Adults, like children, are often sick, despite the fact that science does not stand still and scientists have achieved good results in medicine. One of the main problems of mankind are parasites. In most cases, patients do not observe obvious signs, that someone has settled in their body.
In the human body, parasites can get out of the environment, through dirty hands, poorly processed meat or unwashed fruits and vegetables. What happens if there are worms? It will not lead to anything good - there will be a violation of digestive functions, and in some cases, failure of some organs.
Children, like many adults do not know what will happen if you eat a worm. That is why, often patients neglect personal hygiene and careful processing of food. Of course, no one will specifically swallow worms, but they can get into the body along with animal meat or fish.
So, what happens if a person has worms? It should be noted that getting into the stomach, worms remain alive, as they are able to withstand aggressive conditions. Parasites choose a convenient place for themselves:
- Liver;
- Small intestine;
- Other bodies.
If the worms live in the digestive tract, the first symptoms will be constipation. Although, if there is food with Giardia, the opposite picture will occur, and the patient will have diarrhea.
What happens if you do not treat worms?
Some patients are concerned with the question, what will happen if the worms are not treated? Some types of worms are able to settle not only in the digestive organs, but in the muscles, heart, brain. If you do not get treatment in time, helminths can adversely affect the functioning of the body.
Do not forget that worms release toxic substances, and they can eat all the substances necessary for a normal lifestyle. It is recommended to eat garlic and similar products. Thanks to them you can slow down the activity of worms.
What happens if you do not remove the worms, it's difficult to answer, because everything depends on which parasite has got into the body. At best, the bowel function will be disrupted, and the person will suffer from constipation or diarrhea. In the worst case, a serious illness can develop, and sometimes a lethal outcome occurs.
Attention should be paid to the following symptoms:
- Appetite was lost;
- Weight loss observed;
- Acne and rash appeared on the skin;
- Defecation broken;
- Depression and aggressiveness appeared;
- Pain in the abdomen.
Of course, such symptoms can also occur with the poisoning or the appearance of certain diseases. It is necessary to remember, whether it was necessary to eat delayed products recently. If this did not happen, it is best to see a doctor, most likely the helminths got into the body.
The lack of treatment is fraught with serious consequences, especially worms in childhood. In addition to the fact that for survival worms will eat all the useful vitamins and trace elements, they cause physical damage to the organs.
What happens if you do not exclude worms in children?
Babies are more likely than others to face the problem of helminthiosis. They often play with pets, dig in the sand and earth. On children, helminths exert more influence than on an adult. If you do not treat the worms, then you can have serious consequences.
Oysters are most often found in children. They attach themselves to the walls of the intestine, after which they begin to feed on its contents. In addition, pinworms can swallow blood. This damages the intestinal mucosa, and if you eat a large, poorly chewed food, there will be an allergic reaction. Often a child may be hurt when he starts to eat.
In the absence of treatment of worms, the nervous system released from them destroys the nervous system and the patient can notice:
- Dizziness;
- Weakness;
- Insomnia;
- Physical and mental fatigue;
- Headaches.
It will be best to start treatment in time. It is necessary to make a dietary diet, as many products are better not to eat with worms. You also need to remember personal hygiene, as children can re-eat larvae of pinworms that have fallen out of the soil or dirty animals.
Self-medication is contraindicated, since children can have not only pinworms, but also other parasites. Wrong treatment will not lead to anything good either. Preparations and products that can be eaten with some parasites are not recommended for others. Only a doctor, after diagnostics and tests can determine the type of worms and prescribe the right treatment.
After the removal of parasites from the body, prevention will be necessary, since there is a high probability that helminths will re-enter the children's body, which has not yet fully recovered.
