Worms in humans – symptoms and treatment

Helminthiasis or worm invasion – the attack of the organism parasites. Obtaining infected with worms may every person – from the domestic animals, through home appliances, unwashed hands, raw fish or meat. Such sources is a huge number, so in real life it is difficult and almost unreal hacking worming. Infection with worms often manifested under the guise of other diseases – disorders of the digestive system, impaired vision, disease of the liver and other internal organs. This complicates the diagnostic process and leads to the inefficiency of the established therapy.

Worms in an adult may be different, each of which, a settlement in the human body provokes the development of a particular disease, or several. If it is the cause of these diseases are the other seasonings, and no parasites, treat is can be quickly and efficiently. In the opposite case, conservative therapy is pointless, because the treatment should be directed on elimination of symptoms, but rather on the removal of causes – worming.

The main types of worms

In nature there are about 250 species of deworming. For each of them requires certain conditions for their existence and development. Worms differ among themselves in size, shape and other typical symptoms. The classification of these parasites, yet the end was not created and is not approved by the scientists. The distribution of worms on a territorial basis also has a place. This fact complicates the classification of parasites.

In countries in the middle latitudes with temperate climatic conditions can count more than 20 types of deworming, which are divided into three groups depending on the appearance and form:

• Round (hookworm);
• Tape (cestodes);
• Flat (flukes).

Each of these groups counts into the hundreds of varieties of worms-parasites. Hookworm and flukes more widespread in nature than the tape parasites. The human body – is an ideal environment for multiplication and growth of pinworms and Ascaris. Also often occur and Trichinella. To Cestoda include bull, pig, rat apni, broad tapeworm.

Signs and symptoms of worms in humans

Worms, parasitic in the human body, in the truest sense of the word "suck" from it all forces. The first symptoms that indicate the presence in the body of the worms, are expressed by chronic fatigue, sudden weight loss, improvement or loss of appetite. Itching in the anal area also points to the possible infestation of worms.

The symptoms of parasitic infestation of the organism may also be indirect symptoms characteristic of gastrointestinal diseases, neurosis, dermatological diseases and allergies. It can be:

• Pain in the abdomen, nausea and vomiting, constipation, diarrhea;
• Constant fatigue, weakness, headache, fever, drowsiness, lethargy, insomnia;
• Disruption of the structure of hair and nails, allergic rhinitis, urticaria, itchy rash, dry spasmodic cough, bronchospasm;
• On the background of weak immunity of the defeat of the organism to various infectious diseases and inflammatory processes (other chronic diseases, reduces the body's defenses, and becomes an excellent target for the breeding of pathogenic microflora and infection).

Due to the fact that the signs pointing to the presence of worms, are similar to symptoms of other diseases, rarely manage to immediately find out the true cause of the disease and prescribe the right treatment. It carries with it the deterioration of the human condition and possible complications, in which parasites multiply, destroying the "favorite" authority, and that spreads throughout the body. One of the most serious complications may be internal bleeding, liver failure, bowel obstruction and more.

Diagnosis of worms in the human body

For the detection of worms in the body formerly were used two methods: duodenal sensing and analysis of feces, urine, saliva, depending on their kind on the topic of the detection of eggs worming. These methods of diagnosis were not perfect, because a large role in the research is the human factor. The results are directly dependent on the expertise and qualifications of the laboratory that did this analysis. An inexperienced specialist could not discern the signs of the parasites in the studied material.

Science has progressed, and now there are more informative and accurate methods of diagnosis of worm invasion – immunological study of the biomaterial, which give the ability with high accuracy to provide content in the blood of antibodies and antigens to various kinds of deworming. Such include:

• ELISA (immunoassay methodologies for the worms). The veracity of the results of this method exceeds 90%. This study shows whether the parasites and the eggs of worms in the body cycle of their development and the type to which they relate.
• ELISA tests – specially designed tests that show the body's response to parasitic infestation. This method is not independent. It should be used with ELISA (laboratory microscopic research).
• Serological methods (REEF, Phragmites, CANCER, RAHL). These methods are most commonly used for the diagnosis of helminths, acute phase.

• ULTRASOUND, X-rays of the internal organs.
• CT (computed tomography), endoscopy.
• PCR – detection of invasion of the body intracellular parasites, and protozoa.
• Bioresonance diagnostics – research, which allows for a certain characteristic parasites of the frequencies calculation in the body at an early stage.

Modern methods of diagnosis with high authenticity of the results can detect not only the fact that the infection of the organism with the worms, but also to determine their type, age and degree of development, which greatly facilitates the task of doctors and speeds up the process of healing a person.

Treatment of worms in adult human

• Hygiene – washing hands with soap and water after toilet, public spaces and transport, before and after a meal, use a personal towel and soap, bed and underwear;
• Eat only thoroughly wash fruit, vegetables and products, to drive the thermal processing;
• Destruction in residential interior design, especially the kitchen all kinds of insects (mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches), which move the eggs worming on the legs or on the jalhay;
• Avoid to drink water from unreliable sources; consuming water you need boiled;
• Медикаmентnadirty prevention – the application of anthelmintic drugs with the regularity of 4 - 6 months, or when there is obvious risk of infection; in the preventive purposes-to apply the same medicine and for the treatment, just in a smaller dose.

Application mедикаmентnadirty funds is carried out on a doctor's recommendation after consultation. After the implementation of the prevention of helminths, through two – three weeks is held to repeat the course, to exclude the probability of the emergence of new parasites from the earlier eggs.
