One of the symptoms of damage to the human body by worms is anemia, as a reaction to the vital activity of some species of parasites.

Characteristic manifestations associated with possible infection with parasites are as follows:

  • loss of appetite;
  • pallor of the skin;
  • hypotension;
  • arrhythmia;
  • impaired vision and memory;
  • dyspnea;
  • menstrual cycle disorders in women;
  • hair loss;
  • brittle nails;
  • apathy;
  • is sleepy.

In addition to the above symptoms of anemia, other manifestations may develop, depending on the individual characteristics of the organism.

The occurrence of such symptoms is due to the fact that helminths, parasitizing the internal organs of the gastrointestinal tract, gradually multiply and use more and more resources vital for their "donor".The immediate cause of anemia in helminthiases is the depletion of iron stores in the body, which leads to the dilution of blood and the loss of vital activity by man.

Immediate causes of anemia can be colonies of Trichomonas and other protozoa in the intestines. Adhering to its mucous membrane, parasites consume more and more nutrients and blood components as they develop and reproduce, worsening its quality.

In addition, scientific studies in recent years have confirmed that there are several types of worms that feed exclusively on blood( which directly leads to the occurrence of anemia).Namely, these are worms, such as:

  • hookworm duodenalis;
  • switch;
  • ascarid larvae;
  • are sloppy;
  • schistosomes.

To combat these types of worms, it is necessary to use complex therapy aimed at complete suppression of their vital activity, as well as restoration of hemoglobin level in the blood.

Children are especially often affected by anemia in helminthic infestation. If you find that your child has skin pallor, lack of appetite, lethargy, and loss of interest in previous activities and fun games - immediately contact a toxicology doctor. Most likely, these manifestations are the result of defeat by worms.

Fighting anemia of this kind is possible only after clearing the body of worms. In such cases, along with the funds from the antihistamine segment, doctors recommend to maintain a complete diet, from which it is necessary to exclude sweet, and flour, if possible.
