80 % of all diseases - from parasites, modern scientists suggest. Doctors do not rule out the fact that they can be the cause of cancer. According to statistics, Helminthic occupation is observed in 90 % of the Earth's population, which means almost everyone in the danger zone.
In children, the risk of infection is much higher, as the child's immunity is weaker than an adult. Moreover, without control by parents, children often neglect the elementary rules of hygiene: they do not despise eating insignificant vegetables, fruits or berries from beds or wood, lazy to wash their hands, play with animals on the street, and swallow water from the nearest pond is a common thing. Often from the holidays, children turn thin, pale, lethargic, with complaints of nausea, abdominal pain, skin and itching.
Despite the fact that most adults are more attentive to personal hygiene, an adult can become infected. The main risk factors: snacks in public catering areas, where even if the sanitary standards are observed, there are dishes for which the necessary heat treatment, the child's illness did not pass. Symptoms in adults: weight loss, mood swings, fading and obsessive vomiting, hypochondrium pain, itching. However, there are parasites, the presence in whose body it is impossible to imagine without a special test.
When to check?
It is recommended to check for helminths twice a year - in spring and autumn. The severity of the consequences of helminthiasis varies depending on the endurance of the body and, of course, the type of parasite. So, without proper treatment, the disease can result in mild anemia, or it can lead to intestinal obstruction that is life -threatening. Among the other consequences of an unpleasant disease: the perforation and inflammation of the gall bladder, pancreatitis and toxic-allergic reactions to the skin.
Treatment methods
It should be remembered that parasites can infect several family members at the same time (and pets as well). In no case should you be treated independently and take anti -amalastic medication for a preventive purpose. There are no universal anthelmintic drugs, and different helminthiasis is treated with different medicines that the specialist must prescribe, guided by test results. Common tests for worm eggs are not enough, as they can detect away from all types of helminths. Sometimes you need antibodies for antibodies to parasites, from the results of which will depend on further treatment. Care of the health of a pet, namely, should be entrusted to a qualified veterinarian.
After therapy, doctors, as a rule, prescribe an enterosorbent, whose purpose is to remove from the body poisoning the body in the vital activity of the body of parasites. For example, the modern enterosorbent "Enterosgel", which absorbs the toxins secreted by the helminths, and removes them naturally, cleaning the body and restoring normal intestinal microflora.
PREVENTION
However, if possible, it is better to prevent the disease than to treat. In preventing helminthic occupation in children and adults, personal hygiene comes first - washing your hands before eating, after walking and contacting animals. It is important to completely rinse vegetables, fruits and berries. Even the note "does not require washing" in the packaging of a fresh salad does not guarantee safety. To protect yourself, it is worth abandoning the vessels that are consumed in raw form: soil, mussels or blood steaks can seriously damage the adult organism, not to mention the baby. Also try to dinner in reliable institutions and order the vessels that have undergone heat treatment.
