What parasites can live in the human body and how to fight them correctly?

Before starting treatment from parasites, it is important to determine exactly which species is present in the body.This is necessary in order to choose effective methods of treatment, since most medicines are designed specifically to get rid of a specific type of helminths.The main diagnostic methods to determine the pathogen of invasion:

• analysis of feces;
• Blood test: general, as well as immunosorbent;
• smear;
• Analysis of the secrets of the 12-sex intestine;
• tomography;
• Ultrasound.

Parasites can be detected using a blood test.With a single negative result, most of the tests must be re -performed.This is necessary to obtain a reliable result.If the results of the tests confirmed the presence of helminthic invasion, it is important to immediately begin therapy against worms.It provides for 3 consecutive stages:

1. The preparation of the body is the use of sorbents, pumpkin oil, which activate the process of excretion of accumulated toxins.It lasts 5-7 days.
2. The use of anthelmintic drugs can be drops or suspensions designed to destroy a particular type of parasites:
3. Nematodes will help wide drugs;
4. The recovery stage - helps restore the normal functioning of the body, the functioning of the immune system.It provides for the use of sorbents, vitamin complexes, in some cases other medications are prescribed.

Helminthiasis treatment should be carried out under the supervision of a doctor.When we are talking about infection with tape worms and saucers, therapy in the hospital is shown.Pharmacological medications are very toxic.After their use, there are strong side effects, their intake is strictly prohibited by pregnant women.In this regard, many prefer to get rid of worms with the help of traditional medicine.Her arsenal has many recipes, the effectiveness of which has been tested for centuries.A large number of herbs and plants have a pronounced effect against worms: pumpkin, tansy, wormwood, immortelle, flax, onions, garlic, nuts, grenades, carrots.On their basis, decoctions, infusions are prepared.They are intended to receive orally or cleansing enemas.The latter are assigned to combat helminths parasitic in the intestine.When choosing a treatment method, pay attention to that the prescription does not contain plant components that you are allergic to.To minimize the risk of infection with helminths, it is important to constantly observe preventive measures:

• wash your hands before meals, and even after visiting the restroom, contact with animals;
• Wash fruit, vegetables, greens thoroughly and pour boiling water carefully;
• subject to sufficient heat treatment meat, fish;
• Carry out deworming pets.

To prevent parasites, always thoroughly wash your arms. At the first symptoms of helminthiasis, even if it seems that you could not become infected with worms anywhere, you should go to the doctor.He will prescribe diagnostics, if necessary, selects a tool for therapy against worms.

Are worms the simplest

Sometimes you can hear the phrase that the patient is infected with the simplest worms.You need to understand that the simplest are exclusively unicellular microorganisms, in extreme cases, those that organize the colonies.But they are never a lot of cellular, like worms and helminths.For protozoa, all processes occur within the cellular cytoplasm and cell nuclei, while worms are much more complicated: they have differentiated organs that perform special physiological functions.Therefore, it is wrong to reckon the worms to the simplest in the root.Sometimes helminths are called the simplest parasites in comparison with insects: bugs, lice, etc., since the latter are much higher along the evolutionary ladder.In such an interpretation, the name of worms is allowed.

The most common parasites

The most common in endoparasites include, of course, helminths (worms), which, according to various sources, are infected with more than 80% of the population of the planet.A huge number of these parasites are divided into main types:

• Nematodes - round worms (ascarides, pinworms, trichinelles, Vlasov, etc.);
• cestodes - ribbon worms (ribbons, pork and bull tapeworm, tapeworm, etc.);
• Trematodes-carpet workers (liver, blood, pulmonary, as well as saucers living in the intestines).

Sometimes you can find a more general classification, according to which all types of parasites of people are divided into:

• intestinal, parasitic in the intestines;
• tissue, localized in other organs and tissues.

Consider a brief description of the most common types of helminths.

