Pinworms And Threadworms
About threadworms, pinworms, and seatworms.
There are several types of worms (helminths), infections that humans are sensitive. Of these, the most common is by far the Enterobius vermicularis, also known as the nematode, or seatworm pinworms. Not to be confused with Strongyloides stercoralis worm is also known as "nematode" but it's a very different type of worm. The nematodes are named for their appearance, with adult worms as fine pieces of white cotton. The adult female nematode is larger than the male and can reach up to 1.5 cm long. The nematode is a nematode, which are different from other worms by unsegmented cylindrical body beveled at both ends. It is estimated that hundreds of millions of people have suffered a nematode infection one time or another. Nematodes Nematodes are humans frequently host specific. They are parasites because they obtain their food from an infected person.
Diagnosis and Symptoms
There may be little external symptoms that indicate you have an infestation of nematodes so they can go unnoticed. Common symptoms include intense itching sensation around the anus, usually in the evening or early morning. The itching, however, can also be caused by hemorrhoids, a reaction to the underwear, perianal eczema and pruritus ani. Other symptoms of nematode infestation include sleep disturbances, irritability, teeth grinding during sleep, or loss of appetite. In rare cases, stomach pain associated with mild gastrointestinal upset may be experienced. The nematodes do not cause disease but can cause urinary tract infections. You may notice a child that had not had a problem begins to wet the bed. Remember that many people with nematodes have no symptoms at all.
The most definitive evidence of nematode infection requires a little research. One method is to look to see if the worms are visible on the surface of the stools after a bowel movement. All worms look like small pieces of cotton thread moving fine and white. Such research can only be successful and even a good bank is only a detection rate of 20%.
Another method is trying to observe the worms, when they are moving in the night. If you suspect your child has worms, you can use a flashlight and check. This is probably best done as soon as the child wakes in the morning. The same worms appear to the naked eye. They "glow" under the torchlight.
Another possible method of diagnosis is to look for pinworm eggs deposited around the anus to the perianal skin. They are best detected during the night and look like small white spots. Alternatively, you can try to identify the pinworm eggs by using the "tape test". This should take place in the morning before bathing or going to the bathroom. Place a piece of double sided tape on a stick wood. If you use a piece of tape Single-sided, then make sure the sticky side of tape to the outside. Your local pharmacist should be able to give you some hypoallergenic tape, if you need it. Press on the tape against the anus and remove it. Pinworm eggs appear as small white markings on the tape. If you are not on this kind of test you can make an appointment early in the morning with your doctor and they can arrange a basis of laboratory tests for you, or they may be able to diagnose the infection based on symptoms alone.
Associated with these symptoms, scratching the perianal skin to relieve itching lead to secondary bacterial infection in the region, which aggravates the condition where the skin becomes inflamed or damaged. In rare cases, girls and women can develop a yeast infection, possibly caused by an attack pinworms that are left untreated. This is where the "abnormal migration" of a pinworm he took in the vagina, causing inflammation of the vagina, irritation and discharge. It's actually a sign of the body's defenses attack the intruder. Other than the discomfort it causes is not really a health risk that the pinworms will be able to survive in this region for a limited period.
Pinworm infestation of nematodes and seatworm
Although commonly associated with small children because of the close social interaction, and inattention to personal hygiene, threadworms are highly contagious, and adults are equally susceptible to the rapid transfer of infection. Threadworm infestations can quickly spread to the family or a group of people, such as kindergartens, schools and camps. Therefore, it is a good deal all the family if one member is infected with trichinosis.
Contrary to popular belief, the nematode infects humans only. The animals are vulnerable to a remote species of this worm, which does not infect humans. Pets such as cats and dogs are not part of the life cycle of nematodes, but may take if the pinworm eggs are transferred to your skin and hair.
