Trouble with Milk Frog please help!

Did the vet ask for a fecal sample? Did you take one with you for them to test? What meds did they give you? Tent should have given you instructions on how to administer them?

And to be blunt and honest, if a vet gave you meds for "stress and a headache from circling in the same spot", they are clueless about amphibians and I would find another vet. Or better yet, contact Dr. frye. His info is on here somewhere, I just don't have the link on my phone.

I haven't tried worms cause he is only a few weeks old and I assumed that those would be suitable for larger or at least older frogs I will try feeding with tongs if it doesn't take them from my hands. I would have liked to contact this doctor but if he is in the US I guess I can only go with what I can find here. He did seem a bit clueless, he wasn't even sure if the frog circling was normal but as a newbie even I thought that was a bit odd the first time I saw it. Sorry I don't have any details about the medication that was administered, the vet didn't give me any paperwork or anything just a syringe with the solution for parasites. I would have brought a fecal sample, I was even thinking about it in the car on the way there but because he hasn't been eating I haven't been able to get one.
