How to know if there are parasites in the body

Human parasites

Usually, a person does not consider his health and the number of internal parasites until he feels unwell. The patient does not know which expert to turn to to find out the exact number of parasites and the organs they damage. A person cannot diagnose himself, but he can easily determine the presence of internal parasites.

What parasites can live in the human body

There are two kinds of parasites that easily exist in the human body. They feed on all the useful elements in the body and produce substances that can promote physical activity.

  • Internal parasites. A parasite that lives in the human body. This type of parasites includes all bacteria, fungi, lamella and many viruses.
  • Ectoparasites. They live outside the human body. They feed on human blood and tissues. Ectoparasites include lice, bed bugs, ticks, mosquitoes and other insects.

It is much easier to recognize the failure of ectoparasites on the body. Their existence has external signs that it is impossible not to be noticed at all:

  • Skin rash and itching are observed;
  • Redness in certain areas of the skin;
  • Insect bites visible to the naked eye
  • Pain and burning sensation.

A microscope or special analysis can be used for more accurate research.

Unlike ectoparasites, endoparasites do not inhabit the outside of the human body. In this regard, it is difficult to notice them. These parasites can actually feed on people for many years, so patients won't even guess their existence.
