Parasites, perhaps, are one of the most unpleasant life forms that live within the body of a person or animal. It is not customary to talk about them openly. Any mention of these pests usually only causes a fool of the face and disgust. People prefer not to think about their existence. They do not know where they come from and how to get rid of them, but such a frivolous attitude can lead to irreparable consequences.
Scientists have long proved the fact that parasites cause a large number of more harmless diseases. In addition, the percentage of damage to the name of humanity is 95%criticism.
That are parasites and their varieties
It is generally accepted that parasites live only in the gut, but this is far from the case. In the human body, worms can be located in many organs and systems - in muscles, blood, joints, eyes, brain and spinal cord. Above all, they are exposed to the gastrointestinal tract, heart, liver and lungs.
There are many types of these pests.
In structure, they can be divided into three groups:
- Trematodes - worms (blood, pulmonary, liver, also live in the gut);
- Nematodes - round worms (ascarides, pinworms, vlasov)
- Cestodes - Ribbon Worms (Pork and Bull Champion)
They are all often found within the human body, so we consider only the most common parasites.
Trematodes:
- Trematoda-shaped egg-shaped, a reddish-brown body with small thorns. It affects the lungs, causing inflammation, exudative pleurisy, focal fibrosis and lung cancer.
- Hepatic trematoda, or shaped liver bicarry, resembles a sheet of 30 to 50 mm long and 8-13 mm wide, has suction glasses. It damages the liver membrane and clogging the bile ducts, is able to completely block the exit of the bile. It can lead to cirrhosis, jaundice and liver cancer.
- Schistosomes or blood bars in size 1-2 cm, whose eggs cause an increase in the spleen, liver, lymph nodes. It can lead to bladder cancer.
Nematodes:
- Tips - Small round worms up to 10 cm in size. A characteristic symptom of its presence is a severe itching in the anus area. Often, during combing, parasitic eggs fall under nails, which leads to a second infection.
- Askarides are large representatives of round worms. Its length can reach 40 cm. It can be transmitted from one person to another. Infection occurs through water and food.
- Trichinella in the human body falls due to the insufficient processed meat that a person consumed. From the gut with a blood flow, the larvae enter the muscles, where they prefer to locate.
- Vlasovalov - Small worms, whose larvae cause acute symptoms similar to appendicitis. As a result of body poisoning, anemia develops with the life of this pest.
Cestodes or ribbon worms:
- Bull Teken - The length can reach 18 m. It is considered one of the most dangerous worms. It is located in the large intestine, causing severe poisoning with products of your life, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, allergies and problems with the nervous system.
- Echinococcus is the smallest strip range not exceeding 9mm. Infection affects liver and lungs with a high risk of cyst and tumors development.
Human parasitic symptoms
It is not always possible to feel the presence of worms in the body if it has a sufficiently strong immune system that can support the pest attack. For some time he will be healthy. However, later, immunity will decrease and the body will begin to give the first signs that report the presence of non -guest guests.
Each type of plague has a different location location and can cause a variety of symptoms, depending on their position in the human body. And yet, among them there are those that are common to all species:
- Intestinal disorders are one of the obvious signs of the presence of worms. It may be pain in the abdomen, diarrhea or vice -versa constipation, flatulence, all the difficulty lies in the fact that these signs rarely do not relate to many other possible gastrointestinal diseases that are not complicated by the presence of parasites;
- A high need for candy - after all, it is a very high and nutritious quality environment for parasites;
- Periodic low fever. At the same time, there are no symptoms of any other disease.
- Anemia - The human body stops taking nutrients, especially iron.
- Allergies - Suddenly disappearing and disappearing the rash, which is poorly treated with special drugs. The reaction can also be stronger - bronchospasm or pulmonary edema.