Round worms (nematodes)

•  Askarides - the most common round worms with a length of 20 to 40 cm, are parasitized in the small intestine, but pre -migrated in the human body, affecting the blood and respiratory system.Along with the intestines, these parasites can be found in the liver and gall bladder, heart and lungs.A frequent symptom of ascariasis is an allergic reaction.
•  Tips - small worms up to 1 cm, affecting the intestines and leading to In Enterobiasis with a disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, exhaustion, sleep disturbances, etc. A characteristic sign of the presence of pinworms is itching in the anus, where they lay eggs.
•  Trichinella - these microscopic worms (their size is only a few millimeters) lead to severe diseases - trichinellosis, which can lead to death in the absence of treatment.Adult species live in the body of people in the muscles (breathing, facial, etc.), causing muscle pain, fever, edema, allergic rashes on the skin.
•  Vlasovs - small worms (length up to 4.5 cm, with the front of the body in the form of threads), the larvae of which cause trihozefalez with diarrhea, acute abdominal pain and other symptoms resembling appendicitis.Due to intoxication of the body, anemia develops.

Ribbon worms (cestodes)

•  A wide tape, whose body length reaches 10 m, leads to the development of dipillobotriosis with nausea, weakness, vomiting, unstable stools, asthenia and anemia.
•  The pork tapeen has a length of 3 to 8 m, parasitizes mainly in the small intestine and causes two diseases at once: Taeniasis with Dyspeptic, astheno-neurotic and abdominal syndromes, and cystymicosis with Ebrietas, intestinal, allergic and respiratory syndromes.Depending on the localization of TsistitSerki, muscles, brain, heart, eyes, etc. are affected.
•  Bull chain, the length of which can reach up to 18 m, causes tusiarinchosis and is considered one of the most dangerous types of worms.If you do not do Deworming, it can live in the human body under 18-20 years old!It is localized in the large intestine, causes severe intoxication with products of its vital activity, as well as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, anemia, allergic reactions and problems with the nervous system.
•  A dwarf tancern is only 1.5-5 cm long-a source of hymenolepidosis with Dyspeptic, pain and astheno-neurotic syndromes, from which the digestive and nervous systems of the body, as well as the liver, suffer.
•  Echinococcus is considered the smallest ribbon flax - its length is only from 2.5 to 8, rarely 9 mm, however, infection with it has formidable consequences in the form of liver and lung damage, where cysts and tumors are formed that cause dysfunction of these organs.

Dosal workers (trematodes)

•  The liver sunser, or the hepatic double-watering in shape resembles a sheet of 30-50 mm long and 8-13 mm wide, has suction cups.It damages the liver membrane and, clogging the bile ducts, is able to completely block the outflow of bile.It can lead to cirrhosis, jaundice and liver cancer.
•  Foam (Siberian) saucers, or a cat bickelter, a flat slob 4-13 mm long.Localization - ducts of the gallbladder, liver and pancreas.It causes opisthorchiasis with the development of gastritis, ulcers, pancreatitis, cholecystitis up to liver cancer, which can lead to death.
•  The pulmonary loss has an egg-shaped shape, a red-brown body with small spikes with a length of 7.5 to 12 mm with a width of 4-8 mm.It affects the lungs, causing inflammation, exudative pleurisy, focal fibrosis and lung cancer.With penetration into the brain, encephalitis and meningoencephalitis causes.
•  Schistosomes (blood saucers) are separate worms with a size of 1-2 cm, whose eggs cause an increase in the liver, spleen and lymph nodes, the formation of polyps in the intestines, diarrhea, granulomatous inflammation, leading to cancer of the bladder.

The simplest parasites

Toxoplasma (Toxoplazma gondii) - the type of parasites, the main owner is cats.They can also be transferred to warm -blooded animals and humans.The disease caused by Per Toxoplasma is called toxoplasmosis.The course of the disease is mild, with the exception of the damage to the fetus inside the maternal womb, which creates serious consequences for both the mother and the fetus, even deadly.

