Types of parasites in the human body is exceptionally diverse. Their number, together with multi-cellular and protozoan cysts, viruses, bacteria and fungi, the parasites at the expense of the human organism, although in the Tradition of medical viruses and bacteria, not as mere parasites.
We consider the main types of endoparasites of the people. The many appearance of them can be seen only under the microscope, and some, particularly from the group of helminths, amazing for its size. We start with the simplest:
- Giardia along with dysbiosis are also the cause of hypovitaminosis, anemia, and General intoxication.
- Toxoplasma astound the brain, eyes, heart muscle, the nervous system, but they were a special danger for pregnant women because of the risk of fetal death or severity of his low.
- Amoebae are able to cause the amebnuju dysentery, amoebic encephalitis and other dangerous diseases.
- Trichomonads are sources of infectious diseases of the genitourinary system.
The most common parasites
Include the most common endoparasites helminths (worms), which, according to various data, has infected more than 80% of the population of the planet certainly.
A large number of these parasites can be divided into the main types:
- Nematodes – nematodes (roundworms, pinworms, trichina, whip worm, etc.);
- cestody tape-worms (lentetsy, pigs and cattle tsepen, tapeworm, etc.);
- trematody – worms-flukes (liver, blood, lung and tape worms in the gut).
Sometimes you can be divided on the General classification, after the people are all kinds of parasites in:
- translucent (gut) parasites in the intestine;
- Tissue, localized in other organs and tissues.
But most go through a worms in different stages of their life cycle, and fabric, and intestinal Phase of development with the corresponding symptoms.
You are viewing a brief description of the most common types of worms.
Round Worms (Nematodes)
- Roundworm – the most common round worms with a length of 20 to 40 cm, parasitize in the small intestine, but migrate in the human body, by the circulatory and respiratory organs. Together with the intestine, this parasite, bladder, heart and lungs are found in the liver and bile. Common Symptom of Ascariasis – an allergic reaction.
- Pinworms – small worms, up to 1 cm, the intestine and lead to the enterobiasis to work with of the disease the gastro-intestinal, fatigue, sleep disturbances, etc. a Characteristic Symptom of a pinworm itching in the area of the Anus, where they lay eggs.
- Trichinella – this is a microscopically small worms (the size of only a few millimeters) lead to severe diseases – trichinosis, which if left untreated, lead to death. Adults inhabit the body of the people in the different types of muscles (respiratory, face, etc.), causing muscle pain, fever, swelling, allergic skin rashes.
- Whip – small worms (length up to 4.5 cm, with the front part of the body
in the Form of threads), the larvae of which trihozefalez cause diarrhea, acute abdominal pain and other symptoms of appendicitis. Due to intoxication of the organism, an anemia develops.
Tape-worms (cestody)
- Broad tape-worm, the length of a body reaches 10 m, leads to the development of difillobotrioza is checked with nausea, weakness, vomiting, unstable chair, asthenia, and anemia.
- Swine tsepen has a length of 3 to 8 m, parasitized mainly in the small intestine and causes two diseases: taeniasis with dyspeptic, asthenoneurotic and abdominal syndromes and cysticercosis with noise, and bowel, allergies, and respiratory syndromes. Depending on the localization tsistitserki homeopathically to muscles, brain, heart, eyes, etc.
- Bullish tsepen, whose length can be up to 18 m, caused teniarinhoze and is considered to be one of the most dangerous types of tape worms. If you do not do deworming, it can be old to live in the human body for up to 18-20 years! Localized in the large intestine, causes severe poisoning products, as well as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, anemia, allergic reactions, and problems with the nervous system.
- Dwarfish tsepen a length of only 1.5-5 cm source hymenolepiasis with the stomach sick, the armbar, and asthenic-neurotic syndrome, from which they are suffering, especially of digestive and nervous System of the body, as well as the liver.
- Echinococcus is considered to be the small tape worm – its length is only 2.5 to 8, rarely 9 mm, but infect it has threatening consequences in the Form of lesions of the liver and the lung, where the cysts and tumors, dysfunction of these organs.
Worms-Flukes (Trematodes)
- Hepatic Fluke, liver or Fluke shape is reminiscent of a leaf is 30-50 mm long and 8-13 mm wide, has suction cups. It damages the shell of the liver and bile ducts clog, is able to completely block the flow of bile. Can addiction cirrhosis, yellow, and liver cancer.
- Cats (Siberian) Fluke, or cat's dvuustka, flat worm, a length of 4-13 mm. Localization – the ducts of the gallbladder, liver and pancreas. Causes opisthorchiasis with the development of Gastritis, ulcer, pancreatitis, cholecystitis until the cancer of the liver, which can lead to death.
- Pulmonary Fluke has an egg-shape, red-brown body with small thorns, with a length of 7.5 to 12 mm and a width of 4-8 mm. The lungs, inflammation affecting, pleural effusion, focal fibrosis, and lung cancer. During penetration in the brain encephalitis and meningoencephalitis caused.
- Schistosoma (blood flukes) – dioecious worms in the size of 1-2 cm, the eggs cause an enlarged liver, spleen, and lymph nodes, formation of polyps in the bowel, diarrhea, granulomatous inflammation, and cancer of the urinary bladder.
Sources of contamination
Helminthiasis, like other intestinal disorders, most of the "disease of dirty hands", which causes the penetration of the eggs and larvae of worms in the human body:
- if not wash hands after the toilet and before eating;
- Can't wash, fruit and herbs, which are consumed in raw Form;
- not on meat and fish sufficiently or not heat-treated;
- consumption incorrectly salted fish and fat;
- food preparations can be accessible to flies and cockroaches;
- use of faeces as a fertiliser on allotment gardens;
- Bathe in non-designated waters;
- in contact with stray animals.
Also, your pet can also be caused by viruses, such as worms, because often animals serve as intermediate hosts for helminths, and the host is the human.
Methods of struggle
- To vaccinate from an early age children the habit of washing hands. You need to do it more often, because they constantly potters in the Sand, soil, puddles, where the most favorable conditions for the eggs and larvae of the parasites, and in contact with the house and street animals.

