Parasites, perhaps, are one of the most unpleasant forms of life that lives in a person's body or animal. It is not the custom to talk to it publicly. Any pronunciation of this pest often causes only disgust in the face and disgust. People would rather not think about their existence. They do not know where they come and how to get rid of them, but such trivial attitudes can lead to irreversible consequences.
Scientists have long been proving the fact that parasites cause a large number of diseases. In addition, the percentage of damage to the human name is critical of 95%.
Which parasites and their type
It is generally accepted that parasites are only living in the intestines, but this is far from the case. In the human body, worms can be localized in many organs and systems - in the muscles, blood, joints, eyes, brain and spinal cord. Most of them are exposed to gastrointestinal tract, heart, liver and lungs.
There are many types of pests.
In structure, they can be divided into three groups:
- Trematodes - worms (blood, pulmonary, liver, also staying in the intestines);
- Nematoda - round worms (ascarides, pinworms, vlasov)
- Cestodes - Ribbon Worms (Pork and Bull Champion)
All of them are often found in the human body, so we only consider the most common parasites.
Trematod:
- Pulmonary trematodes-have egg-shaped, red-brown body with small spikes. It affects the lungs, causing inflammation, exudative pleurisy, focal fibrosis and lung cancer.
- Hepatic trematodes, or hepatic bicarry in the form resemble sheets of 30-50 mm long and 8-13 mm wide, have a suction cup. It damages the liver membrane and, clogging the bile duct, can completely block the bile outflow. It can cause cirrhosis, yellow disease and liver cancer.
- Schistosomes or blood-bacing bars in a size of 1-2 cm, whose eggs cause increased spleen, liver, lymph nodes. It can cause bladder cancer.
Nematoda:
- Tip - small round worm up to 10 cm. Symptoms of their presence are severe itching in the anus. Usually during the brushing of the parasite eggs below the nails, leading to the second infection.
- Soldiides are a large representative of round worms. The length can reach 40 cm. It can be sent from one person to another. Infections occur through water and food.
- Trichinella-in the human body falls due to the inadequate processed meat that a person eats. From the intestines with blood flow, the larvae enters the muscles, where they prefer to locate.
- Vlasovalov - small worms, larvae that cause acute symptoms to resemble appendicitis. As a result of body poisoning, anemia develops with this pest life.
Cestodes or Ribbon Worms:
- Bull Teken - Length can reach 18 m. It is considered one of the most dangerous types of worms. It is localized in the colon, causing severe poisoning with their life products, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, allergies and problems with the nervous system.
- Echinococcus is the smallest slunist in size not exceeding 9mm. Infection affects the liver and lungs with the risk of developing high cysts and tumors.
Symptoms of parasites in humans
It is not always possible to feel the presence of worms in the body if he has a strong immune system, which is currently able to withstand pest attacks. For some time he will be healthy. However, in turn, immunity will decrease and the body will begin to give the first signal reporting the presence of an uninvited guest.
Each type of pest has a different localization area and can cause a variety of symptoms depending on their position in the human body. But some of them are common to all species:
- Intestinal disorders are one of the clear signals of the presence of worms. It can be pain in the stomach, diarrhea, or otherwise constipation, bloating, all difficulties lies in the fact that these signs are rarely associated with many other uncomplicated gastrointestinal diseases by the presence of parasites;
- High requirements for sweetness - after all, it is a very high and nutritious environment for parasites;
- Low fever. At the same time, there are no other symptoms of the disease.
- Anemia - the human body stops grabbing nutrients, especially iron.
- Allergies -Suddenly lost and eliminated skin rash, which is less treated with special medicines. Reactions can also be stronger - bronchospasm or pulmonary edema.
- Losing weight or weight - The reason is hidden in the body's struggle with parasites for nutrients, which is inadequate. A set of excess weight occurs due to persistent hunger
- Muscle pain and joints-oscurs due to the movement of parasites on the body and the occurrence of muscle inflammation;
- Dental grinding is also a sign of a bright infection. This is the reaction of the nervous system to a particular irritant;
- The deterioration of human immunity is wasting many sources to combat pests, which is why the disease is difficult to diagnose;
REFERENCE! When enterobius infection, in addition to other symptoms, itching unbearable appears in the anus. This is because the women of pinworms crawl out at night to lay eggs, which can cause strong burning.
