Types of parasites in the human body

The types of parasites in the human body are extremely diverse.Along with many-cell and protozoa, also includes viruses, bacteria and fungi that parasitize due to the human body, although in the medical tradition of viruses and bacteria it is not customary to attribute to parasites.

In the human body, different types of parasites are localized not only in the intestines, as is commonly believed, but also in blood, muscles, in joints, in joints, in joints, in joints, in joints, in jointsthe brain (head and spin) and even in the eyes.

Interior organs such as gastrointestinal tract, liver, lungs, heart are especially exposed to their effects.

Assistance of parasites in the human body is far from harmless.Their harmful effects consists, first of all, that they absorb a considerable part of the useful substances coming from food, without which the full functioning of the body is impossible.

The imbalance is also aggravated by the general intoxication of the human body due to the toxins secreted by parasites, which can lead to the development of a number of diseases up to malignant.Often, diseases caused by parasites take chronic in nature. The special danger lies in the fact that parasitic diseases cause symptoms characteristic of others, most often intestinal infections, therefore, timely differential diagnosis is of great importance to detect the type of parasite and develop adequate therapeutic tactics.

Types of human parasites in general can be divided into two large groups:

• Ectoparasite, parasitizing on the surface of the body and people feeding on blood (bugs, fleas, lice, ticks);They serve as carriers of pathogens of such infections as encephalitis, typhoid, anthrax, etc.;
• Endoparasite, parasitizing on the internal organs and lead to serious diseases;These include the simplest (giardias, amoebs, trichomonas, toxoplasmes) and helminths - parasitic worms (worms).

Classification of parasites

Consider in more detail the main types of human endoparasites.The appearance of many of them can be seen only under a microscope, and some, especially from among helminths, are amazing in their size.Let's start with the protozoa:

• lamblia, along with dysbiosis, are also the cause of hypovitaminosis, anemia and the general intoxication of the body.
• Toxoplasma affects the brain, eyes, heart muscle, nervous system, but they represent special danger for pregnant women due to the danger of the death of the fetus or severe lesions.
• Amoeba can cause amoebic dysentery,ammber encephalitis and other dangerous diseases.
• Trichomonas are sources of infectious diseases of the genitourinary system.

The most common parasites

The most common Endoparasite include, of course, helminths (worms), which, according to various sources, are infected with more than 80% of the planet.

A huge number of these parasites are divided into main types:

• Nematodes-round worms (ascarides, pinworms, trichinella, Vlasov, etc.);
• Cestodes-tape worms (ribbons, pork and bull-cloud, echinococcus, etc.);
• Tretoda-wormers (liver, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood.pulmonary lungs, as well as bores living in the intestines).

Sometimes you can find a more general classification, according to which all types of parasites of people are divided into:

• intestinal, parasitic in the intestines;
• tissue, localized in other organs and tissues.

However, most helminths at different stages of their life cycle take place both the tissue and intestinal period of developmentWith appropriate symptoms.

Consider a brief description of the most common types of helminths.

Round worms (nematodes)

• Askarides - The most common round worms with a length of 20 to 40 cm are parasitized in the small intestine, but pre -migrated in the human body, affecting the circulatory and respiratory system.Along with the intestines, these parasites can be found in the liver and gall bladder, heart and lungs.Frequent symptom of ascariasis is an allergic reaction.
• Tips - small worms up to 1 cm, affecting the intestines and leading to Enterobiasis with a disorder of the gastrointestinal tract, exhaustion, sleep disturbances, etc. A characteristic sign of the presence of pinworms is itching in the anus where they lay eggs.
• Trichinella - These microscopic worms (their size is only a few millimeters) lead to severe diseases - trichinellosis, which can lead to death in the absence of treatment.Adult species live in the body of people in the muscles (breathing, facial, etc.), causing muscle pain, fever, swelling, allergic rashes on the skin.- small worms (length up to 4.5 cm, with the front of the body
• the larvae of which cause trichocephalosis with diarrhea, acute abdominal pain and other symptoms resembling appendicitis. Due to intoxication of the body, anemia develops. Ribbon worms (cestodes)

whose body length reaches 10 m, leads to 10 m, leads to 10 m, leadsthe development of dipillobotriosis with nausea, weakness, vomiting, unstable stools, asthenia and anemia.

Pork tinge

• It has a length of 3 to 8 m, parasitizes mainly in the small intestines and causes two diseases at once: Taeniasis with Dyspeptic, Asteno-NeuriacIntoxication, intestinal, allergic and respiratory syndromes. Depending on the localization of TsistitSerki, muscles, brain, heart, eyes, etc.
• Свиной цепень имеет длину от 3 до 8 м, паразитирует преимущественно в тонком кишечнике и вызывает сразу два заболевания: taeniasis с dyspeptic, астено-невротическим и абдоминальным синдромами, и цистицеркоз с intoxication, интестинальным, аллергическим и респираторным синдромами. В зависимости от локализации tsistitserki поражаются мышцы, головной мозг, сердце, глаза и др.

