Hello everyone, dear readers! Today the topic will be slippery and not very pleasant, but very relevant. I decided to dedicate it to parasites, which are often "inhabitants" of our organisms. Imagine that there is a stormy life in the blood, the intestines, under your skin right now. Br! Someone will tremble at the thought.
But today it has been scientifically proven that half of the world's inhabitants are worm carriers, of which there are about 200 species and "breeds". That is, in theory, it also falls into the risk group. We give tests, you see, not so often. We live for ourselves, we go to work, to cafes and movies, and we seem to feel good. . .
Wait. It is OK? And chronic fatigue and a strange wet cough that does not go away for months do not bother you, diarrhea and constipation and other interruptions in the gastrointestinal tract? This is the same! But this is one of the signs of the presence of worms. Parasites in the human body cause a variety of symptoms. I also tried to summarize them in today's edition.
Long, round, flat and more
What human parasites do you know? Worms? Instead, it is their common name. But varieties are a huge slippery slope. Let's separate it to know who we will fight with.
- The worms that live in the digestive system are the largest group. These include worms, scrapers, worms, worms and more. Their photos can be viewed on the Internet "in stock". They come to us because of the infamous washed hands, as well as the raw and dirty fruits and vegetables, from poorly cooked meat and fish. If you have a cat or dog at home, then the chances of your worms are much higher.
- The second type are films: wide film, echinococcus, pork and beef. These helminths are much larger than the previous ones. Some of the wide strips can be over 25 meters long! Such worms can eat with their whole body, absorbing the substances they need inside you with their surface. They do not have a specific area of residence in the body, as they fly freely throughout the body, they also crawl to the brain and bone marrow. You can become infected by eating badly fried meat or half-cooked fish. That's why I never buy these products in spontaneous markets, "out of hand", because the sellers of these stores have clearly not heard of any veterinary checks.
- Subcutaneous parasites (filamentous nematode, dirofilaria) live under human skin. You can catch them in hot countries, for example, in Africa or India, from flies, mosquitoes or bedbugs. They are often visible: on the skin you will see a strange lump, which, if pressed, will slip away from the finger.
- Fluke worms: fascilopsis, hepatic fluke and others. Their habitat is intestines, liver, pancreas. The source is uncooked contaminated water, lightly salted, raw, poorly cooked fish.
- Tissue worms. They are also found parasitically in various tissues of our body, in the muscles, the brain, the connective tissues. You can get the infection from animals, both wild and domestic: pigs, cats, horses, ducks and chickens.
Parasites in the human body: symptoms
Theoretically, any of the above types can make their invisible attacks from the inside right now and you do not even know it. Many live with worms inside and literally allow them to eat for several years, until a random analysis orPhysical examination of the doctor to discover their eggs in your tests. These are quiet parasites that not only feed you, but also have time to multiply and release toxins.
I immediately wanted to get a trial coupon, right? But first, look at the indirect signs of their presence. Just do not panic right away and do not diagnose yourself. Many of these symptoms overlap with other medical conditions.
Well, you probably have worms if:
- Suddenly you are anemic. Have normal hemoglobin counts dropped significantly in the past? This may indicate that it is the helminths that steal your iron.
- You often feel sick for no reason and have strange abdominal pains. A detailed ultrasound examination of infected patients reveals many microsystems, ulcers, ulcers in the intestinal mucosa and other organs. This can cause inflammation and pain.
- Now diarrhea, now constipation. Do you eat as usual and the nature of bowel movements has changed significantly? Constipation can be caused by huge worms or small worms weaving in a ball. They, like a cork, close the exit for feces. Well, diarrhea is caused by micro-oils, which destroy the sodium and chlorides, which are responsible for the normal consistency of the feces, diluting it.
- Breaks the body, bones and joints. Worms can cause inflammation of the periarticular muscles and, as a result, discomfort. Acne, eczema, warts and other skin problems, as well as worsening of nails and hair, are caused by toxins released by parasites. Your liver can not process so many harmful substances that affect your skin and hair.
- Excessive thinness or rapid weight gain. Worms remove many useful substances from us, we lose them - we lose weight significantly, but they also eat sugar - and due to its lack, now and then we have a snack and get fat.
- Gas release and bloated stomach.
- Grinding teeth. They say that this is one of the most obvious signs, because in a dream, our body is relaxed and asleep, and the worms do not sleep, so there is an unconscious reaction - to brush your teeth and crumple them.
- Poor immunity. Its reduction is due to the fact that the body has now shed all its defenses against parasites and simply has no power over other viruses coming from outside.
- Drowsiness, lethargy, apathy and irritability with a normal diet and rest. Worms steal almost all the minerals and nutrients we need: potassium, magnesium, iron, calcium. Lack of them affects the nervous system and well-being.
- Itching. It usually intensifies at night, when worms accumulate in the anus to lay eggs. Doctors say that it is the night when we can meet the worm "face to face", to catch them in their dirty work.
- Incomprehensible cough without cold.
So, have you found 4-5 symptoms? To be honest, neither am I. And that means only one thing - it's time to go to the hospital to see a therapist, an infectious disease specialist, an immunologist or a parasitologist. After a thorough examination, you will be prescribed the necessary medications.
Parasites in the human body: expulsion
Be prepared for the treatment of the whole family. The rest of your household is also likely to be infected, as parasites are transmitted very quickly through personal hygiene items, household items and dishes.
Although all worm medicines are sold freely in pharmacies and without a prescription, you do not have to choose them yourself. Some of them only work on a certain type of worm and are completely useless compared to the rest. In addition, these drugs have many contraindications.
Garlic pest protection
Folk remedies, used by our grandmothers when there were no pills and pharmacies, are also widespread.
Now doctors suggest combining such treatment at home with prescriptions, so we use all the herbs described below only for prevention.
- Anise infusion is good for adding to a hot bath. After sitting for about half an hour, you will get rid of a small handful of worms. They just can not stand the strong smell of this herb that penetrates your skin, but you have to be patient for a while.
- Common sorrel kills parasites with its acid. Therefore, do not hesitate to chew the washed leaves in spring and summer. Ordinary raw pumpkin seeds are excellent helminths.
- Drink oak bark (200 ml - 2 tablespoons)
- Tansy also has a good antiparasitic effect. To prepare the broth, pour a tablespoon of flowers with a glass of boiling water and insist in a closed heat for 4 hours. Take a therapeutic mixture, after previously filtering, 1 tbsp. spoon 4 times daily before meals.
- Eat more garlic, onions and horseradish. For worms, the spicy smells of their death are similar, and at the same time you will correct your shattered immunity.
Do not think that one day all the parasites will leave your body in a friendly formation of their own free will. They will live inside you and feed you for a long time, so it is better to start taking them out immediately, otherwise in a few years you will have gray, earthy skin, brittle hair, digestive problems and a lack of all useful minerals. They will eat you alive, so do not let them do it!