There are two main ways you can get pinworms. The first is through direct contact with an infected person. The other is about to come into contact with an object or surface that has been contaminated by contact with an infected person. It could be anywhere, toilet seats, bedding, toys, food bank, clothing, door handles, food or furniture. The eggs can survive even in swimming pools. Contracting pinworms is not something that is associated with a lack of personal hygiene, but it is a daily danger for living together. When the eggs lose their grip, can get pinworms be as easy as breathing the air in the eggs of house dust. The eggs can survive in outdoor environments for about two to three weeks. Poor hygiene can contribute to the spread of pinworms when you entered. The pinworm eggs become infective within hours after laying.
Tiny eggs are difficult to see with the naked eye and stick to everything it comes in contact with. Invariably, the infected person's hands become contaminated with the eggs and become widely dispersed
People become infected when they ingest the pinworm eggs and begin life. After they have eaten the eggs hatch in the intestine. The shells of the eggs is dissolved by gastric juices. The larvae then migrate to pinworms young people to the large intestine to grow and mate. It takes about an incubation period of two months, have somewhere between 2-6 weeks for the ingested eggs develop into a sexually mature adult worm. An adult worm lives for about two months, although the matrix pinworm male after mating.
When a female is ready to spawn, comes to the anus of the human host while they are asleep and inactive. The female is up to 10,000 eggs, store them in the anus skin, before his death. At body temperature the eggs develop rapidly, and they become infected after about 6 hours. This is usually accompanied by itching and discomfort around the anus, which is due to mucus, or "glue" that a woman secretes threadworm eggs are stuck to the skin. These eggs are triangular in cross section and flat along the other side. When the host scratches in this region are moving their hands or their eggs, nails, their contamination and the cycle begins again. If the eggs remain in the skin anus long enough to hatch, then crawl back into the young adults mature anus intestine. This process is known as retroinfection.
The treatment of nematode infestations are pinworms and seatworm
For the treatment of pinworms, you must use a treatment as Vermox or Combantrin-1, which contains mebendazole or pyrantel embonate Combantrin containing as active ingredient. Mebendazole is an anthelmintic which acts by interfering with proteins in either the worm intestine or absorptive cells. This inhibits the ability of nematodes to absorb glucose (sugar), which depletes the energy they need to survive. As a result, pinworms die within days. Pyrantel embonate, a "neuro-muscular blocking agent", causing paralysis of the nervous system pinworms. Paralyzed worms then expelled in faeces by normal actions of the intestine.
These treatments are not intended to be used during pregnancy or for less than two years of age. If you want to use a worm treatments in these situations, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist.
These works deworming only adult worms are present in the intestines when the drug is taken. All the family or persons living in same household must be treated simultaneously. You should give your home a thorough cleaning after a treatment to remove any remaining eggs and to help prevent reinfestation. It is also a good idea to try them all again about two weeks after initial treatment, if you suspect that reinfection has occurred.
Here are some general hygiene measures you can take to help you get rid of the worms.
In the shower or bath the morning to remove eggs laid during the night.
Ensure that all personnel of the household towel and washcloth.
When changing the treatment of sleepwear and underwear of the person to infection daily.
Vacuum carpets as often as possible, especially in the bedrooms, to remove dust as possible.
The sheets are changed frequently, especially in the first 7-10 days of treatment.
Use warm washes laundry for some time to kill the remaining eggs.
Keep nails short of infected persons to reduce the chances of the eggs have been stored.
This also prevents the breath-taking among children.
Wash hands thoroughly after using the bathroom and before each meal.
Keep the toilet and bathroom cleaning.
Eggs can be raised toilet seats and door handles with a paper soaked in water.
If possible, do children wear cotton gloves at night.
It's a good idea to avoid eating food in your room.
Avoid foods and drinks contain lots of sugar, because the treatments containing mebendazole board worm attempts to glucose.
If you are using a treatment containing pyrantel embonate and eat foods rich in fiber help prevent constipation and assist the expulsion of worms.