• Bull Taper , the length of which can reach up to 18 m, causes tusiarinchosis and is considered one of the most dangerous types of worms.If Dehelmintization does not do, it can live in the human body under 18-20 years old!Localized in the large intestine, causes severe intoxication with products of its vital activity, as well as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, anemia, allergic reactions and problems with the nervous system.
• A dwarf tabbell-only 1.5-5 cm long-a source of hymenolepidosis with dyspetic, pain and astheno-astronomicalsyndromes from which, first of all, the digestive and nervous systems of the body suffer, as well as the liver. Echinococcus
• It is considered the smallest ribbon worm-its length is only from 2.5 to 8, rarely 9 mm, however, infection with it has formidable consequences in the form of liver and lung damage, where cysts and tumors are formed that cause dysfunction of these organs. Boarding workers (tremontodes)

liver Fluke, or liver bicarry

• The shape resembles a sheet 30-50 mm long and 8-13 mm wide, has suction cups.It damages the liver membrane and, clogging the bile ducts, is able to completely block the outflow of bile.It can lead to cirrhosis, jaundice and liver cancer. Cat (Siberian) Fluke, or cat bickelter
• , a flat slob 4-13 mm long.Localization - ducts of the gallbladder, liver and pancreas.Causes opisthorchiasis with the development of gastritis, ulcers, pancreatitis, cholecystitis up to liver cancer, which can lead to death., плоский глист длиной 4-13 мм. Локализация – протоки желчного пузыря, печени и поджелудочной железы. Вызывает описторхоз с развитием гастрита, язвы, панкреатита, холецистита вплоть до рака печени, что может привести к летальному исходу.
• Fluke pulmonary It has an egg-shaped shape, a red-brown body with small spikes with a length of 7.5 to 12 mm with a width of 4-8 mm.It affects the lungs, causing inflammation, exudative pleurisy, focal fibrosis and lung cancer.When penetrating into the brain, encephalitis and meningoencephalitis causes.
• Schistosomes (blood saucers) -Separate worms with a size of 1-2 cm, whose eggs cause an increase in the liver, spleen and lymph nodes, the formation of polyps in the intestines, diarrhea, granulomatous inflammation leading to bladder cancer

Helminthias can lead to numerous health problems, reducing life by 15-25 years.Many parasites are extremely difficult to detect.They can be anywhere - in blood, intestines, lungs, heart, brain.Symptoms of helminthic invasion can be confused with acute respiratory viral infections, gastrointestinal diseases and others.The main mistake in such cases is tightening!If you have suspicions of parasites, then you need to contact a specialist.If we talk about drugs and independent treatment, then from the most common helminths (ascaris, pinworms, chain) is an antiparasitic complex.

Helminthiasis, like other intestinal diseases, is most often “dirty hands”, which causes eggs and larvae of helminths into the human body:

• when they do not wash their hands after the toilet and before eating;
• Do not wash the vegetables, fruits and greens that are consumed raw;
• leave ready-made food products available for flies and cockroaches;
• use feces as fertilizer in garden plots;
• bathe in not intended for this reservoirs;
• contact with homeless animals.
• However, you can also become infected with worms, because often they serve intermediate hosts for helminths, and the mainThe master is precisely the person.
• Methods of struggle

From a very early age, to instill in children the habit of washing their hands.They need to do this more often, since they constantly join the sand, earth, puddles, where the most favorable conditions for eggs and parasite larvae are in contact with domestic and street animals. When any malaise occurs, it is impossible to exclude helminthiasis, therefore it is recommended to do appropriate parasites for determining a specific type of helminth (there are medicines against most of them.

• С самого раннего возраста прививать детям привычку мыть руки. Им это нужно делать чаще, так как они постоянно возятся в песке, земле, лужах, где самые благоприятные условия для яиц и личинок паразитов, и контактируют с домашними и уличными животными.
• При появлении любого недомогания нельзя исключать гельминтоз, поэтому рекомендуется проделать соответствующие анализы на паразитов для определения конкретного вида гельминта (против большинства из них существуют лекарства.
• If the parasites are found in one family member, drugs for helminthiasis should take everything.
• People's medicine is known for how to get rid of worms, and they give a good effect.
• Do not leave the prepared dishes, bread, baking, etc., so that flies or cockroaches - carriers of worm eggs do not leave them on products.Often there are helminths of helminths, well boil/bake/bake.
• Wlee vegetables, fruits, greens that are consumed raw in running water well.
• regularly deworming pets.
• Get feces as fertilizer as fertilizer in their garden plots.
• When traveling to exotic countries, it is extremely careful about local dishesThe kitchens, especially proposed on the street, have no guarantee that with them you will not pick up any no less exotic Vermes.
