Sometimes major problems in a person are caused at first glance for minor reasons, for example, the appearance of microorganisms, subcutaneous parasites.No one is safe from them, so you need to have at least a common idea for it.
The main varieties of parasites
Among all the parasites whose object is human skin, skin and subcutaneous are different.The former does not pose a serious danger to people as they do not provoke diseases.Parasites feed on human skin with his blood.The second group breaks into the thickness of the skin, leaving eggs and larvae there.Such parasites in the body should become the object of careful attention.
If the parasites settle under the skin, then they never remain in one place but begin to move around the tissues in different directions.This most often leads to the most severe, sometimes incurable diseases.
The parasites are very small and are not visible to the naked eye.Doctors find their location, listen to the patient's complaints, analyze symptoms, signs, and identify the likely ways of helminth infection.
The most common:
- demodicosis;
- Philionosis;
- scabies;
- cysticis;
- Dracuncture;
- ankylostomidosis;
- Shstosomosis.
Any of the listed parasites can cause:
- pancreatitis;
- Diabetes sugar;
- eczema;
- Psoriasis.
Characteristics and manifestations of parasite infection
The most common parasites in humans are scabies that usually live in the deep layers of the epidermis.In the afternoon, they are busy looking for food, eat sebum and cosmetics.At night, they return to their shelter again, while causing severe itching.The rashes are formed and many bubbles are formed on the skin.People are often infected with animals, but the transmission of infection by a sick person is not excluded.
Subcutaneous worms and parasites include dragonculosis (Riste Worm).Some people reach a length of 120 cm.The worms are most often found in the tropics.It is easy to get infected with them, it is enough to swim in a contaminated tank.After penetrating the body, the worm has linger there for years.
These subcutaneous worms choose a person's feet as an object, causing:
- Inflammation of the joints;
- contractures;
- gangrene;
- Blood poisoning.
Demodecosis is a parasitic tick that chooses the sebaceous glands in the skin because of its habitat.Symptoms of the disease in humans are observed in the form of an abundance of acne on the cheeks, forehead and around the eyes often there is a loss of eyelashes.
Another representative of the subcutaneous worms in humans is cysticosis.The causative agent is a larva of pork strips.Body infection occurs through unstable water or food.The worms are localized in:
- areas of internal organs;
- brain;
- eyes;
- muscles and under the skin (palms, breasts, shoulders).
In the body, worms have lived for many years, manifesting themselves in the form of urticaria -like symptoms (rashes).Below the skin forms swelling, thickening, which ultimately become quite tight.
Residents of African and Asian tanks are worms that provoke schistosomosis.The worms affect the skin and the genius system.The main symptoms are expressed:
- itching;
- rashes;
- dermatitis;
- abundant sweating;
- kidney damage;
- Increasing the liver.
Another resident is the subcutaneous worm of Philariasis.It is considered to be the most dangerous species of parasitic helminths, since the nakedness has been able to multiply in the human body for many years without showing in the beginning.However, over time infected people begin to observe symptoms similar to urticaria, then there are problems with vision, the hills are formed under the skin and the whole fever ends.
Before traveling to hot countries, perform a vaccination that prevents Gelmin worm infection.
Diagnostics of pathologies
The successful treatment of a person by worms caused by worms is made with the correct diagnosis.The difficulty is that the symptoms of parasites are often similar to other pathologies of the internal organs, as well as signs of allergies.
In order to prescribe the right therapeutic course, which is guaranteed to remove subcutaneous helminths from the body, it is necessary to determine a specific type of pest.Different laboratory tests are conducted for this purpose:
- Direct diagnosis of parasites using strokes and scrapers taken from mucous membranes.Such procedures are justified in cases where the worms are clearly visible in different areas of the skin, accompanied by specific signs - redness and blisters;
- A blood test that establishes antibodies that are formed in the process of fighting parasites.As a result of the life of subcutaneous worms, substances are thrown into the body, which can neutralize the protective properties of antigens.This leads to a complete weakening of a person due to a disease found in the blood test.
To accurately determine the parasite, examinations are performed:
- saliva;
- hair;
- eyelashes;
- feces;
- Acne and blisters on the patient's skin.
For timely diagnosis of the disease, a person who noticed atypical itching and skin lesions should consult a specialist, not one, but several: an allergist, dermatologist, specialist in infectious diseases and a neuropathologist.
Disease therapy
The methods of treating the results of the vital functions of the parasites are diverse and related to the amount, level of skin lesions, symptoms, and location sites.Almost every occasion should be treated individually.Regardless of the symptoms, there are a number of traditional methods of parasite therapy.
The elimination of ticks under the skin of a person is done with the help of various medicines that can destroy subcutaneous worms and other types of pests.In many cases, doctors prescribe ascarroid drugs.
Antihistamines and ointments or antibiotic gels should be included in the course of therapy.It is advisable to add vasoconstrictive drugs such as adrenaline-raking solution to parasite drugs.Only the right choice of treatment and dosage regimen will successfully dispose of pathogenic pests from the human body.
When the parasite affects the internal organs of a person (for example, Drancules), doctors resort to surgery.Before performing the procedure, you need to prescribe a comprehensive examination that allows you to find the location of the worm in the body.Sometimes worms can even be in the brain.
You can get rid of parasites living under the skin using a conservative methodology and surgery.The therapy sometimes lasts for a long time, especially with hidden symptoms, so it is useful to add traditional medicine for traditional drug treatment in addition to traditional drug treatment.
Parasite prevention measures
The fight against subcutaneous parasites is sometimes slowed down for years, and inaction is fraught with the most unrenched effects.Traditional focus of parasites include water, products, sick people and a mismatch with hygiene rules.
Doctors' recommendations to prevent such diseases include the following rules:
- Before you eat, you should definitely wash your hands with soap.The same should be done after being in public places, such as in transport;
- You cannot use other people's clothes - neither for wearing nor even for installation;
- Food before use should certainly be washed;
- The affected areas of the skin immediately treat antiseptic and disinfectant drugs.
