The second type of bacteria are ectoparasites. They live on the surface of bodies, that is, in our nature, on our body. They are nourished by the cells of our tissue, for example the skin, and our blood. In particular, these are parasites such as bedbugs, lice, fleas and ticks. Mosquitoes and flies are also known as ectoparasites.

How to determine the presence of parasites in the body based on the symptoms

How to find out if there are parasites in the body can be both in appearance and in internal state.

There are many symptoms associated with parasites. Since these symptoms are very popular, they are also symptoms of common diseases. People usually don't even suspect they are in the body. Therefore, the symptoms are treated separately and come back again after treatment.

Symptoms of the digestive tract

Symptoms of the presence of parasites in the human body
  1. constipation.Worms can be very large. Hence, they can block some of the outlets of the digestive organs. Some parasites can close the intestinal and bile ducts completely. This usually affects your stool. It can be rare and difficult;
  2. diarrhea.It is widely believed that diarrhea is a well-known reaction to poor diet. However, this is not always the case. Many bacteria produce hormones that affect stool in this way.
  3. gases and flatulence.Very often, parasites are found in the small intestine and this usually leads to gas, followed by bloating. When the bloating is almost constant, this is an opportunity to think about the possible presence of parasites in the body.
  4. irritable bowel syndrome.Since parasites live on substances in our body, such as fats, the intestinal walls are very often irritated. This is followed by a number of symptoms and a decrease in nutrient absorption. The substances are not absorbed, but reach the large intestine immediately, which leads to problems with the digestive tract.

Almost every parasitic invasion in the blood test increases the number of eosinophils.

Joint and muscle pain

Parasites have a certain ability. They can live, move through the body, and have the task of settling in the most comfortable place in the body. One of these places is the synovial fluid and muscles. The symptoms are painful, usually similar to arthritis symptoms, but this is not always the case.

Parasites cause significant damage to muscle tissue or immunity. Therefore, their presence in the body develops into muscle pain.

External manifestations of parasites

external manifestations of the presence of parasites in the body
  1. allergies.Parasites are constantly releasing toxins. Toxins severely damage the body, as large doses of special protective cells are released. They affect the body, and this leads to the appearance of allergic reactions.
  2. problem skin.Parasites can not only cause allergies, but also various skin ulcers, acne or pimples and other external reactions. So think again if you have persistent skin problems. This will help determine the presence of worms.
  3. anemia.Many bacteria "steal" nutrients and this leads to blood loss. From this follows a lack of iron;
  4. weight problems.It is generally accepted that worms can only reduce weight, but this is a big misconception as parasites can add weight. In the case of a large weight loss, the reason is always that the worms ingest our food faster than we do. The weight loss symptom is a proven way to tell if you have worms. Obesity, however, is more complicated. It appears due to the low levels of sugar in our blood. As a result, an irresistible appetite appears, as it negatively affects the metabolism. Obesity can also be just a defense reaction of the body.
