Giardia is a common invasive pathology that appears due to the parasitation of the simplest flavored flags. They are localized in the intestine, where they breed, inflicting the damage to the entire body, breaking hemodynamics. Often, lamblias are randomly discovered when conducting laboratory tests. But how to avoid deterioration of the state? In this article, consider which symptoms may indicate the presence of a pathological process.
What happens in the body or "Circle of Giardia in Nature"
Giardia can exist in two forms:
- cysta shape When Giardia is stationary and resistant to the effects of the external environment;
- form of vegetationcharacterized by moving parasites.
Cystrics fall into the human body. In the intestine they begin to share, transforming into a new form of vegetation. Next, the parasites lead their livelihoods, providing all their needs at the expense of the owner. The activity of their division is only 20 minutes. Therefore, parasites are rapidly filled with a small intestine mucous membrane, making her way further into all gastrointestinal departments. 9-22 days after Giardia fall into the human body, the patient becomes a carrier of infection, since the cysts formed in the intestine go out with feces outside.
Cysts can maintain their viability in an external environment of about 18 days. If there is a wet environment, this term increases significantly. These parasites are not afraid of chlorine treatments, but with a dry, hot climate dies.
What symptoms may appear with giardiasis
Medical statistics show that 65% of patients with giardiasis do not have pronounced symptoms. But filling the mucous gastrointestinal tract, Giardia actively conduct their livelihoods, and their decay products are gradually absorbed into the blood, leading to the sensitization of the body. The brightest symptom of the presence of Giardia is manifestation of chronic allergies. Also characteristic of this pathology can be called dysbacteriosis, dyskinesia of biliary tract, problems with the chair.
Pronounced symptoms of giardiasis during exacerbations
Usually, pronounced symptoms appear in cases where massive invasion is present or the work of the immune system is broken. In exacerbation, the pronounced symptoms of the presence of giardia in the body of an adult belong:
- lack of appetite;
- nausea;
- flatulence;
- frequent gas separation;
- reduction of mass;
- pain in the aircraft zone;
- diarrhea possible;
- increases salivation;
- there are skin rashes.
Usually exacerbations last 5-7 days. If there is no appropriate treatment, the giardias goes into a chronic stage.
Symptoms of the chronic stage of giardiasis
If the moment is missed and the disease flows into a chronic form, then the following symptoms appear:
- Dysfunction of digestive organs, accompanied by chalk problems (diarrhea, constipation), frequent yarms in the abdomen.
- General violation of geodynamics, which manifests itself: headaches, drowsiness, reduced disability, increased irritability.
- Turns yellow. Originally acquires the justy face, neck, belly, skin folds.
- Frequent skin rashes. These can be both allergic reactions and the manifestation of dermatitis with frequent relapses. In this case, the reaction in the treatment of allergies or dermatitis is not observed.
- Follicular keratosis for which swelling on the skin is characteristic. It is localized on the shoulders and with time are covered with a rough crust, which peels.
A long course of the disease in an adult causes oppression of immunity and is expressed by the following symptoms of intoxication:
- inflammation of lymph nodes;
- increase almonds;
- increase body temperature to subfebrile marks.
In adults, giardiasis is very often masked for diseases of the gastrointestinal organs, so diagnose the presence of parasites on time is so important.