Amoeba is a simple unicellular organism that is considered one of the first creatures living on Earth.The disease caused by amoea is called amoebiasis.The intestinal infection, with the prevailing ulcerative damage to the large intestine with the appearance of bloody diarrhea, the possible formation of secondary intestinal foci, which has a tendency to chronic course.Malarial plasmodium is the simplest one cell creature, in the development cycle of which a person is a temporary host, and a mosquito is constant.In the human body, parasitic plasmodia is represented by 4 species:

• P.Malarie - four -day malaria;
• P.Vivax - three -day malaria;
• P.Ovale - three -day ovale malaria;
• P.Falciparum - tropical malaria;

The duration of the interval between the bursts depends on the type of pathogen.In addition to all this, anemia develops, since plasmodium affects the blood cells of red blood cells. The disease can occur both in mild and in severe form.

Paths of penetration into the body:

• water - through dirty water;
• contact - household - when using objects, clothes, dishes;
• Alimentary - through dirty vegetables, fruits, products that have not passed heat treatment.

Sometimes it happens that the carrier of parasites does not get sick, but is only a carrier and emits the pathogen into the external environment.For the development of the disease, there are only a few cysts of lamblia into the human body.Leishmania - representatives of this genus are the cause of Leishmaniosis.Mosquitoes are carriers.The main contingent of the defeat is people, rodents, mammals.For the full development of the pathogenic organism, the presence of two owners is required.This is a mosquito and a representative of the vertebrates.Human diseases caused by invasion of Leishmania:

• Visceral Leishmaniosis (fever of thought-dum)-there is a defeat of internal organs;
• Leishmaniosis of the skin (Baghdad ulcer) - lesion of the skin, most often the head, followed by the formation of scars;
• Leishmaniosis of the skin and mucous membranes - is manifested by severe destructive damage to the skin and mucous membranes
• Prevention consists in the sanitation of foci of reproduction of mosquitoes, the destruction of rodents, control over the number of dogs, the burial of the corpses of dead animals.

Trichomonades - flagelled unicellular organisms of pear -shaped form, cause a disease of trichomonosis, transmitted sexually and affect the genitourinary system.It is notable that men and women are sick, but in men the disease usually occurs asymptomatic.Tripanosomes - a genus of unicellular protozoa flagella.A serious disease of tripanosomosis is caused, sleepy disease is deadly for humans.The carrier of Tripanos is bugs, a fly of Tseche.In the host’s body, the parasite propagates under the skin, then penetrates into the lymph system and blood.Most pathogens are in the spinal cord, where cells destroy and release their toxins.

Flat helminths

Plates-parasites, or saucers (trematodes), have a characteristic leaf-shaped shape of the body.Their structure is quite organized - they have a digestive, excretory and nervous system.During the life cycle, they change their owners.The distribution has received the following types:

1.  Siberian bicarry (cat bickery), or opistorchis.Most often, infection occurs through raw fish, which leads to the appearance of a rather dangerous disease - opisthorchiasis.The propagation of parasites occurs very quickly, which can cause severe consequences.Worms have a yellowish tint, and their length can exceed 12 m. Closered in the human body, these parasites provoke internal bleeding, disrupt the gall outflow, cause dysfunction of the pancreas.Dangerous consequences: purulent cholagites, ahilia, cholangocarcinoma.
2.  Hepatic bacon.The intermediate host is representatives of cattle, and a person is infected by eating poorly treated meat of affected animals.As a result of infection, Fasioleosis develops.In size, these worms are relatively small (not more than 5-6 cm), but they are able to provoke dangerous pathologies: liver abscesses, cholangitis, hepatitis.Through blood, the parasite larvae can spread throughout the body.
3.  Schistosoma.The worm is able to sit in the blood vessels, consuming blood components.As a result of its life, the development of varicose veins, tumor formations is possible.The main symptom is intensive general intoxication.

Bull Taper

The bull tapeworm can reach a length of up to 12 m. This is hermaphrodite, which can produce more than 100,000 eggs, they are withdrawn with excrement.Eggs fall into the soil, then on plants, these plants eat cattle.In the body of the animal, eggs become larvae that are localized in the muscles.If a person eats infected beef, larvae fall into the intestines.Larvae are not transmitted from person to person.

