In the body, in addition to the spiritual essence, there are a number of other life forms that are not always favorable to human life. It is common to be shy when it comes to the unpleasant life forms that are attached to us. There are parasites that poison our body, coexist in it and multiply.
And every person has a problem: how to treat one of the most common diseases, how to cure worms?
This is the question that worries everyone and we will try to answer it.
To understand what it is, you need to determine how worms appear and how to treat them:
- enter the human body because it is infected by lower multicellular organisms, parasitic worms, through the external environment;
- parasites, or helminths, are found in insects, fungi, and plants, as well as vertebrates;
- helminths are found in 60% of the population, but this is not the worst thing, because in people of Asian origin, laboratory diagnosticians find 100% infection with various forms of helminths.
The products of their vital activity in humans, they cause all sorts of diseases. To get rid of these symptoms is our direct task, because worms in an adult suppress vital activity and even reduce motor activity.
From worms there are all kinds of side effects to an adult. How to get rid of this disaster and how to treat worms, let's try to understand from the recommendations of experts.
Symptoms of the disease
From the beginning, you need to make sure that a person has worms according to their outward signs. To do this, you need to know the symptoms of the infection, which are as follows:
- acne on the skin;
- nausea;
- weight and its changes with increasing appetite;
- unstable chairs;
- bad breath, increased gas and belching;
- headache and irritability;
- uncharacteristic odor of feces and urine;
- inflammation of the lymph nodes;
- asthma attacks and coughing;
- weakness and fatigue;
- excretion of helminth parts in feces;
- itching in the anus.
These symptoms should alarm any person and make you think of consulting a professional. Only a specialist in the field of diagnosing such diseases will be able to answer the question of what is the treatment for a particular parasitic infection in adults.
Types of parasites in humans
To know how to treat it, it is important to understand what kind of parasite we are dealing with in adults. There are a number of types of helminthic infestations, which vary in both symptoms and their effects on the human body.
There are the following types of parasites:
- foot worms, itching in the anus, is a sign of infection with small round worms;
- trichinella, enter muscle mass through vessels and cause swelling and pain;
- whipworm, a source of problems with the gastrointestinal tract;
- ribbons, various types of large length ribbons;
- roundworms, quite long, roundworms that cause problems with the airways and bile ducts.
All kinds of these invasions are associated with the use of insufficiently processed foods and non-compliance with hygiene rules. The presence of pets also often leads to parasite infection.
The attending physician, who discovered the symptoms of bodily injury, should confirm the diagnosis with the help of laboratory tests. Scratches from the anus area, fecal tests for worm eggs, enzymatic analysis, endoscopy and ultrasound are used for this.
Treatment methods
People who want to recover from an annoying problem choose either a medical method or traditional medicine. It should be noted that the combined treatment of worms will also be effective, after consultation with the observing physician.
Remedies for worms are prescribed by a specialist based on laboratory test results and personal experience.
In itself, the presence of worms in an adult is not a diagnosis of a complex disease and it is not the body that needs to be treated, but the removal of parasites from it that interferes with its normal functioning.
Therefore, medicines for worms aim to suppress the functions of their vital activity or the ability to absorb nutrients, which leads to their death.
According to this principle, they are divided into the following types:
- in the muscle tissue of parasites, the drug blocks nerve impulses;
- do not allow the absorption of glucose, which leads to the death of parasites;
- blocks the intestines of worms;
- affect the ability to move.
In addition, drugs are widely targeted and narrowly focused on a specific type of parasite. Based on experience, treatment methods and laboratory results, the attending physician selects a specific medication for each case.
Prolonged-acting antiparasitic drugs are used to stop their growth by blocking metabolic processes.
A narrower range of anthelmintic drugs affect tapeworms.
In addition to worm preparations, agents are used that eliminate the body's allergic reactions in the treatment of invasions. They allow to reduce the general intoxication of the body when eliminating worms in adults and are intended to reduce symptomatic phenomena. Medications for the treatment of the patient, as well as the procedure of their reception, are selected by the doctor on an individual basis, taking into account the course of the course of helminthiasis.
Mebendazole-containing medicines are used for enterobiasis and trichuriasis. Diethylcarbamase-containing drugs are suitable for the treatment of filariasis, including diseases of the visual organs and lymphatic system. Medications containing Levamisole are used for influenza worms and ascariasis. Befenia hydroxynaphthoate is used against roundworms. And piperazine adipate gives a good effect on ascaris and enterobiasis.
Albendazole-containing tablet preparations bring relief from echinococcosis and cysticercosis. In severe cases of helminthiasis, therapy is performed using: hemodesis, glucose solutions. Cordiamin is used for high blood pressure.
The supervising physician will be able to prescribe the necessary course of treatment and select a medication from a wide range of medications applicable to a particular case. It is very important not to hide the problem and at the slightest symptoms similar to worm infection, consult a doctor.
Alternative treatments
Medication, although effective, has side effects. There are people for whom medications are contraindicated.
In this case, we will examine the methods of non-drug treatment, namely:
- Ayurveda;
- oxygen treatment;
- treatment based on alcoholic beverages.
Ayurveda not only normalizes vitality and increases overall body tone, but also serves as a method to get rid of worms.
The cause of helminth infection, according to the followers of this lesson, is the lack of hygiene and purity of thoughts. Dirty, evil thoughts, laziness and despair are the causes of decreased body resistance to external influences.
Exercises that saturate the human body with cosmic energy help maintain health and find inner balance. At the same time, it is important to cleanse the body of toxins with the help of laxative decoctions, and then use spices and hot decoctions with food. Thyme, wormwood and St. John's wort will be very helpful. After a week, you can repeat the laxative decoctions so that the parasites leave your body.
Oxygen treatment has long been known as a way to expel helminths from the human body. The essence of the process is that a special tube is inserted into the esophagus and oxygen flows through it. This procedure is repeated for several days and stimulates the excretion of parasites, while saturating the cells of the gastrointestinal tract with oxygen.
Ozone therapy is also used for this, but the tube is inserted into the anus and an ozone-oxygen mixture is supplied, which acts on the parasites in a paralyzing way. It is also possible to use enemas with olive oil and ozone. These types of treatments allow you to get rid of worms very effectively.
For an alternative treatment, use a mixture of cognac and tea in equal proportions, drinking on an empty stomach along with a laxative. A large spoonful of cognac is drunk for five days, and ten days later a second course is taken.
A good remedy for helminths is vodka, with garlic heads inserted into it. Apply with a large spoon for ten days.