- If parasites are a family discovered in a member of drugs for Helminthiasis all should.
- Folk medicine, there are many ways on how to get rid of worms, and you give a good effect.
- Not left open prepared meals, bread, pastries, etc., to the flies or cockroaches are the carriers of the eggs – not had them on the products.

- Well Can, rinse under running water fruits, herbs, which are consumed in raw Form.
- Regular deworming of domestic animals.
- The use of faeces as a fertiliser on their allotment gardens.
- When traveling in exotic countries to be very careful about the dishes of the local cuisine, especially on the road, – there is no guarantee that they are not using them hook something less exotic worms.
Types of parasites in the human body
Many centuries in the human body and parasitized malicious creatures at the expense of valuable waste products, for a long time dwelt in the organs and tissues, literally, the vitality of the host to suck. could be successful There are different types of parasites in the human body, in the body many billions of different individuals can be.
According to the type of localization
Gut (live in the gastrointestinal tract, hitting the small intestine):
- Round Worms.
- Tape worms.
Extra-intestinal (find it in different areas of the human body, mostly in the liver, brain):
According to the method of infection,
Pierce transferred to the end (from an infected Person to a healthy through the contact with him or the use of funds for personal Hygiene (towel, toothbrush, dishes, toys)):
- Dwarfish tsepen.
- Pinworms.
Bio-helminth (the infection occurs through contact with animals or consumption of infected meat, not enough heat treatment) are:
The diversity of parasites in the human body
- Bullish tsepen.
- Swine tsepen.
Geohelminths (the infection occurs through unwashed May, fruit, herbs):
According to the biological peculiarities
To belong to this group of parasites:
- Tape worms.
- Round worms.
- Flukes.
Prevention of infection
Strict adherence to the rules of Hygiene helps to prevent infections of parasitic worms.
We should not forget hand washing soap with anti-bacterial, and in particular after the visit of the public streets and places, toilet room and prior to the preparation of food. You need to cut your nails and clean them regularly.

The vital activity of these organisms in the human body will not lead to anything good, parasites can cause serious complications and even death
Consider the types of parasites in the human body. Below is a detailed classification of parasites.
Worms
- Round worms in the human body acclimatizes well, ascarids and pinworms
- Flatworms – the human body is an excellent place, where pigs and cattle can tsepen housing, hepatic Fluke et Al.
Insects
To fight with this kind of vermin is quite hard, because in the course of the life activity sure to settle and attach to the walls of the organs with special suckers and hooks.
Some people can live at all on the cellular level and in tissues, and from there, almost unreal. This applies to worms. With insects it is a little easier, since they are usually on the surface of the body, where you have to recognize them and to destroy in a timely manner.
What parasites live in the intestines? So, we will consider each of their variety and of the place where the parasitic worms and protozoa.
Protozoa
Absolutely invisible to the naked eye parasites. Among the protozoa there are harmless representative – green eyes, animal, ciliate Slippers et Al.
The most dangerous for humans are:
Carriers of this type of vermin, the mosquito, living on the territory of South America and Central Africa, where the warm and humid climate. Such conditions are favorable for the life of Plasmodium.
The clinical symptoms manifest themselves the next day after the micro-organism in the human being begins to live, or, for example, is better in his liver. To the signs of infection Malaria Plasmodium severe headache, nausea, and vomiting.
After a few days infected people dramatically, the body temperature rises, diarrhoea starts, comes rapid drying.
- Giardia and dysentery amoeba.
These types of parasitic protozoans live in the gastrointestinal tract. The carrier can how humans and every animal. Favorite places, where the parasites life cycle their entire life, is the small intestine and the upper portion of the colon.
Sources of this type of parasites in the body are dirty the fruit and Can, the raw water. The first symptoms occur fairly quickly. The main feature of the infection Giardia amoeba or dysentery is an abundant diarrhea. Then the temperature rises, the strong vomiting begins. If you don't take action on time, there is a risk of the death of a strong dehydration.
Flatworms
This type of parasites in the human body is also very dangerous. These Flat worms called because the shape of your body resemble flat ribbons. There are also harmless for humans, flatworms oleraceum worms. But the dangerous parasites – flukes and tapeworms – are talking about them more.
The size of flatworms this kind of small, but take to the walls of the organs of the human body is very resistant thanks to its suction cups.
Fluke, parasites, mainly in the liver and intestines, causing anemia, constant headaches and dramatic weight loss.
These worms can penetrate in the course of your life, and in the lungs and even into the brain, leading to severe consequences. Source bloodsuckers are dirty water and plants.
Representatives of the tapeworms cattle and swine tsepen – reach lengths up to 10 meters. The parasite lives in the intestine of the human being, in the subtle.
The dangerous nature of the tapeworms Echinococcus is, you can't beat that as our brain and lungs.
Weight loss with normal appetite is the primary Symptom of infestation of tape worms is.
Prevention
Prevention is an essential part of combating parasites. It has been, for example, what are the parasites in the human body. About the worms and protozoa, the modern medicine offers a great selection of medications for the prevention and control of pests.
