More than half of the world's population suffers from parasites. This is due to the fact that in some situations the infection is asymptomatic, but this does not relieve the carrier of pathogenic complications that occur in the human body. In most cases, you can get rid of parasites with folk remedies at home. For this you need to know the types, signs and features of treatment of each pathogen.
Causes of occurrence
Parasites in the host's body appear on contact with the external environment. All routes of entry of the disease are divided into 4 main types:
- Food contamination (with water or dirty food, unwashed hands).
- Contact and domestic penetration (through pets and other infected people).
- Transmissive injection (due to insect bites).
- Purcut or active infection (penetration of the larva of the parasite through the skin and mucous membranes in contact with dirty soil or water).
Such a disease can also get infected through unprotected sex, in this way the Trichomonas get into the human body.
Types of parasites
All bacteria that live by attaching to the human body can be divided into three large groups:
- Protozoa. This group has many varieties, most often you can meet infection with lamblia, trochimonades and toxoplasma. They can appear in various parts of the body.
- Worms (helminths). These include pinworms, roundworms, pork and cattle tapeworms, echinococci and other species. Such parasites develop in the patient's intestines.
- Ectoparasites such as ticks or lice, fleas. Parasites human skin (hairy or open epidermis).
Ectoparasites are the safest, unlike other species. Protozoa and worms can develop in the body of an infected person for months, interfering with the work of internal organs, but without giving special signs of their appearance. Symptoms with worms are often attributed to general malaise or diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas. In order to prevent the development of the disease, it is necessary to know the symptoms and signs of the appearance of parasitic "guests" in the body.
Symptoms and signs
Symptoms of different types of pathogenic microorganisms in the body may differ. On average, the following clinical picture can be distinguished:
- frontal headaches and irritability;
- weakness, fatigue;
- loss of appetite and nausea, as a result - weight loss;
- intestinal dysfunction, pain; rash
- ;
- increase in body temperature;
- anemia (whitening of the skin and mucous membranes of the body).
Microorganisms live off their host, so the human body works with wear and tear. As the pathology develops, the symptoms worsen, so treatment should be started as soon as the first signs are detected.