- Losing weight or weight gain - the reason is hidden in the body's fight with nutrient parasites, which are not enough. A set of overweight occurs due to a constant feeling of hunger
- Muscles and joint pain in the movement of parasites on the body and the occurrence of muscle inflammation;
- Strinding the teeth is also a very bright sign of infection. This is the reaction of the nervous system to a certain annoying;
- The deterioration of immunity The human body is to waste many resources to combat pests, which is why difficult diseases arise to diagnose;
Reference! When the enterobius infection, in addition to other symptoms, unbearable itching appears in the anus. This is because pinworms females crawl all night to lay eggs, which can cause a strong burning.
The appearance of such individually or aggregate symptoms should alert and make it think about possible damage to helminths. The sooner diagnosed your presence, the less damage to the body will cause the body due to the delay in treatment.
Ways to enter the body
Traditionally, it is believed that it will be infected with parasites only through dirty hands. This is not totally true, as worms of worms are widespread everywhere. For example, the animal coat is a carrier of worms and lamblia. Dog fleas also tolerate worm eggs.
Askarides can enter the body through non -washed fruits and vegetables, herbs, dirty hands. Incorrely cooked meat, without sufficient processing - a direct path to tricelellosis and insufficient salted fish, sushi - for opistchiasis and diilobotrio latum.
Conventionally, all methods of infection can be divided into:
- Contact humans to humans, animals or household items;
- through blood struggle insects;
- Active - When the larva penetrates the skin or mucous membranes while bathing in reservoirs, contact with infected soil;
- Food - Through food, water, uninsy hands.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis to determine parasites should be performed prophylactically, even if no obvious symptoms are not detected. If worm infection is suspected, it is even more important to clarify the type of pest and confirm its presence to appoint proper treatment.
Diagnostic methods include:
- Vegetative resonance test is a very expensive but very accurate research method. Allows to determine the type of pathogen.
- Blood examination for enzymes - antibodies and antigens are recognized, produced by the body only in case of damage to parasites. It is also a very expensive method, but at the same time allows you to determine more than 150 types of helminths.
- The study of egg feces for worms is not informative, but in the most affordable way. It is recommended that the analysis be performed three times for several days.
To clarify the diagnosis, an ultrasound, endoscopy, scraping at enterobiasis and a general blood test can also be performed.
Parasitic treatment
If, as a result of the diagnosis, the presence of parasites in the human body, the doctor, taking into account the type of pests, selects a comprehensive treatment regime. It is necessary to act comprehensively, getting rid of the symptoms of damage and the parasites themselves. This is the only way to completely get rid of the helminths and restore the work of the immune system.
Drug treatment
A prerequisite for treatment is the use of antiparasitic drugs. The dosage and treatment regime is established by a doctor, depending on the diagnosis.
Important! It is necessary to use chemicals against worms only after consulting a specialist. This group of medicines acts adversely in the liver and can lead to serious complications!
Preparations that relieve an allergic reaction and eliminate intoxication are also used.
Help of traditional medicine
Non -traditional medical advice should be used prophylactically and in treating certain types of injuries as part of complex therapy. This is especially true in the treatment of pregnant children and women, as chemicals are very toxic to them.
One of the most popular means is the worm grass and the Tansy flowers. On the basis, the decoctions are prepared and the enemas are made.
Preparations in which there are tansy cause paralysis in worms, as a result of which they are excreted with feces.
To prepare a decoction, 25 grams of tansy inflorescences are used, spilled 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 worm wood, it is necessary to take 10 g of dry grass, pour 300 ml of boiling water and insist for about half an hour. It is taken about half an hour before meals by 70 ml.
Attention should be paid to the foods that expel the parasites. All known pumpkin seeds are a great way to get rid of pests and absolutely safe.
Since the lesser known mushrooms of Raposa, they are excellent assistants in the fight against any kind of parasite and their eggs. The healing properties are possessed in dry and gross form.
Don't forget the bow - your worms don't like it very much. As a medicine, you can use Gruel from a medium onion full of 300 ml of water. Then you need to wait 12 hours, filter out the resulting infusion and divide it into four parts. You should take one portion every day a day.
The topic of parasites today is extremely relevant. It is necessary to consciously approach your health and in time to identify the symptoms that indicate infection.
