    Trichuriasis, ascariasis, and intestinal capillariasis are diseases caused by the parasitic worms Trichuris trichura, Ascaris lumbricoides, and Capillaria philippinensis, respectively. They are transmitted through ingestion of soil contaminated with worm eggs. Trichuriasis affects the large intestine, ascariasis affects the small intestine, and intestinal capillariasis affects the small intestine. Symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and malnutrition. Diagnosis involves finding worm eggs in stool samples. Treatment involves anthelmintic drugs like mebendazole and albendazole.