The emergence of such symptoms individually or aggregate should be awake and think about the possibility of damage to the helminths. Previously to diagnose their presence, the less harm to the body caused the body due to delayed treatment.
Way of entering the body
Traditionally it is believed that it will be infected with parasites only by dirty hands. This is not entirely true, as the worm is extensive anywhere. For example, an animal coat is a worm carrier and lamblia. Dog lice also tolerate worm eggs.
Soldiides can enter the body through fruits and vegetables -unpredictable, herbs, dirty hands. Properly cooked meat, without adequate processing - a direct way to infection with trichinellosis, and not enough salted fish, sushi - into opisthorchiasis and diphylobothrium latum.
Conventionally, all methods of infection can be divided into:
- Relationship-households-from humans to humans, from animals or household goods;
- Through blood insects;
- Active - when larvae penetrates the skin or mucous membranes during bathing in the reservoir, contact with infected soil;
- Alimentary - through food, water, uninterrupted hands.
Diagnostics
Diagnostics to determine parasites must be performed prophylactically, although no obvious symptoms are detected. If the infection with the worm is suspected, it is more important to explain the type of pest and confirm its presence for the appointment of appropriate treatment.
Diagnostic methods include:
- Vegetative resonance testing is a relatively expensive, but very accurate research method. Allows you to determine the type of pathogen.
- Blood examination for enzymes - antibodies and antigens are recognized, which is produced by the body only in the event of damage to the parasite. It is also a relatively expensive method, but at the same time allows you to determine more than 150 types of helminths.
- The study of stools for worm eggs is a bit informative, but the most affordable way. Analysis is recommended to run three times for several days.
To explain the diagnosis, ultrasound, endoscopy, eradication of enterobiasis and general blood tests can also be performed.
Parasitic treatment
If as a result of the diagnosis, the presence of parasites in the human body has been confirmed, then the doctor, taking into account the type of pest, selects a comprehensive treatment regimen. It needs to be comprehensive, eliminating both symptoms of damage and parasites itself. This is the only way to get rid of helminths and restore the work of the immune system.
Drug
The prerequisite for treatment is the use of antiparasitic drugs. Dosage and treatment regimens are established by the doctor depending on the diagnosis.
IMPORTANT! It should apply chemicals to worms only after consulting a specialist. This drug group acts badly against the liver and can lead to serious complications!
Preparation that relieves allergic reactions and eliminating intoxication is also used.
Traditional medical help
Non -traditional drug advice should be used prophylactically and in the treatment of certain types of lesions as part of complex therapy. This is especially true in the treatment of children and pregnant women, as chemicals are too toxic to them.
One of the most popular ways is wormwood grass and tansy flowers. On their basis, decoctions are provided and enema is made.
Preparations where paralysis is paralyzed in the worm, as a result they are released with stools.
To prepare a stew, 25 grams of inflorescence tansy are used, poured with boiling water and cost 50 minutes. They use 120 ml three times a day. The dose is reduced to 15 ml for children.
When using wormwood, take 10 g of dried grass, pour 300 ml of boiling water and demand about half an hour. It is taken about half an hour before eating for 70ml.
Attention should be paid to food that expels parasites. All known pumpkin seeds are a great way to get rid of pests, and to be safe.
From the lesser known - fox mushrooms are excellent helpers in the fight against any kind of parasites and their eggs. Healing features are in dry and raw form.
Don't forget about the bow - the worm doesn't like it. As a remedy, you can use gruel from one center onion filled with 300 ml of water. Next, you have to wait 12 hours, filter the resulting infusion and divide it into four parts. You should take every one day a day.
Today's parasitic topic is very relevant. It is necessary to consciously approach your health and in time to identify the symptoms that indicate infection. Make sure you consult your doctor for diagnostics and detailed consultation, as well as observe the measures of preventive safety using time recipes for traditional medicine.
