Unfortunately, it is possible to fall prey to pests anywhere by eating an uncooked steak in a cafe, sinking into an unknown pond or eating berries that have not been treated with water. The result of the presence of parasites will be deterioration of health, weakening of immunity and unhealthy appearance. The parasites poison the host with waste and gradually appear unpleasant changes in the internal organs of a person. How to deal with parasites in the human body? What medicine and methods are there to fight parasites in human organs? Let's take a closer look at pest control methods.
Signs of the presence of parasites in the body
A variety of parasites live in the human body. Some show their presence almost immediately after check-in. Others live without showing any signs. It is very easy to get infected with worms, but it is not easy to get rid of it. How to check for parasites? And although the parasites that live in the human body may be different, the symptoms of the parasitic infection are similar. Common symptoms of helminths in the body include the following:
- irrational headaches
- nausea, occasional vomiting
- weakness, apathy
- disorder of digestive processes.
- lack of appetite or constant desire for something to eat.
- bad breath.
- dark circles around the eyes.
- anemia;
- weight gain or loss for no reason.
- muscle and joint pain.
- allergy;
- nervous system disorders;
- dizziness.
Very often a person is treated for some kind of disease by swallowing handfuls of drugs and the cause of his discomfort is the parasites in the body. And after the removal of the helminths, the state of health immediately improves. Fighting pests is an important step in the health of the body.
Most of the time, the human body is sensitive to attacks by such parasitic individuals:
- roundworm?
- pinworms?
- lights;
- streptococci;
- staphylococci;
- opisthorchis.
The difficulty in detecting parasites is that the symptoms of the presence of helminths are similar to various diseases. More than a hundred parasites, ranging in size from a few millimeters to several meters, settle in the human body, poisoning, injuring organs, taking energy, nutrients and power.
Ways to diagnose the presence of parasites in the body
There is a view that parasites are not easy to detect. In fact, the usual way - a clinical fecal analysis can not always show the presence of parasitic individuals in the human body. Therefore, for locating parasitic individuals, there are such options:
- Microscopic examination of feces for an ovarian leaf is a non-traumatic and painless method that can be performed in any laboratory, for reliability the diagnosis is recommended several times.
- immunological blood test for the presence of parasites in the organs from the level of antigens, ELISA.
- Material diagnostics - ultrasound helps detect echinococcus in the human body.
- endoscopy and endobiopsy - taking a piece of tissue to determine the presence of parasitic organisms.
- PCR - diagnosis of blood for the presence of parasitic organisms in the human body.
Difficulties in dealing with parasitic individuals
The most difficult thing in the fight against parasites is the diagnosis. They are masterfully hidden in the body and it is not so easy to detect the presence of parasites. The life cycle of some people reaches two decades! What tremendous damage during this period can be caused by germs, worms or helminths! The manifestation of the presence of parasites of different species is different and it happens that it is not possible to detect parasites even in clinical studies.
Detecting parasites or their fragments in the stool is shocking, but you should not panic.
After all, thanks to this one can start fighting against foreign organisms that suppress the immune system and undermine health. Once the parasite has been released, you should not hesitate to take it to a laboratory for an infectious disease doctor. Indeed, depending on the type of helminth organism, rational therapy is prescribed. Antiparasitic treatment and concomitant medications are prescribed to maintain overall health.
Traditional medicine against parasites (treatment of worms and tapeworms)
According to the Ministry of Health, one in three adults and one in two children are infected with various parasites. Helminths are the most common parasitic species where humans are the hosts. Tapeworms and roundworms are the most common types of worms. Their second name is nematodes and cestodes. Most often, individuals live and reproduce in the intestines. There are many drugs, some of which are capable of destroying many types of helminths at the same time. In the fight against parasites in the human body, many methods and courses of treatment have been developed. Drugs are designed to suppress parasites by acting on their major organs and systems.
The drugs are suitable for such helminths:
- ascardia;
- teniarinhoses?
- tension
- enterobiasis
- trichinosis;
- echinococcosis
- other types of diseases.
"Vermox" is used very often, but it should be borne in mind that this drug is contraindicated in case of contraindications to the use of lactose, ulcers, colitis, Crohn's disease, liver failure and during childbirth. The drug is contraindicated in children under three years of age. The drug can have side effects: disorders of the digestive system, disorders of the nervous system and urogenital system. In some cases, there are allergic reactions, hair loss, changes in the indicators in clinical blood and urine tests. That is, the drug is quite toxic and can adversely affect the general state of health. Self-prescribing is not recommended. Only a doctor can prescribe the right medicine and dosage, taking into account existing diseases and health conditions.
Traditional medicine against pests (treatment of tremors)
Suckers are also frequent visitors and "hostels" of a person.
This group of pests are flatworms. They can live in many organs of the human body: pancreas, lungs, intestines, gallbladder, liver. Against such parasitic organisms, special drugs are used, which cause paralysis of the parasite's body and death.
Along with antiparasitic treatment, complex treatment with symptomatic drugs is performed. It is recommended to prescribe anti-allergic drugs, drugs to protect the liver, choleretic drugs, enzymes, absorbents, painkillers. In some cases, antibiotics are prescribed at the discretion of the doctor. As the presence of inflammation significantly weakens the immune system, a complex of vitamins and minerals is prescribed. And the final stage of treatment is the normalization of the intestinal microflora.
Traditional medicine against pests (control of protozoa, ecoparasites)
Parasitologists have enough information on how to resist the simplest. Amoebae, bulbs, cryptospores can settle in the human body and parasitize on it.
The main component of drugs affects the genetic code of protozoa and contributes to their destruction. The drugs are contraindicated for use in liver failure, epilepsy, during childbirth and breastfeeding.
The parasites are located and multiply in the circulatory system and internal organs, as well as in the skin. One such representative of the parasite is a mite that infects the smooth skin and hair follicles. The most common sites for parasites are the eyebrows, eyelashes, nose and the area around the mouth. This causes an unpleasant change in appearance. It is very difficult to recover from fungal infection. Various methods are used to destroy subcutaneous mites: preparations of the metronidazole group, medicated gels, necessary preparations, cosmetic facial cleansing, laser peeling. Lice are also representatives of this type of parasite. Lice affect the scalp and pubic area.
