More than 250 kinds of parasites can survive in the human body! According to statistics quoted by the World Health Organization, approximately 4. 5 billion people have been infected with parasites. This figure includes not only residents of "third world" countries, but it has also been determined that more than 30% of all residents in Europe are carriers. One can live and work in peace, without even suspecting that the intruder has settled in his body. So maybe they are safe because they are not troublesome? But even with this view in mind, one must be able to identify the parasite, determine its type and figure out how to treat the parasite and what carelessness can turn into.
Why does the parasite start?
How can parasites appear in the human body, after all, they cannot come from the air? In fact, the mechanism of infection is simple-unwashed hands often become the cause of infection, from where the larvae enter the gastrointestinal tract (gastrointestinal tract), where they successfully become adults and remain in the human body, safeIt swallowed all the most valuable: vitamins and minerals. . .
In some cases, the parasite can be passed on to a person through sexual contact. Therefore, you may be infected with trichomoniasis, worms, and hirsutism (usually pubic louse). Pets and personal hygiene products (towels, towels) are at high risk of infection.
It is not difficult to find that the cause of internal parasites is quite plain. Of course, in most cases, children are infected, unless the infection is sexually transmitted.
We have found the cause, and now we will find out which signs of internal parasites tell you that you need to start treatment.
How to determine whether there are parasites in the body?
If the important activities of the "neighbors" have no symptoms, some signs of parasites in the human body can still be detected even without a special diagnosis. These signs include:
- Flatulence;
- Flatulence
- constipation;
- The whole body is weak, because the body does not receive important substances, which provides them with parasites;
- Female white discharge indicates trichomoniasis;
- Stunted children;
- Allergic rash and dermatitis on the skin;
- Exhaustion and long-term infection.
Although these signs are only indirect indicators of the presence of parasites, they may be a strong reason for a complete diagnosis.
clinical diagnosis
For many years, the diagnosis of parasites in the human body was limited to the analysis of the presence of roundworm eggs in the feces. This method allows the infection to be determined only in the final stage of the disease. Currently, the diagnosis has been significantly improved. In order to identify parasites in the body, this type of research is used today:
- ELISA or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Allow you to detect the presence of corresponding antibodies;
- Hemoscopy
- ART-nutrition resonance test;
- Bioresonance therapy.
Private clinics provide more and more new methods and new equipment to diagnose parasitic diseases, so it is very important to consult an immunologist for advice. Experts will tell you how to check for parasites in your body in the most informative way.
It is very important to recognize the presence of parasites in time, and their long stay in the body will adversely affect human life. In many cases, the infection is fatal.
Are all parasites harmful to humans?
Recently, scientists have begun to study the relationship between autoimmune diseases and the important activities of parasites. The conclusion drawn by the American researchers was shocked!
Facts have proved that parasites living in the human body can also benefit by stimulating the immune system.
For many centuries, people have coexisted with parasites and formed a specific symbiotic relationship. Now, the number of people infected has been greatly reduced, and people are more susceptible to autoimmune diseases.
Beneficial parasites in the human body can activate their own immune regulation, so that the host can be double-protected. Therefore, intestinal worms can inhibit the inflammatory process in the body. Research on this relationship continues to this day. It is impossible to predict what other discoveries they will bring.
Types of parasites
According to the nature of the impact of all parasites on the human body, conditionally divide them into subgroups. The types of parasites in the human body, as well as the symptoms and treatments of parasites in the human body:
| Parasite names in humans | Harmful effects | symptom | How to kill parasites in the body | Infection mechanism |
| worm | They have an inhibitory effect on the intestinal flora. Destroy metabolism and prevent nutrient absorption. | Skin rash, swollen lymph nodes, liver and spleen, jaundice, fever. | For treatment, many special anthelmintics are used. | Through food, close contact with animals leads to common sanitary items. |
| worm | They cause the development of various diseases of the intestines, gallbladder and lungs. | Low-grade fever, diarrhea (initial), dry cough, acute allergic reaction. | After a year, the parasites will die on their own because they cannot reproduce in the body. Anthelmintics are used for treatment. | Due to poor hygiene. |
| fungus | They may be the cause of tumor diseases. | There are white patches on the mucous membranes, the skin is red and peeling, and the affected area is itchy. | Treatment depends on the location of the fungus. Fungal medicines come in the form of ointments, medicated shampoos, and special treatment solutions. | Transmission through ordinary items. The health of the infected person is affected. |
| worm | Have an adverse effect on the intestines. | Anal itching, allergies, nausea and vomiting. | Treat with anthelmintics. | Failure to observe personal hygiene and food. |
| Giardia | Affects the liver of the host. | Digestive system diseases, periodic fever, diarrhea. | Enzymes, bile, antibiotics. Antihistamine treatment. | Through household goods, as well as food. |
| Chlamydia | They contribute to the development of diabetes and infertility, damage the liver, and affect the pancreas. | In women, this is almost asymptomatic-urination may be more frequent. In men, urethritis, white discharge, and pain are manifested when urinating. | Antibiotics are mandatory for sexual partners. | Unprotected sex. Rarely-through personal hygiene products. |
| Trichomonas | They affect the oral cavity and cause disorders of the genitourinary system and intestinal tract. The host's vascular system is also damaged. Can cause tumors. | When urination is reduced, foamy bubbles are discharged from the external genital organs of men and women. | Antibiotics, immunomodulators, enzymes. Local external treatment: women who use vaginal disinfection suppositories, and men who use disinfectant solution for men. | Sexually transmitted infections. |
| Toxoplasma gondii | Affect the mucous membranes, leading to genitourinary system and intestinal dysfunction. Long-term "cohabitation" is full of mental retardation. | It is asymptomatic or disguised as various diseases. It will be displayed after a thorough inspection. | Psychotherapy, immunomodulators, antihistamines, toxoplasma therapy. | Through meat and vegetables. When a pregnant woman is infected, the baby will get the infection in the uterus. Infection from domestic cats. |
| Fascial Disease | Cause hepatitis and cause allergic reactions. | Allergic symptoms appear against the background of general malaise. The chronic form is characterized by liver pain. | Antihistamine, calcium chloride. If complications occur, hepatitis can be treated. | Through meat, unwashed herbs and untreated water. |
A list of these parasites in the human body will help you know when to seek medical care. Infectious disease experts will prescribe treatment plans based on the types of parasites in the human body. You should not postpone your appointment with your doctor and wait for complications-any disease is easier to cure in its initial stage.
