Q: Long Lasting Effects of Gastroenteritis?

Hi.

I recently suffered a very intense bout of gastro, it took about 2-3 weeks on antibiotics for the pains and effects of the sickness to stop, and the after effects from what I now consider a weakened stomach took even longer to clear up. But now when I go to the toilet, my anus I guess is sore or itchy. Its like the infection travelled down all the way and hasnt entirely left. Hmmm. I thought maybe somehow I got worms as an after effect of the gastro, is this possible? I'm travelling right now, in foreign countries, so what can I do!
