When worms are detected in humans, it is definitely not worth ignoring their symptoms and delaying treatment.It all depends on the type of parasites that settle in the body. This is why it is so important to provide a test for the presence of worms and to choose further treatments.
Human Parasites: Reasons
Parasites can appear in the human body for many reasons.
They can enter the main body in the following ways.
- Diet (through the digestive tract). The most common situation is to drink contaminated water or food.
- Contacts and family (through household items). In practice, this means an infection by other people or pets carrying the worm.
- Transmission. Represents the invasion of worms through blood-sucking insects.
- Transdermal. This means that the parasite enters the body through mucous membranes or skin.
- Parasites may also enter the dust and enter the human body.
Fish is a valuable food recommended to everyone. However, in addition to its benefits, it may also cause harm and become a spreader of parasitic diseases. Therefore, you need to understand which parasites living in fish can cause harm to people.
In fact, the most common parasites in fish organisms are worms. People at risk of getting worms include sea bream, fish and silver bream, but it is important to understand that absolutely any fish can be infected with worms. Boil the fish thoroughly to prevent infection. If this is not done, the possibility of infection remains high. The most dangerous thing is to eat raw fish.
The most popular worms in fish are:
- Schistosomiasis. Most of them live in smelters. Trout, salmon and pink salmon are also found in some places. Careful heat treatment will destroy the worms.
- Siberia/China fl Fortunately. It is found in Amur chebachka, cru fish, carp and Yaz. Ingestion can cause doxorubicin and bronchiectasis.
- Wide ribbon. The most common is that it lives in creatures such as pike fish, puffer fish, lobster and salmon.
- Worm worms live in tantric salmon, whitefish, grayling and other fish, and they cause nanofibrillation in humans.
- Tape worms that cause insect diseases. Carp (bre, silver sea bream, roach, Lukeli) is susceptible to this disease. It is important to note that if all the worms are removed from the fish, the meat can be eaten-it is absolutely safe.
- Fluke flukes. Excitatory beetles. They live in rude places.
We emphasize that if any fish is cooked correctly, it is absolutely safe for humans. After high-quality and thorough heat treatment, both adults and children can eat fish absolutely safely. Another way to disinfect fish is to freeze it for a long time.
A product, even if it is not better than fish, is as popular as it is-of course, it is meat. It is not only popular among people, but also among worms.
The following types of worms live in meat:
- Nematodes. May be found in pork or chicken. Cause keratoses;
- Bull tapeworm. Found in undercooked beef. Excitatory flagellin;
- Pork tapeworm. Can live in cooked pork. Aggressive tenosynovitis;
- Toxoplasma nematode. Caught in chicken livers. Stimulate toxoplasmosis;
- Nematode. They live in uncooked pork. Cause trichinosis.
Human Parasites: Symptoms
The 14 main symptoms of worms in the human body:
- Chronic fatigue. Include many signs, such as: poor memory; indifference; stress; low-level flu-like symptoms. Due to the difficulty in the absorption of vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates, as well as protein and fat, nutritional deficiencies and ideal nutrition can cause these problems. Therefore, the permanent poisoning of parasites to the human body is greatly enhanced.
- Muscle and joint pain syndrome. Worms have the ability to migrate. Their resettlement is accompanied by pain, which is usually considered a painful consequence of arthritis. In addition, the abnormal inflammatory process in the joints may be the result of the human body's protective response to the presence of worms in it, as well as the result of damage to the tissues caused by the worms.
- Weight problems. Worms can cause weight gain and weight loss. The two-way difference will be very significant. Low weight is caused by loss of appetite, abdominal pain and indigestion. Obesity is the result of worm invasion. In the case of an acceptable amount of "empty calories" and due to toxic effects on metabolism, hunger can cause nutritional deficiencies.
- Irritable gastrointestinal syndrome. Endoparasites can cause inflammation of the intestinal membrane, leading to a large number of adverse reactions and decreased nutrient absorption. Instead of being absorbed by the small intestine, fat enters the large intestine, which can cause cramps, diarrhea, and constipation. Excess fat can be found in a stool test.
- Diarrhea. A bunch of substances in the form of worms are similar to prostaglandins. It is they who provoke frequent watery stools. It is important to understand that diarrhea can not only act as a reaction in the body, but also as a sign of worms.
- Constipation. Certain worms hinder the work of certain organs. For example, they can block the bile ducts (causing jaundice and liver problems) or the intestines (causing constipation).
- Irritability, permanent bad mood. Residues of toxic substances and important life activities of worms have a negative impact on the central nervous system. The result: depression, anxiety and constant excitement. Practice has proved that in many cases, eliminating parasites can cause a major change in a person’s personality and make him more calm.
- The inflammatory process of the respiratory tract. Various parasites will "traverse" the entire human body, including the respiratory system. Symptoms of airway worms include a runny nose, cough, sputum production, and fever. In practice, there are even sinusitis caused by awakening nasal worms. Pneumonia is also one of the manifestations of strongyloidiasis and assiosis.
- Flatulence. Caused by the inflammatory process of the small intestine. If the worms are not removed in time, different degrees of abdominal distension and gas formation will occur within months or even years.
- Sleep problems, teeth grinding during sleep. The origin of bruxism is still a mystery. One of them is the body's response to poisoning and the stimulation of the nervous system by parasites.
- Allergic reaction. Worms happen to enter the intestinal wall, which is why unprocessed food with large molecules ends up in the bloodstream. The body responds to this by increasing the production of blood cells (eosinophils), which in turn induce allergies. Worms themselves are also allergens.
