Helminthiasis, or Helmintic invasions, caused by parasitic worms.To date, more than three hundred species of helminthiasis are known.About two hundred varieties of parasites are capable of affecting the human body.

The appearance of one or more of the above signals is the reason for contacting the infectologist or parasitologist.
If the patient ensures that he has noticed something similar to worms in Kala, it is necessary, however, to perform appropriate studies to prove the presence of parasites in the body.It may seem especially impressable that the helminths are present in the stool.Most of the time, people see fragments of the intestinal mucosa in intestinal movements, which usually come out with feces.
Victory infection occurs through people who are their carriers - anthroponic helminties or after contact with invased animals - Zooe Helminthiasis.The main path of transmission of the infection is fecal oral, less often percutaneous (the parasite is introduced into the body through the skin) and transitory (through insect bites by egg conveyors or helminth larvae).
How is the treatment of a parasitic infection?
If there is a suspicion that the parasites on the body have begun, it is recommended to do the appropriate tests and undergo an exam.Helminthiasis is perfectly treated with cheap anti -helmintic medications produced in the form of tablets.They are not accepted for so long.Sometimes a regular treatment course lasting three to five days is sufficient.Synthetic medications may be used, whose safety and clinical efficiency are proven.
Only the doctor is able to choose the right medicine for parasites, as well as prescribing the correct scheme of their administration and dosage.Self -mate or "internet treatment" can lead to serious consequences.It should be remembered that some medications have a teratogenic effect that is dangerous for the fetus, others require dosage calculation, etc.Moreover, in the process of studying the rules for taking medicines already registered, they can be adjusted, which is not always prescribed in the instructions.
The result of the disease is often favorable.It all depends on the pathogen, the degree of invasion, the target body.However, it will be serious, especially if the central nervous system (central nervous system), eyes, heart (extra -meshe and tissue) is affected by parasites.
Do I need to take drugs for parasites for prevention?
As for preventive administration of antiparasitic medicines, it is impossible to say with confidence that they should not be taken.However, everyone should not do this without thinking of a row.After all, these medications are by no means as harmless as many believe.These are the same medications, which no doctor only advises to drink.
Taking preventive parasite drugs can be shown to people living in uncovered states with a bad economic and social structure, in countries where medicine is at a low level or to people living in their home and having a large number of pets.
According to international recommendations, it is advisable to take antiprasitic preparations for parasites such as a prevention (after a preliminary consultation with a veterinarian) - at least twice a year, and people living in Southern Wild Territories with a high percentage of population infection and weak medicine.
Are popular remedies effective against parasites?
Currently, there is no single folk remedy to combat helminths that would be really effective and safe.Many of these medications (most of the time filtering) include components such as cloves, tansy flowers, Aspen bark extract, garlic, worm wood.In such small doses, they do not have the desired effect, but can cause a perverted location of helminths.In fact, under the influence of weak Degelmentikov, the parasites in the body are able to change their usual location site.Thus, helminths can penetrate the intestinal wall and enter the abdominal cavity.
In addition, plants used in the treatment of helminthiasis are quite toxic in the necessary concentration and have many side effects that parasitic pharmaceutical products.Herbs such as Wormwood and Tans are unacceptable to use children up to twelve, during pregnancy, with kidney disease, liver (severe toxic hepatitis), hearts.
Active biological additives, which have been recently announced in the media, are simply useless.Unlike pharmaceutical products, they do not undergo a mandatory study, they do not have a clearly defined dose basis.
Antiparasitic programs and means such as "monastic teas" are speculation about a common problem and a trick for naive people.Do not follow obsessive advertising on the internet and use your body as a tank for experiments.
Remember that treatment and prevention of helminthiasis should be under the control of a doctor.Self -duty can lead to the chronic process and the development of serious complications.
