More than half of the world 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 the pathogenic complications that occur in the human body. In most cases, it is possible to get rid of parasites with folk remedies at home, for that you need to know the types, signs and characteristics of the treatment of each pathogen.
Causes of the occurrence
Parasites in the host's body appear by contact with the external environment. All disease penetration pathways are divided into 4 main types:
- Food contamination (with dirty water or food, dirty hands).
- Contact and home penetration (through pets and other infected people).
- Transmissive injection (due to insect bites).
- Purcut or active infection (penetration of the parasite's larva through the skin and mucous membranes in contact with dirty soil or water).
This disease can also be infected through unprotected sex, so that the Trichomonas penetrate the human body.
Types of parasites
All bacteria that live by attaching themselves to the human body can be divided into three major groups:
- Protozoa. This group has many varieties, most of the time you can find infection by lamblia, trochanons and toxoplasma. They can appear in various parts of the body.
- Worms (helminths). These include pinworms, roundworms, pork and bovine tapeworms, echinococci and other species. These parasites develop in the patient's intestines.
- Ectoparasites like ticks or lice, fleas. Parasites the human skin (open or hairy epidermis).
Ectoparasites are the safest, unlike other species. Protozoa and worms can develop in an infected person's body for months, impairing the functioning of internal organs, but without giving any special signs of their occurrence. Symptoms with worms are often attributed to general malaise or diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas. To prevent the development of the disease, it is necessary to know the symptoms and signs of appearance of parasitic "guests" in the body.
Symptoms and signs
The symptoms of different types of pathogenic microorganisms in the body can be different. On average, the following clinical picture can be distinguished:
- frontal headache 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 on their host, so the human body is working to wear itself out. As the condition develops, the symptoms worsen, so treatment should be started when the first signs are detected.
