Different types of parasites can be present in the human body for a long time, causing very specific damage to health.
A significant number of people suffer from serious diseases caused by parasites. At the same time, many have no idea about the presence of parasites in the intestines and other organs.
Each type of parasite known in the art has its own individual characteristics that an adult should be aware of.
Risk of infection
To date, science has known more than 200 species of parasites, for which the human body is a habitat.
The ways and means of penetration of the pests in the most favorable place of residence have been studied in detail. We can say that each type of parasite has its own "specialization".
Many of the helminths live in the gastrointestinal tract. There are also those that parasitize the liver, lungs and even the brain.
Almost everyone is subject to a parasitic attack. It is just as likely to be an adult or breastfeeding baby.
A major risk is the presence of parasites in children. First of all, this is reflected in the state of health. Babies often get sick for no apparent reason.
There is a delay in physical and mental development. It is not so easy to identify the cause of misery, although it is often "found" in simple vision.
It is enough to carry out some studies, to determine the type of parasite and to prescribe a course of treatment.
A large number of adults are at risk, as their professional activities are related to the processing of raw materials contaminated with helminths.
Some species of pests are extremely resistant to environmental influences and can be destroyed with great difficulty.
Varieties of pests
The appearance of parasites in the human body is always accompanied by certain signs.
The peculiarity of this condition is that the symptoms are often very weak and it is difficult to detect the presence of parasites without special studies.
The following types of helminths parasitize the body:
- round?
- movie?
- flashes.
This classification is based on external characteristics, and regardless of the species, parasites have many features in common.
Hooks and suction cups of various shapes are designed to make it easier for parasites to attach to a specific location.
The life cycle of many parasites consists of several stages. In addition, a genre like a movie has two "owners" - a man and a pet.
Closed loop relocation allows these parasites to exist and reproduce. During the process of movement, the parasite enters the human body and feeds on it.
This feature is inherent in all microorganisms that live in the gut or other organs. Only useful species are included in the creative activity and parasites are included in the destructive activity.
Given these circumstances, people need to support the beneficial and suppress parasites.
Roundworms
Roundworms includes roundworm. It is an orange parasite without a sucker.
The shape of its axis allows it to migrate through various organs and penetrate into smaller holes and folds. This type of parasite is capable of invading the lungs or pancreas.
Eggs produced by the worm are protected by a strong shell that can withstand the destructive effects of hydrochloric acid on the stomach. Most often, people become infected by eating unwashed vegetables and fruits.
Pinworm enters the human body in exactly the same way. In appearance, it is a thin stripe worm of light gray color, up to 10 mm long. Already at the larval stage, the parasite begins to harm humans.
Developing a sexually mature person, the larva secretes toxic enzymes that irritate the intestinal mucosa.
An adult worm is able to penetrate the deep layers of the small intestine and penetrate through it. In such conditions, a serious disease called peritonitis develops.
Another round parasite that parasitizes the large intestine is the worm.
The following symptoms occur when swallowing:
- headache and dizziness?
- persistent abdominal pain?
- sleep disorder.
The body never leaves the boundaries - the worm can only be destroyed, after which the parasite comes out with the feces.
Tape worms
The appearance of parasites in humans follows similar scenarios. Pork and beef in the form of strips enter the body when they eat meat, respectively, pork and beef contaminated by the Finns.
In appearance, these Finns, or larvae, are white bubbles and look like millet groats.
When they reach the intestines, the larvae establish themselves and begin to grow into a complete parasite. The development is asymptomatic in most cases.
After about three months, the movie can already be played. This type of parasite reaches a length of ten meters or more.
The presence of film on the body causes a serious disease of the tenorion. A more serious threat to human health is the Echinococcus parasite.
For this parasite, the human body is an intermediate refuge. The main owners are animals - dogs and cats. Humans become infected through contact with their favorite animals through the food route - through the mouth.
Once they reach the intestine, the eggs begin to develop into larvae, which have six hooks for attachment.
As they circulate in the bloodstream, they are transported to different organs and usually attach to the liver and lungs.
Growing up, echinococcus begins to destroy surrounding tissues. Sometimes quite large parasites are considered a tumor.
The cell is another representative of the film parasite in the human body. After penetrating the intestine, the larvae develop intensively and penetrate the walls of the small intestine and are transported by the bloodstream through various organs and systems.
Like echinococcus, the parasite attaches to the liver and begins its destructive action.
The cell is in the form of a multi-chamber cyst called a larva. These larvae are able to invade liver tissue and become cancerous metastases.
The blood supply to the liver tissue is interrupted, necrosis begins, which poses a serious risk to health and even human life.
Fluke Worms
The movie list contains a separate type of pest called flukes.
The following species are among the most dangerous fluke:
- fluke cat;
- fasciola;
- schistosome.
Liver pathologies are more common in human diseases than other organ diseases. The flukes got their name because of their anatomical structure.
There are many suction cups in the body of the parasite, with the help of which the parasite is held in a specific place and penetrates deep into living tissues.
Cat fluke is more common in the gallbladder and pancreatic ducts.Fluke enters the human body along with fish that has not been adequately salted or boiled.
In people suffering from this parasite, the temperature rises sharply, an irrational cough occurs and rashes appear on the body. If you do not take emergency measures, then the person may die.
Fasciola enters the body by drinking unboiled water. Depending on the patient, it causes chronic jaundice.Schistosomiasis, which is caused by a rare parasite, has become more common in recent years.
This fact is explained by the fact that a large number of people began to visit tropical countries where this parasite is widespread.
Precautions
Medical practice shows that parasites take root in the gut much more often than in other organs.
Parasites of various types can be adapted to be present in the liver, lungs, heart, brain, and even eyes - this entry alone provides an adequate idea of the risk that parasites pose to human health andfull life.
Different types of parasites can enter the body both individually and in combination, which increases the severity of the damage.
In order to avoid all kinds of parasites in your body, it is enough to follow the basic rules of hygiene and hygiene for food.
Young children need to be monitored constantly, especially in the summer when they go on land or at sea.
You do not need to eat raw meat or fish today, including sliced meat. This atavism must be left in the past forever, so that your body is not exposed to undue danger.
