The creatures that live in the body of animals, humans, birds and fish and eat at the expense of their carrier are called parasites.The life of such organisms in the human body does not lead to anything good, parasites can cause serious complications and even a fatal result.Consider the most detailed types of parasites in the human body.Below is a detailed classification of the parasites.
Varieties
Appropriate
These include Giardia, Dysentery Amoeba, Trypanosoma, etc.
Worms
- Round Worms: Round worms and plugs of pegs are well rooted in the human body
- Flat worms: The human body is an excellent place where they can live the tape of pork and bull, the seventeenth, etc.
Insects
- Lice and fleas
- Ticks and flies
It is quite difficult to combat such types of parasites, because in the process of your life they are justified and reliably united to the walls of the organs using special suction cups and hooks.
Some people can live in cells and tissues, and it is almost impossible to eliminate them from there.This applies to worms.The situation with insects is a bit simpler, since they are generally found on the surface of the body, where they can be detected and destroyed over time.
What parasites live in the intestines?Then, we will analyze each of its varieties and places where parasitic worms and protozoa live.
Appropriate
Absolutely invisible parasites.Among the protozoa there are also harmless representatives: green avoidance, shoe cylinder, etc.
The most dangerous for humans are:
- Plasmodium malaria.
The bearer of this type of parasites is a mosquito that lives in South America and Central Africa, where a warm and humid climate.Such conditions are favorable for Plasmodium's life.Clinical symptoms already appear a day after the microorganism begins to live in a person, or rather, in their liver.The signs of infection malaria parasites include: severe headache, nausea and vomiting.After a few days, an infected person rises sharply, diarrhea begins and the rapid dehydration of the body begins.
The treatment must begin immediately, when the first symptoms appear.For this, the patient is placed in a hospital where the necessary laboratory studies are carried out, an anamnesis is assembled and proper therapy is prescribed. - Lambia and dysentery amoeba.
These types of parasitic protozoa live in the gastrointestinal tract.Both a person and any animal can become a carrier.The favorite places where parasites can live their entire life cycle are the thin intestine and the upper part of the large intestine.
The sources of this type of parasites in the body are dirty fruits and vegetables, raw water.The first symptoms appear quite fast. The main sign of Giardia infection or a lovely dysentery is an abundant liquid chair.Then the temperature increases, a strong vomiting begins.If you do not take measures in time, there is a risk of death due to strong dehydration of the body.
Flat worms
This type of parasites in the human body is also very dangerous.These worms are called plans because the shape of your body resembles the flat tapes.There is also the most harmless type of flat worms for humans: these are ciliated worms.But about dangerous parasites, flows and strips worms, let's talk in more detail.
- Brochures
In size, the flat worms of this species are small, but are united to the walls of human organs very firmly thanks to their suction cups.The flows, mainly parasitating in the liver and intestines, cause constant headaches and strong weight loss.These vermes can penetrate the lungs and even in the brain in the course of their life, causing serious consequences.The source of the flows is dirty water and plants. - Tape worms
This type of worm has a very large length, and constantly grows entirely.Throughout his life, the strip worm can grow to 6.5 meters. Representatives of the strip worms (bulls and pork chain) can reach a length of up to 10 meters.Parasites live in a person's intestines, namely in a thin.The most dangerous type of strips worms is Echinococcus, which can affect the brain and lungs.Losing weight with normal appetite is the main sign of infection with tape worms.
Round worms
These species are mainly found in children: childhood gardens and primary students.
The most popular are round worms, these are worms and ascárides, and both have the ability to parasitize in the intestines.
These types of parasitic worms are not attached to the walls of human organs, since round worms have no device for this, however, it is not easy to take them out.Lombriz tend to put eggs on the folds of the anus, which causes unbearable itching of the perianal region.The children infect "in a circle": comb the place of itching, the larvae of the permanent worms remain in their hands and under the nails, and when the child accidentally puts his fingers in his mouth, the infection occurs again.
Currently, according to the statistics of the World Health Organization, a little more than half of the population around the world are infected with a variety of parasites.Very often it happens that some types of intestinal parasites can settle and function in the absolutely asymptomatic human body for many years, without betraying themselves, but at the same time eat juices and vitality of a person, which causes irreparable damage.
And if the symptoms appear occasionally, then people in the rhythm of modern life simply do not notice them or do not give them much importance.And very in vain.There are many formidable and irreparable consequences.
Experts recommend at least once a year to take parasite tests: feces, blood.After all, it is the timely detection of parasites in humans and a competent treatment that will guarantee a higher quality of life.
What happens to a person whose body parasites live for a long time?
- Forces are exhausted as the propagation and growth of parasites.
- Immunity is reduced considerably, since the body throws all its forces into the pests to fight.
- Anyone, even the simplest virus or infection can affect a person, since the body cannot protect against viruses.
- In the course of their life, parasitic individuals emit toxins, which gradually accumulate in the human body.It is gradually poisoned, which is full of several infectious and even malignant diseases.
