Signs of infection with parasites in people and diagnostics

The doctor gives advice to the patient

What are the signs of the presence of worms in humans, the symptoms of helminthiasis are durable or temporary?Is it possible to recognize the disease in the early stages of development and how to do this without consulting doctors?

There are many specific symptoms that directly indicate the presence of dangerous "neighbors" in the body.

The main signs of helminthiasis

Symptoms of the presence of worms are diverse in adulthood.There are many signs that worms live in the body.

List of specific services:

  • The parasites of the human body lead to pain in the intestine;
  • There are problems with the chair;
  • Bruxism (a characteristic rattling of teeth that occurs at night);
  • A person loses weight (weight loss occurs to eat the parasite at the expense of the owner and deprive it of the necessary vitamins and micronutrients);
  • stomach irritation (colitis, irritated bowel syndrome continuously);
  • Sleep disorders occur (the patient may be disturbed in the anal region, which occurs due to the release of egg parasites).

These symptoms of infection are specific, which can directly indicate the presence of body parasites.

But there are non -specific symptoms of the presence of parasites, these are:

  1. Cough, breathing problems, inflammatory process in the respiratory system.
  2. Headaches, blood pressure problems in the blood (blood pressure levels may be high or suddenly decreased).
  3. Nervous surge (unstable state of the psyche).
  4. Local type of allergic reactions.
  5. Granulosis (larvae grow with connective tissue and form a small tumor formation).
  6. Oncological diseases (develops in the background of immune system activity).
  7. Weakening of immunity (development of autoimmune diseases, frequent acute respiratory viral infections and acute respiratory infections).
  8. Inflammation of the kidneys or pyelonephritis (occurs against the background of parasitic disease).
  9. Inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis with the obstruction of the channels).

The disease may manifest differently, but indirectly, these signs indicate the presence of helmin.

Signs of infection depending on the affected organ

First signs of parasites of the human body:

The patient during the examination by a doctor
  • If the liver is affected.There are signs of cholelithiasis, the channel is clogged with larvae or adult helmin.There are yellow spots under the eyes, the skin changes the shadow.After a meal, there is an unpleasant taste, bitterness, and pain appears in the right hypochondrium.
  • If the intestines come in contact.The first signs of intoxication occur, anemia appears.Body weight suddenly decreases and increases.In the background of the helmintus invasion, other symptoms of weakness, fatigue and overtime appear.The appetite is weakened and nausea appears after a meal.There is pain in the intestine, bloating, pain in the stomach after a meal.
  • If the kidneys are affected.Typical signs of pyelonephritis arise, urine outflow is disturbed, and the structure of the kidneys is inflamed and modified.The pain appears in the lower back, and during urination there is pain syndrome.
  • If you touch the lungs.The lungs and bronchial tissues have ascarid larvae, which the infected person has a lasting, very unpleasant cough.It's hard to cope with the drugs.After jerking, the spitting appears.
In the early stages of development, it is quite difficult to recognize the disease.The parasites of the human body have not yet settled.

Symptoms depending on the type of parasite

More information on the symptoms of manifestation of worms in humans:

  1. Askarids.The infection goes differently, but when it is in the gut, an adult female invests up to 25,000 eggs and a special shell, consisting of 3 layers.The eggs are in the intestine, with sufficient amounts of oxygen and observing the temperature conditions, the egg becomes larvae and is "passed" through blood flow.In the lungs, the larva leads to the appearance of cough.With the jerking, he goes to the gut again, where he continues to develop and, after a while, becomes a mature person.The life cycle of ascarides is 12 months.This year, the individual is in the intestine, investing eggs that appear with excrement.
  2. Vlashev.Due to the properties of the structure, this worm may violate the integrity of the intestinal membrane.It is nourished by human blood, while its presence in the intestine leads to various consequences.Since the worm is in the colon, its operation (food for the host of the host) leads to a secondary infection, appendicitis occurs.
    3. Types of parasites
  3. Speakers.These are parasites, belonging to the intestinal class, and most often amazed children.If the measures are not taken on time, the risk of developing enterobiosis is high.In the case of repeated infection, the risk of relapse the disease increases.
  4. Echinococcus.It exists in many forms, cysts can infect tissues, setting a certain cavity.But the parasite itself lives in the gut, it can be infected by contacting animals (cats, dogs, homemade pigs) and spreads to people from humans.
  5. Wide ribbon.It enters the human body in the form of larvae, and the infection occurs after fish for fish, which did not comply with proper heat treatment.The larva enters the small intestine, where it lives and develops for a long time, an adult individual can be several meters long.
  6. Speakers.This intestinal yarn most often affects children.Causes enterobiasis.In the absence of treatment, remission may occur if the probability of the re infection can be minimized.

Changes are constantly observed, the body cannot recover, it is difficult to cope with the loss of blood and nutrients.

Methods of infection and possible consequences

What is the danger of worms for a person:

  • leads to a weakening of the immune system (in the background of the lack of immunity, health problems);
  • Chronic anemia appears (worms feed on blood, nutrients and vitamins are absorbed);
  • In the background of the infection, leukocytosis develops (the level of leukocytes in the blood increases as the body is actively trying to cope with parasites with white blood cells);
  • If a large number of helmin live in the intestine, it can lead to obstruction;
  • cholecystitis (occurs when the tributaries of the bile are clogged with worms);
  • Pneumonia (at the stage of migration, the larva can fall into the lungs and cause inflammation).
Parasitic infection through the ground
If the disease is inappropriately chosen, it is done early or completely absent, and various diseases occur, both inflammatory and autoimmune.

The way of spreading worms:

  1. You can infect if you contact a person with halminths.
  2. Drops in the air (inhalation of eggs).
  3. On water and through the water.
  4. Through the ground.

It is not difficult to infect with helmints, and it is sufficient to regularly ignore personal hygiene rules to ensure that there is a certain nature of problems.

Diagnostic methods

Diagnosis of worms in one person is done in several stages:

  • Donate blood for analysis;
  • Remove stool for analysis;
  • Make a radiography.

Blood tests are performed to detect increased amounts of increased leukocytes and eosinophils in the blood.

Analysis of the stools of worms is only effective if a person lives in a person's body and is in the migration phase (ie already invested eggs), which the doctor detects during the examination and in the stool.

The X -Ray has its own characteristics and is in line with the doctor.Based on the results of the study, the necessary information on the presence of parasites in the respiratory tract and in the gastrointestinal tract can be obtained.

X -Ray device

What are the signs of parasites, taking into account the results of the tests:

  1. Leukocytosis (increased amount of white blood cells in the body).
  2. Eosinophilia (eosinophils, blood cells have increased in blood).
  3. The appearance of worms in the stool.

The causes of the appearance of worms are different, and statistics show that people around the planet are approx.85% are infected with helminths.The reason for this is that the treatment of helminthiasis has its own properties, is done using various drugs and, in some cases, is not very effective.

How to find out that there are parasites in the body:

  • It is worth consult a doctor when characteristic symptoms occur;
  • Complete the necessary tests;
  • Get the results.

The signs of the appearance of worms in a person are not as clear as at first glance.Therefore, if certain problems occur, you should not be attracted to the doctor.