- Tumor diseases. Worms in the body can cause systemic poisoning, nutritional deficiencies and immune system problems. They can also trigger a prolonged inflammatory process. Well, as a result of all this, a tumor tumor is formed.
- Serious skin problems. Worms can cause hives, rashes, eczema, ils sores, acne, papilloma and other skin diseases.
- The security system has crashed. Worms can severely weaken the defense system, reduce the production of protective immunoglobulins and cause allergies. Due to their activities, conditions are created for various infections, and the intestine becomes a home for malnutrition. Chronic colds and allergies are possible consequences of worms entering the body.
These are not all signs-there are many other signs, but they are very different and will appear depending on the type of individual, the duration of the infection, and the stage of organ damage. Symptoms can be very serious (for example, migraine, heart attack, asthma, and urinary tract inflammation).
Human Parasites: Diagnosis
The human body can hold up to dozens of worms at the same time. Therefore, treatment should start with diagnosing the disease. Modern medicine uses a variety of methods to diagnose the presence of various worms in organisms.
The most common is to analyze stool. However, there are other methods, such as:
- Immunology-blood tests are used to determine the number of antigens and antibodies against the parasite.
- Common procedures for histology-a detailed examination of the body of worms, larvae and eggs through a high-precision microscope. Let you find the most effective treatment drugs.
- Blood scan. Test 2, 000 times by adding a drop of blood. This method allows the detection of the presence of fungi, bacteria and other parasites.
- Electric needles. This method is implemented using special equipment. It is little known and completely unpopular because it can seriously harm the human body. However, it allows you to identify worms in your body and choose the most effective treatment.
Human parasites: medical treatment
You can use two sets of drugs to eliminate parasites:
Chemotherapy drugs obtained by synthetic methods;Let’s take a look at the most popular:
- Levamisole is extremely effective against pinworms and roundworms. The effectiveness of levamisole is attributed to the violation of worm bioenergy.
- Mebendazole-Eliminates trichinella, worms, hookworms, whipworms and worms, as well as individual larvae. The mechanism of action is to change the synthesis at the microscopic level and slow down the formation of ATP.
- Albendazole-has a complex effect. It disrupts the activity of the worm's cellular digestive system, prevents the movement of organelles in the organelles, and prevents the utilization of glucose. Eliminate pinworms, roundworms, strong creatures, trichinella, whipworms, hookworms. It can also fight the larval form of pork tapeworm and Echinococcus oc.
- Diethylcarbamazine-Used in the event of systemic invasion, and expressed in the form of round filamentous worms living in the human lymphatic system. The active ingredient of Diethylcarbamazine can cause the parasite's neuromuscular system to function abnormally, leading to its death.
- Niclosamide-used to treat tapeworm infections that live in the digestive system. The mechanism of action is to cause paralysis of helminths and reduce its resistance to gastrointestinal enzymes.
- Praziquantel is used for patients infected with flukes and schistosomiasis. The active ingredient of the drug helps the worm's systemic muscle contraction, which in turn leads to paralysis and parasite death.
- Ivermectin is a broad-spectrum drug. It is prescribed for the treatment of diseases such as strongyloidiasis, filariasis, and the elimination of sores. Among its ingredients are substances that have a negative effect on parasites, paralyze the body and cause death.
Human parasites: folk remedies
In addition to drugs, you can also try other methods. The main advantage of this treatment is that it is completely harmless.
Consider the most popular folk worm handling method:
- Healing tea. It is used to clean the intestines, liver and other organs. To prepare it, you need to mix equal parts of oak bark, wormwood and tansy. After that, take 5 grams of the mixture, pour 500 milliliters of boiling water, and cook for 12 hours. After that, the drink is ready. 100ml should be consumed in the morning (50ml for children). The course of treatment is 21 days. Tea not only helps to eliminate worms, but also improves the condition of the organs.
- Pumpkin seeds. Take 300 grams of peeled seeds and separate the kernels and husks with a transparent film. The seeds must be eaten with this layer. You need to consume them on an empty stomach, with a dosage of 10-20 grams. You need to repeat the reception every other day. The course of treatment lasts for a week.
- The test for helminthiasis is negative, but a person will feel weak, have dark circles under the eyes, and have skin problems. These must be signs of worms in the liver, lymph or blood. In this case, the appearance of the treatment will be slightly different. Mix 10 ml each of aloe oil and juice, and then add half a lemon to it. During the first 3 months, olive oil is added and then replaced with corn oil. In the third stage of treatment, you should switch to grape seed extract. The course of treatment is quite long-9 months. The mixture should be drunk in the morning. Although the therapy is long-term, it is quite effective and affordable in terms of cost.
- Pomegranate peel. However, since overdose can cause poisoning, you must be extra careful. The bark is used as a decoction. The preparation is as follows. You need to pour 250 grams of boiling water into 10 grams of dried bark and boil it for 10 minutes. The product should be taken 3 times a day, 3 ml each time before meals. Oak bark not only effectively eliminates parasites, but also cleanses the liver.
- Cantharellus. These mushrooms are also very effective against worms. They are used in the form of infusion. To prepare it, you need to pour 100 grams of chopped fresh mushrooms into 250 ml of alcohol, and then keep it in the refrigerator for 21 days. We recommend that you shake the mixture from time to time. After preparing the product, you need to use 5 ml every day before going to bed. The course of treatment is one month. We emphasize that there is no need to filter the product after preparation. This tool not only helps to eliminate worms, but also enhances immunity.
