent after the yearling stage.

Commercialism and selfishness along with unconcernn for anything other than self has ruined a sport the miners and grass root fanciers made worthwhile and they have ruined.

Regards.

Sad to say, it is 'Win and all costs' to too many fanciers.
A very large % are fed rubbish via names stealing a march and for 'Back handers' advertisement's for the money boys.
Funny enough, one fancier allowed himself being caught by a club mate with a batch of thistles .... for his water drinkers. He impressed upon that fancier not to say a word ... soon many were collecting thistles.

Actually 'Thistles' are very good for healthy properties. Every bit, leaves, stalks and roots, can be eaten. they were once, and often served up in dinners and salads' etc. Like the nettle leaves... good for iron etc.

Your maybe moving away from the subject matter here I suspect etc Daz I'm Subject is Worms in humans & if you wont ask the big question I will so who here has worms & what medication do you take to combat the issue       .      

The way some worm around Knackered you should be inundated with replies.

Regards.

its said, a dog will rub its bottom along the ground if it has worms, no idea if its true ........

The point of the study is to seperate the cells that prevent discease. Rather swallow a pill than a worm!

Mine eat tissues. Self serve.

Worms Knackered. Was pointing out past to present and why.
Dogs eat grass. Which get the worms tangled up. Then vomit them out.... or rub the bottoms along the ground. true David.

Like ticks. All sniffing animals get them.... Nature will shift them.
Mind a pain when ferrets get them. Vaseline on them. As they breathe through their back sides, they come out or die. If dead easy to pull out. If not, their head is mostly left in.

Years ago many children used to have worms, several treatments at the time.

Think they decided to opt out because they  could not stand the rubbish humans started putting down their own  throats, bit similar to our feathered friends now.