Adult worms have a head with four suction cups, a neck and a body consisting of segments.The number of segments is constantly growing, mature segments can be separated from the worm and crawl out of the intestines of the person.

Bull Taper: Symptoms

Symptoms of the disease are nausea, vomiting, dyspeptic disorders, increased salivation, dizziness, weakness, nervousness, fatigue, abdominal pain, allergies, appetite fluctuations.

In order to remove the bull tapeworm from the body, there is a scheme consisting of 3 stages: preparatory (cleansing the body), treatment with antiparasitic drugs, recovery (diet, herbal medicine).

Ribbon helminths

The helminths of the tape type, or cestodes, include a variety of flat worms, the length of which can be from 2 mm to 10-12 m. The body of such parasites has a specific structure-numerous segments, neck and head with suction cups (hooks) for fixing on the walls.Tsestoda is hermaphrodite, and the eggs are located in segments.The worm is absorbed through the entire surface of the body.

Ribbon worms

The following common types of tape worms are distinguished:

1.  Alveokokk.Its vital activity determines the occurrence of an extremely dangerous disease - alveococcosis.Individuals can have a length of more than 4 m. A feature of these worms is the formation at the place of fixing the dense nodes of a whitish shade with a diameter of more than 2 cm, which resemble a malignant tumor.The most characteristic localization is lungs, kidneys and liver.They are able to provoke cholangitis and abscess, as well as spread to the spleen, muscles and brain.
2.  Tapes, or soliders.Such varieties as bull and pork tapeen, wide tape, are widely used.They differ in huge sizes - more than 10 m, and a long life expectancy - more than 20 years.Bull chain excites the disease of a shadowaline and is located, as a rule, in the small intestine.Serious complications are cholecystitis, intestinal obstruction, appendicitis.The pork chain is slightly smaller than its “brothers” (length 2-3 m).It causes tusias.A wide tape is manifested by such a pathology as dipillobotriosis.Infection to them occurs through poorly cooked fish.This worm is able to lead to the following consequences: intestinal atrophy, Gunter Glossia, Leukopenia.

Diseases that they cause

The most dangerous parasites living in the human body can provoke a variety of diseases.Very often, the ailment provoked by a specific parasite has the same name as it.So, various types of parasites in the human body can cause the following diseases:

• Certain parasites within a person (saucers) provoke trematodoses;
• cestodosis occurs when tape worms are damaged;
• If an adult or child in the intestines will have round worms, then nematodoses are diagnosed;
• leeches cause gyurudinosis;
• Adocephales provoke scraper.

However, more than one organ can affect parasites in the human body.

1. Eye damage;
2. Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, which cause unicellular parasites and helminths, - ascaridosis, trichinellosis, ankylostomosis, enterobiosis;
3. Brain diseases - echinococcosis, toxoplasmosis;
4. Dermatological diseases - demodecosis, pediculosis, scabies;
5. Lung pathologies - echinococcosis, ascaridosis, etc.;
6. Liver diseases - opisthorchiasis, echinococcosis;
7. In the mouth, in the area of the ears and oral cavity, parasites can cause different types of disease;
8. Pathologies of the heart;
9. Diseases of the genitourinary system;
10. Pathologies of blood vessels.

Drugs for the treatment of parasitosis

Currently, a large amount of drugs for the treatment of parasitosis has been developed.For the treatment of helminthias, use drugs of wide action and with a narrow spectrum of action.In addition to these drugs, it is recommended to take vitamins, drugs for the restoration of intestinal microflora.Microflora and fermented milk products of bacterial, but not fungal sourdough contribute to the restoration.To prevent strong allergic manifestations, antihistamines and glucocorticoids are used.To restore the digestion process, it is sometimes advisable to take digestive enzymes, choleretic drugs.In the treatment of helminthiasis, it should be borne in mind that modern drugs significantly reduce the ability of helminths to withstand the digestive enzymes of the body, so it is not always possible to detect the dead helminth in bowel movements.

