People's inner flora is an excellent environment for habitat and active reproduction of microorganisms that belong to the pathogenic group.The types of parasites in the human body are usually divided into two variants - those whose finding is not felt and practically does not affect the general health, and those whose presence can be fatal.In the process of their lives, they can not only negatively affect the organs, but also release toxic substances that poison all living things.
Nematodes
Most of the parasites in the human body are the worms of the group of nematodes, diagnosed in both adults and children.Parasites may differ from each other at the site of their localization (in the intestine, liver, in the heart and even in the brain compartment), size, life cycle and even the time they are inside the body.
The most common types of parasites - nematoden are the following.
Worm
This microorganism parasites in the walls of the colon while spreading the eggs of its future offspring outside the large or small intestine, such as on the bed.Most often, this parasite is diagnosed in children.The worms cause itching in the anus, decreased appetite, grinding teeth in sleep and rapid fatigue.
The life cycle of microorganisms is about a month, and in size they reach 12 mm.Pinworms are very resistant to the external environment, the appearance of new species occurs 6 hours after laying eggs.
Toxocar
These helminths live in the body of cats and dogs and fall into the internal environment of a person in contact with these animals.This type of intestinal parasites can reach a length of 3 cm and be in all internal organs and vessels without missing out.
Askarids
Related to the type of the most dangerous infectious parasites in a person.They grow up to 3 cm in length and can live a long cycle.They penetrate all organs of the system, while simultaneously multiplying.
Trichinella
The parasitic invasion caused by the trichinella can lead to negative effects: swelling, fever, dermatitis, stomach disorder and any allergies, including food.The main difficulty in detecting these helminths lies in their microscopic size, usually not more than 4 mm.The genol that lives in the intestine is able to penetrate the blood vessels through which through the blood spreads throughout the body and precipitates into each organ.
Trematodes
In the gastrointestinal tract of a person, trematodes also live quite often.They have a flat shape and the presence of suction glasses.These additional organs are necessary to suck the human organs to suck out nutrients from them.
The classification of parasites according to the type of helminth includes the class of trematodes consisting of the following microorganisms:
- Opisthorchis is a simple parasitic worm that often lives in the stomach, gall bladder, pancreas and liver, leading to the development of gastritis, ulcers and pancreatitis.The intestines in any form as such is not very interesting to him;
- Strongyloid-Tentrinal Pretium, is a worm up to 2 cm long.It affects the gastrointestinal tract.His life expectancy is not great, but at the same time his activity manages to lead a person to asthma, gastrointestinal dysfunction, bronchitis, asthenia and other diseases.
Because trematodes have access to all organs and tissues of a person, their invasion is considered the most common and difficult to treat.
These microorganisms absorb a huge amount of tissues and blood, often deactivate the circulatory system.
Cestodi
Among all existing parasites living in a person, the most dangerous are the cestodes.The length of this helminth can reach 10 m.Thinking about what parasites live in the human body, it is difficult to imagine such a huge worm that is placed in the human body.They enter mainly if you eat contaminated meat.
The following types of cestodi are most common:
- Pork chain - grows up to 8 m long.Initially, the symptoms of invasion do not manifest themselves, but in the future the activity of pork tapeworms leads to the impediment of the intestine.It is also possible to develop asthenia;
- Bull Chain - can grow up to 18 m long.It provokes dangerous disorders for a person, including anemia, intestinal obstruction, allergies, gastrointestinal disorders and as a result, the nervous system;
- Wide band - the length of this parasite reaches 8 m.One of the few parasites in a person who lives in the small intestine.Causes anemia, asthenia, digestive tract problems and intestinal obstruction;
- Echinococcus is considered the most dangerous strip of worm, the infection of which in the first stages does not manifest by any symptoms.However, the spread of helminth in the body too quickly leads to the formation of tumors.
Properly
Thinking about the parasites in the human body, do not forget the possibility of infection with the so -called protozoa.This class of microorganisms has nothing to do with three groups of helminths, as it makes its special parasitic species that live in different human organs.
The protozoans belong to the class of endoparasites, which can be located in almost every corner of the body.This species was named for a simple structure consisting of only one cell.Nevertheless, they are able to awaken various dangerous diseases in the human body.
The main types of parasitic protozoa:
- Trichomonas.Despite the presence of only one cell, they have a very complex structure.There are several types of parasites of this type, depending on the degree of localization: rotating, intestinal and vaginal.The most common infections that occur in the presence of this body in the reproductive system.Often trichomones lead to prostates in men.Affects the brain and nervous system;
- Lamblia.Localized in the intestine.They lead to dysbiosis, gastrointestinal tract and general intoxication of the body.They are usually attached to the mucous membrane of the duodenum, where they are actively multiplied;
- Amebas.Capable of causing asthenia and stomach disorders, as well as creating intestinal obstruction;
- Toxoplasms.This parasite is very dangerous for a pregnant woman as it can cause miscarriage in the early stages.In addition, toxoplasms cause eye diseases, nervous system and heart.
The special danger of infection of the human body with the simplest unicellular microorganisms is that in most cases an developing infection occurs asymptomatic.
Ectoparasites
These types of parasitic microorganisms, such as ectoparasites, make up a separate group of dangerous infections.This class differs in that its representatives are localized exclusively on the surface of human skin, but are still able to infect it with such dangerous diseases as anthrax, typhoid fever, encephalitis, tripanosis and others.
It is not difficult to recognize the appearance of parasites in this group, as they generally cause noticeable discomfort to their master.The main effects of their bites include the appearance of allergic reactions, itching and burning.
The main ectoparasites in the human body are:
- lice;
- ticks;
- Blood -suffering bugs;
- Fleas.
You can only deal with such microorganisms with the help of special tools.In addition, the room, bedding and clothing are usually required.The exotic ethnicities that can be taken while traveling are very dangerous.The bites of some of them may be fatal.
Symptoms
The fight against the parasites in the human body, regardless of the place of their localization, must be fulfilled and in accordance with the doctor.Nevertheless, an important point is the proper diagnosis of infection with dangerous microorganisms.
The following are usually the following symptoms that the human body has been subject to parasite infection:
- Constipation - is determined by the obstruction of the gut associated with large size worms.In addition, helminths are able to block the stones in the bile, causing painful discomfort in the lower abdomen;
- Frequent gas formation - usually caused by worms inside the small intestine.This also includes SO -demonstrated irritable bowel syndrome;
- Diarrhea - The thinning of the stool is caused by special substances secreted by some of the microorganisms.Too frequent liquid stools can talk about infection;
- Allergic reactions - usually occur in the life of the vital activity of the microorganisms within a person.Eczema and skin rashes are also possible;
- Discomfort of pain in the joint and muscles.If this function is manifested for no apparent reason, parasites are required.Some of them prefer to live exclusively in joint fluids and muscles, and pain is a response to the immunity of the appearance of microorganisms;
- Weight weights, appetite problems - associated with poisoning with people with the products of vital activity of parasites and lack of glucose;
- Chronic fatigue syndrome, sleep disturbance, anxiety and irritability.It says more often that the body's resources are exhausted due to the active activity of the parasites in it.
There are many types of parasites that can be established in the human body.Most infections in the first stages are completely asymptomatic.However, the treatment of parasitic invasion in the early stages is considered to be the most effective and simple.
