Treatment of ascariasis by folk methods
Askaridosis is a helminthiosis that is characterized by the migration of larvae in the human body, including the subsequent development of sexually mature individuals in the intestine of the patient. Clinically, this disease manifests itself as an allergic reaction and abdominal syndrome.
Diagnosis of ascaridosis
For the diagnosis of ascaridosis, the coprogram method is used( detection of larvae and eggs of parasites in human feces).A more reliable method is a serological test( detection of antibodies in the blood) - in this case, the patient needs to pass a blood test for ascariasis.
Askaridosis has such symptoms:
- pain in the abdominal region( can suddenly arise and immediately pass);
- mild jaundice, more often pale skin;
- low body weight( in children);
- lack of appetite and aversion to food;
- nausea, vomiting, increased salivation;
- constipation or vice versa diarrhea;
- frequent colds;
- the presence of helminths or their fragments in the stool.
It should be noted that the diagnostic methods mentioned above are only effective when the mature ascarid has already laid eggs. Therefore, in other cases, you can use the bioresonance method, which will help identify both adult ascarids, and their larvae and eggs.
Methods of treatment of ascaridosis
The common treatment of ascariasis in adults is the use of anthelmintic medication, for example, vermox( mebendazole).However, this medicine can lead to increased motor activity of helminths, as a result of which antiperistaltic, vomiting and the ingress of parasites into the respiratory tract can occur. It is for this reason that children are given Vermox only in exceptional cases.
In addition to specific drugs, the patient should take multivitamins and enzyme preparations. If there is anemia, iron preparations are also prescribed and a full-fledged protein diet is provided. In severe cases of ascariasis, treatment is performed by parenteral administration of solutions of calcium chloride, calcium gluconate and ascorbic acid. In rare cases, complications arise that require surgical intervention.
But how to treat ascariasis if a person has an individual intolerance to a drug medication? An effective remedy for this disease is oxygen. It is administered in the morning with the help of a gastric umbrella on an empty stomach or 3-4 hours after the first meal for 2-3 days. The amount of oxygen introduced in one session is 1500 ml. After the procedure, the patient needs to lie down for a couple of hours.
This method of treatment has its contraindications, which include peptic ulcer and inflammatory diseases in the abdominal cavity.
After 3 weeks, the effectiveness of treatment is monitored by a triple examination of the patient's stool.
Treatment of ascaridosis in children
This disease is very common among young children. Since timely diagnosis is very rare, ascariasis in a child is already found at the stage of serious complications. So how to cure ascaridosis in a child?
Unlike pinworms, ascarids from a child's body are not taken out on their own. Complete disposal of these parasites can only be medicated. In addition, parents should understand that this disease can not be cured only by phytopreparations or herbal preparations. All means of this type can only serve as a supplement to the main treatment.
With the diagnosed "askaridosis", treatment should be appointed either by the attending physician, or by a parasitologist. In addition to the drug that affects ascaris, the child is shown to take antiallergic drugs, as well as drugs to improve intestinal motility and normalize the microflora. If the child is breastfed during the period of illness, the mother should continue to breastfeed the baby for at least 2-3 months.
Antibiotics and immuno-strengthening therapy are used only with frequent inflammation of the respiratory tract. After recovery, it is important to carry out the hardening procedures for the child.
Therapy of ascaridosis with folk remedies
Traditional methods of treatment of ascariasis are used mainly because of the high toxicity of drugs that are prescribed for this disease. However, do not forget that self-medication can lead to serious health complications, so you should always consult a doctor beforehand.
