My daughter is being treated for worms. She was at her father's house with her daughter from another relationship before she started treatment. Does her daughter also need to undergo treatment? Do the people in her daughter's maternal family circle also need to undergo treatment?

If a child is diagnosed with worms and has been in close contact with other household members, it is recommended to treat all members of the household to prevent the spread of the infection. However, not every person who has been in contact with the infected child necessarily needs to undergo treatment, especially if they have not shown any symptoms or been diagnosed with the infection themselves.
