Creatures living in the body of animals, humans, birds and fish and eat at the expense of their carrier are called parasites.The life of such organisms in the human body does not lead to anything good, parasites can cause serious complications and even a fatal outcome.Consider more detailed types of parasites in the human body.Below is a detailed classification of parasites.
varieties
Good
These include Giardia, Dysentery Amoeba, Trypanosoma, etc.
Worms
- Round worms - round worms and pinworms take root well in the human body
- Flat worms - the human body is a great place where a pork and bull site, fluke Iecoris, etc. can live.
Insect
- Lice and fleas
- Ticks and botflies
It is quite difficult to fight such types of parasites, because in the process of their lives they are reliably justified and attached to the walls of the organs using special suction cups and hooks.
Some individuals can live in cells and tissues, and it is almost impossible to remove them from there.This applies to worms.The insect situation is a little simpler, as they are usually located on the surface of the body, where they can be detected and destroyed in time.
Which parasites live in the gut?So we will analyze each of their variety and the places where parasitic worms and protozoa live.
Good
Absolutely invisible parasites.Among the protozoa there are harmless representatives - Evglen green, shoe cilizer, etc.
The most dangerous for people are:
- Malarial plasmodium.
The carrier of this type of parasites is a mosquito living in South America and Central Africa, where a warm and humid climate.Such conditions are conducive to the life of plasmodium.Clinical symptoms already appear one day after microorganism begins to live in a person, or more precisely, in his liver.Signs of malaria parasites of infection include: severe headaches, nausea and vomiting.After a few days, an infected person rises sharply, diarrhea begins and rapid dehydration of the body begins.
Treatment should begin immediately when the first symptoms appear.For this, the patient is placed in a hospital where the necessary laboratory studies are performed, an anamnesis is collected and adequate therapy is determined. - Lambia and AMOEBA dysentery.
These types of parasitic protozoa live in the gastrointestinal tract.Even a person and every animal can become carriers.Favorite places where parasites can live their entire cycle of life is the small intestine and the upper part of the large intestine.
Sources of this type of parasites in the body are dirty fruits and vegetables, raw water.The first symptoms appear quite quickly. The main sign of Giardia infection or an amoea dysentery is a spacious liquid chair.Then the temperature rises, begins to vomiting.If you do not take timely, there is a risk of death from a strong dehydration of the body.
Flat worms
This type of parasites in the human body is also very dangerous.These worms are called flat because the shape of their body resembles flat ribbons.There is also the most harmless type of flat worms for humans - these are ciliated worms.But for dangerous parasites - the flows and worms of the ribbon - let's talk in more detail.
- Influx
In size, the flat worms of this species are small, but are glued to the walls of the human organs very tightly thanks to their suction cups.Flows, parasitic mainly in the liver and intestine, causes anemia, persistent headaches and sharp weight loss.This vermes can penetrate the lungs and even the brain during its lifetime, causing serious consequences.The source of the flow is contaminated water and plants. - Ribbon worms
This type of worm has a very large length, and constantly grows in its entirety.Throughout her life, the bar worm can grow to 6.5 meters. Ribbon worm representatives - the bull and pig chain - can reach a length of up to 10 meters.Parasites live in a person's intestines, namely a thin.The most dangerous type of stripe worms is echinococcus, which can affect the brain and lungs.Losing weight with normal appetite is the main sign of tape -worm infection.
Round worms
These species are mainly in children - kindergartens and elementary school students.
The most popular are round worms, these are the pinw and ascarides worms, and both have the ability to parasitize the intestines.
These types of parasitic worms are not glued to the walls of the human organs, as round worms have no equipment for this, however it is not easy to extract them.Pin worms tend to lay eggs in the anus folds, causing unbearable itching of the perianal region.Children infect themselves "in a circle" - comb the itching site, pinworms worm larvae remain in the hands and under the nails, and when the child accidentally puts fingers in the mouth, the infection occurs again.
Currently, according to the World Health Organization statistics, just over half of the population around the world are infected with a variety of parasites.It is often the case that some types of bowel parasites can be placed and functioning in the human body absolutely asymptomatic for many years, without betraying themselves, but at the same time eat a person's fluid and vibrancy, causing irreparable damage to it.
And if the symptoms appear from time to time, then people in the rhythm of modern life simply do not notice them or do not pay much attention to them.And very in vain.There are many frightening and irreparable consequences.
Experts recommend at least once a year to take tests for parasites - feces, blood.After all, it is timely discovery of parasites in humans and competent treatment that will ensure further quality of life.
Happy what happens to a person in whose body the parasites live for a long time?
- Forces have been impoverished as the spread and growth of parasites.
- Immunity is greatly reduced, as the body throws all its strengths to fight pests.
- Anydo, even the simplest virus or infection can affect a person, as the body is unable to protect against viruses.
- During their lives, parasitic individuals release toxins, which gradually accumulate in the human body.It is gradually poisoned, which is fraught with various infectious and even malignant diseases.
PREVENTION
Prevention is an integral part in the fight against parasites.It was said above what the parasites are in the human body.As for worms and protozoa, modern medicine offers a large selection of drugs for prevention and war pests.
But do not prescribe the medicine yourself, you should first contact a specialist, especially if you worry about any symptoms.After performing the necessary tests, the doctor himself will prescribe the desired medicine based on which the parasites live in the human body.
After all, every drug acts in some types of parasitism.Unfortunately, unfortunately, there are no universal.And it is precisely the specialist who will help to choose the medicine that is important in this case, which will fight a certain type of parasites in one person.
Once you have passed the whole course of one of the medicines, you can get rid of pests forever.To prepare the body for medication treatment, enterosorbents are often prescribed.
Some of the medicines have serious side effects, it is also necessary to know.
