The human body is an ideal habitat for helminths.According to medical research, 95% of the population, regardless of age, is their carrier.
Parasites are living organisms that attack the internal organs and eat the cells and nutrients "host".They penetrate any of the body's system and remain in the organs for years or the whole life of a person.Some parasites do not cause significant disruption in their host lives.However, most of them lead to the development of disruption in the function of the host body.
The main passage of penetration
Most parasites do not have their own nervous or cardiovascular system.Their genitals release tens and hundreds of thousands of eggs into the environment.Larva and eggs are resilient and remain viable for a long time.
Experts identify the following ways to infect the body with parasites:
- water and contaminated soil;
- poor food processing (eating vegetables -dirty or fruits, less cooked meat or fish);
- Contact animals;
- insect bites;
- close to relationship with parasitic carriers;
- Violation of personal hygiene rules.
Helminths type
Today, more than 300 species of parasites are known that they can live in the human body.Pinworms, which are small parasites up to 1 cm long, are quite common.They affect the large and small intestines.
Let's see closer to the most common:
- Pinworms.These are small parasites up to 1 cm long that affect the colon and small.They can appear from the rectum at night to place eggs on skin folds and underwear.They enter the body through dust, dirty hands, through the linen and dishes.
- Toxocars.This parasite is found in the digestive tract of the dog (about eighty percent of the puppies and fifty percent of the adults are infected).However, thirty -seven percent of these parasites are also carriers.The toxocara eggs are spilled in the dog's stool into the sand and soil.Infections occur through dirty hands.Worms can infect the eyes, lungs, heart, brain, and muscles.
- Circular round.Parasites enter the human body through food, raw water, dirty hands, and are carried by flies and other insects.Worm length reaches forty centimeters.Round worms eat red blood cells and nutrients, affect the human brain, liver, eyes, heart, and can cause allergies.
- Hookworms.Parasites enter the body through the skin while walking barefoot or with food.The worm size does not exceed 1.5 centimeters, the larvae migrate and behave like a circular worm.The features of this helminthiasis are itchy rash on the feet and severe anemia.
- The worm is wide.Helminth has been able to live on humans for twenty -five years and reach ten meters long.Infections occur through the use of unprocessed fish, caviar shrimp, caviar and other seafood.Tape worms can cause anemia and intestinal obstruction.
- Pigs and worms of cow tape.Penetrate the body with raw meat products.The life expectancy is twenty years.The danger of infection lies in the ability of helminths to penetrate the eyes and brain.
- Echinococci and alveococci.These parasites enter the body through contact with sick animals, drink contaminated water, dirty berries and vegetables.The larvae infects the liver, lungs, bones, kidneys and leads to the development of cysts.
- Giardia.These parasites are often found in groups of children.Penetrate the body through dirty hands, toys, and household items.Giardia leads to decreased immunity, appetite, memory, abdominal pain, allergic development, nerve disorders, and urinary incontinence.


Symptoms of helminthiases
Parasites in the human body always release various toxins.This can cause internal organs, decreased immunity, allergic development, increased burden on the liver, and the destruction of beneficial intestinal microflora.
The following symptoms may indicate the presence of parasites:
- Disruption in the function of the digestive system: diarrhea, increased gas formation, colon syndrome, constipation;
- pain in joints and muscles;
- allergy;
- Bronchial asthma;
- anemia.Some helminths can eat red blood cells;
- weight loss;
- obesity;
- mental disorders.Parasitic toxins have adverse effects on the nervous system.As a result, one becomes angry, depression, panic attacks, and others occur;
- bruxism (teeth grinding during sleep);
- Intestinal dysbiosis;
- decline in immunity.Some helminth suppresses the production of immunoglobulin A, and one becomes helpless to the virus;
- Respiratory system inflammation;
- Oncology.Long-term helminthiasis leads to the deterioration of epithelial cells into cancer.
Disorders in the functioning of the digestive system may indicate infection by parasites: diarrhea, increased gas formation, colon syndrome, constipation.
Sometimes the disease shows itself as a mental disorder.Parasitic toxins have adverse effects on the nervous system.As a result, one becomes angry, depression, panic attacks, and others.

There are certain symptoms that indicate certain types of parasites:
- With ascariasis, patients complain of dizziness, stomach aches, anxiety, anxiety, nightmares;
- When pinworms penetrate, sleep disorders, loss of appetite, itching in the anus, and anxiety will be observed;
- Tape worms cause diarrhea, pain in the liver, and increased appetite.During stool examination, helminth is usually found.
If you suspect a parasite attack, you should consult your doctor immediately.Doctors will be able to prescribe comprehensive examinations and effective medications that will eliminate helminths from the body.
Helminthiasis therapy
As part of the treatment of the disease, anthelmintic is used that can effectively destroy worms.
Based on the principle of influence, they are usually divided into 2 groups.The first causes inhibition of glucose entry into parasite cells.As a result, the metabolic process is blocked and the helminth dies.
Antihelminthic drugs are indicated to combat various types of parasites, and some drugs for a combination of helminthiasis.
The second group of drugs is able to block nerve ganglia, which causes paralysis of the worm.The duration of therapy with these medicines is 3 days, and if necessary, the course is repeated.
In the pharmaceutical market there are plant remedies that allow you to get rid of parasites.These drugs contribute to the cleansing of the body of helminths, their toxins.As a result, metabolism is normalized, increased immunity.To achieve therapeutic effects, the treatment is from 1 to 3 months.Next, special drugs are used, which helps eliminate parasite waste from the body, protecting from intoxication due to worm decomposition.
How to take antiparasitic drugs?
Anthelmintic medications are available independently in pharmacies, doctors do not need a doctor's prescription for their purchase.Remember:Self can have a negative effect on your health.That is why the medication should be prescribed exclusively by the doctor and only after the examination.After all, not all drugs can affect both strips and round helminths.
Frequently, doctors are prescribed at the same time by some anti -ansrax agents for comprehensive treatment.
At the same time, the following therapy scheme is used.Initially, taking a single drug that can disable helminths.After 3 days, other drugs are used, which helps destroy the worm completely and remove it from the body.It is necessary to follow the instructions for the therapy to be effective and short.
During helminthias treatment, enterosorben intake is indicated.This will reduce the body's intoxication due to the destruction of helminths.
People's recovery in the treatment of helminthiases
Effectively remove helminths from the body at home.It is enough to apply one of the recipes listed:
- Pumpkin seed infusion.The seeds are cleaned and chopped thoroughly in the mortar.Pour the resulting mass into the container and pour the water, you can add a spoonful of honey or jam to taste.Drink after waking up, divide 7 ceremonies for 1 hour.After 2.5 hours, they take a laxative, after 40 minutes they make an enema.

Important to remember:For effective therapy, not only to eliminate worms, but also to measure the consequences of their important activities (anemia, allergies, intestinal dysbiosis).
