Prevention of helminthiasis

How to quickly get rid of worms at home

In modern society, worms are still widespread. Especially often helminthic invasion occurs in children, hunters, fishermen and their families, as well as rural residents.

No matter how carefully parents monitor the cleanliness of the hands of their children, it is almost impossible to protect them from worms (pinworms). Children explore the outside world, nature awakens a special interest. They want to touch everything with their hands, taste it. People who eat fish, meat of wild animals and birds, homemade milk are at risk of contracting trichinosis and diphyllobothriasis.

How can you get worms?

To protect yourself, you need to know about 4 ways to spread and infect with worm eggs:

Children are much more likely than adults to be worm infested. This is due to the fact that the child's body is poorly protected (protective mechanisms are only being formed), and the child is actively in contact with the external environment. Parents should make incredible efforts to accustom him to the elementary rules of personal hygiene. A baby under 6 years old is at high risk of infection. According to statistics, about 95% of children under 4-5 years old become infected with worms. Therefore, special attention must be paid to prevention.

By what signs to recognize helminthic invasion?

Signs of the appearance of worms in humans are obvious and hidden. The obvious ones include "unreasonable" weight loss, a pale appearance (anemia of the skin), chronic fatigue, nighttime itching in the anus. These manifestations are well known and indicate infection.
Not infrequently there are cases of helminthic invasion, in which diseases of the internal organs are exacerbated, diseases that have not previously manifested occur. These are considered hidden signs. A person is taken to the treatment of many diseases, and the cause is left without attention. In this case, the therapy does not bring results. Here are examples of such cases:

• Often the occurrence of itching in the anus;
• The appearance of a rash on the skin;
• Cases of headache, dizziness became more frequent;
• Sudden frequent bouts of nausea. Vomiting without poisoning;
• The intestines are not in order (gas, pain, diarrhea, constipation);
• Sleep disorders, insomnia;
• Sudden swelling of the legs;
• Allergy in the form of cough, bronchitis, asthma attacks, skin reactions;
• Lymph nodes are inflamed or enlarged;
• Sudden pains that pass quickly;
• Bitter taste in the mouth between meals;
• Weakness, fatigue for no particular reason
• If you are in contact with children of preschool age, visit childcare facilities;
• Sudden increase in temperature without concomitant diseases;
• The skin and mucous tissues look yellower than usual;
• Do you have pets that you have constant contact with?
• Pain in muscles and joints in the absence of overexertion;
• Nighttime snoring and clenching of teeth during sleep;
• You ate dried fish, lard and other poorly processed meat products in the last couple of months;
• You lost weight without any changes in diet and lifestyle;
• You sometimes eat vegetables and fruits directly from the garden or from the store without washing them or scalding them with boiling water.

If the likelihood of infection with worms is present, then it is urgent to deal with prevention and treatment. Read more about this below.

It is not recommended to start self-medication. About 60 types of worms are widespread in our country, and for each it is necessary to select the appropriate preparations. Usually, doctors use 10 types of drugs and their analogues in accordance with the type of helminths. These drugs have a mild detoxifying effect on the patient's body.
