The worms

Few people think about the different types of diseases that are caused by worms, distributed among the different categories of people. For example, in children is the most frequent infection of the pinworms. The people who work with animals — trihinelles, operating in the fisheries sector — difillobotrios.

the worms that

Modern medicine has proved that many diseases, which at first sight may not be associated with the worms, they develop precisely because of the presence of worms in the human body. The danger lies in the fact that it's not always in the presence of parasites, will manifest the characteristic symptoms. Often, this is perceived as the symptoms of diseases of the various organs. A man can very long period of time useless to treat a disease that is non-existent, but after a course of drugs against the parasites, and the speed can be cured.

Methods of infection the parasites

The worms can penetrate the body in various ways, and here are some points:

  1. Geo-helminthiasis — enter the body through the ground, in which are contained the eggs of the worms fell to the ground together with the excrement of people and animals, also due to even a slight contact with the animals, and a stroke of eggs for edible products, the bearers of which are insects.
  2. Contact the parasites pass by the people among themselves, this is about the pinworms, the most widespread in the form of a helminth.
  3. Bio helminthiasis — can be infected with a bad power supply, that is to say, the abuse of raw or not before the end of the processed fish or meat products.

Often the man gets infected by worms faecal-oral route way, that is, when the eggs of the parasites penetrate into the body together with the drinking water or food.

Through the soil

After each interaction with the sand or potting soil you need to carefully manage your hands, and remove the dirt from under the nails. It is safer to wear the nails very short, and this is especially true of children. Before consuming the foods that grow in the ground, they do not need to wash, but it is advisable to wash with boiling water.

Children in the highest risk of being infected by parasites due to the interaction with the animals, or the animals that are walking down the street. The animal can be infected absolutely any type of worms.

From person to person

The pinworms infection is very easy when contact. The adult is able to postpone a night up to several thousand eggs. They are deposited in the anal area, and this causes a strong itching. Man, when you sleep, combing her hair, and the eggs fall through into the arms, bed linen, clothes and other household objects, to which tap.

In this way, a huge portion of eggs remains on all surfaces, and if a healthy person does not wash his hands with soap and water before eating, they enter her body through the esophagus.

Through the water

A lot of eggs of the pest enters into the open water. For this reason, people who live in the villages and the villages are highly susceptible to infection by worms. It is very important to boil the water and cultured in wells or springs. Open water swimming is very dangerous due to the high probability of inadvertent contact with the water in the stomach.

To a greater extent infection helminths are the children. This is due, in the first place with their sensitivity towards the development of parasites, due to the weak developed defenses of the body, and also due to low level of acidity in the stomach unlike an adult. Very often the boys take in the mouth, various objects, not a reminder of the need to respect the hygiene, so the risk of infestation in healthy members of the family, in which there are children, is very large.

None of the types of pests can't be in a support organisation to the infinite. Each species there is a cycle of life, after which individuals die.

the development of parasites in the body
  1. Ossiuri they will not live even months, and roundworms can remain in the body for a whole year.
  2. The eggs, which have been set aside, out of the body with the feces, or falling on the skin in the anal area.
  3. Enter the environment, they mature, and again penetrate into the body of the support, while continuing to parasitize there.

Increase in the number of adult parasites in the intestine more likely to occur when infected when the eggs are once again falling through the esophagus in the body. When it comes to infecting the pinworms to avoid re-infestation is possible through the respect of strict rules of personal hygiene.