Folk remedies

• Papaya: Papaya seeds are very useful for the treatment and withdrawal of intestinal worms.They have a karitsin, which is effective for killing roundworms.Add one teaspoon of seed powder to a glass of water or milk and drink on an empty stomach in the morning, daily.
• Garlic: very useful for home treatment of intestinal worms.Eat three cloves of garlic every morning to achieve the best results.
• Carrots: very useful for getting rid of ribbon helminths.It is enough to take a few spoons of grated carrots in the morning on an empty stomach.
• Pumpkin: Take approximately one pumpkin canteen, peel from transparent husk, chop and put in 250 ml of boiling water to make an infusion.And then drink it to expel the worms from the intestines
• Pomegranate: bark, root and grenade stems are very effective in destroying worms

The most effective grenade crust is.The cold decoction of the bark at a dose of 90 to 180 ml should be drunk three times a day, through the intervals in one hour.

• Turmeric: dry powder or turmeric juice mixed with butter, milk or water is very useful not only for deworming, but also for problems with the intestines, especially chronic diarrhea.
• Tincture of birch leaves on cognac.Fill the third part of the dishes with birch leaves, add cognac to the top and insist for three weeks.Then strain the tincture, mix in equal shares with beets, carrots and honey, mix.Take three times a day for 100 g of the resulting mixture, 30 minutes before meals.
• Tincture of black poplar.Take 40 drops of tincture 1 hour before meals 3 times a day for 20-30 days.
• Infusion of corn stigmas.Take 10 g of corn stigmas, pour 200 g of hot boiled water, insist.Drink 1-2 tablespoons 3-4 times a day.
• Flax seed powder and clove buds.This tool is convenient in that it can be poured into dishes.
• Pear juice with flesh of fresh fruits, carrot juice is recommended for the treatment of children.Drink 50 ml on an empty stomach hour before meals for a week, 10 days.
• Pumpkin seeds.You need to chew raw seeds on an empty stomach, along with a thin green skin (it is it that is distinguished by powerful antigelmic properties).A daily portion from 250 to 400 g of seeds, after which after a couple of hours it is required to drink a laxative tablet.The treatment period is from 3 to 5 days.
• Infusion of grinded fresh pomegranate crusts.The mass of the peel 1 fruit is poured with boiling water (250 ml), insisted in the thermos for 1.5 hours.Filter.Dosage - on an empty stomach to drink every 4 hours, before bedtime - laxative.
• For 300 ml of water, 3 tsp.crushed raw materials.Boil over low heat for 15 minutes, insist 2 hours, led.Norm per day: 30 ml 5 times.
• Infusion with and wormwood.3 tsp is taken for 500 ml of water.mixtures of powder dried inflorescences (or fresh mass).Boil for 5 minutes, insist until cooling.Filter.You should take no more than 50 ml at a time, in the morning, at lunch, in the evening on an empty stomach for 5 days.
• Homemade triple.The collection in dry powder from equal parts of wormwood, spices and tansy are consumed for 1 tsp.4 times on an empty stomach during the day, chewing thoroughly, washed down with clean water.
• Garlic.To cleanse the body of parasites, you need to eat on a hill every day in the morning and at night for a hill without salt and bread 2 to 4 teeth for a week.
• Ancient delinquency miracle recipe: to eat a salty herring and a large onion on the weekend.You can’t eat and drink anything more until the evening.Helminths will massively climb from the intestines with feces in the evening.

Parasites do not tolerate red pepper, sorrel, so it is necessary to include in the diet as often as possible.This is both treatment and prevention.In addition, in the process of treatment, it is necessary to exclude sweet, fatty foods from the daily menu.As well as oil, milk, butter products, canned food and smoked meats.It is important in this method of treatment to starve during the day and empty the intestines, taking compote of prunes.The next day, you need to drink three or four glasses of pumpkin seeds.

In the human body, a huge number of different parasite worms can be found that can be fixed in various internal organs.All of them cause chronic diseases that can provoke severe pathologies.If there are signs of helminthiasis of any type, you must consult a doctor to start adequate treatment.
