pinworms : Gay & Black Glossary

pinworms
Wriggling intestinal parasites about an eighth of an inch long, species Enterobius vermicularis. They cause rectal itching. You can get them non-sexually, but most commonly by rimming or by blowing someone who has screwed someone else without washing thoroughly afterward. They can be cured with a non-prescription drug such as Vanquin (Pyrvinium), Pamovin (pyrvinium pamoate) or Combantrin (pyrantel pamoate). If anyone gets them in a household, all should be treated to avoid reinfection.
