Lamblias in the liver and intestines

In this article, we will talk about some parasites that can live in the human body. In general, it is worth noting that the body of any creature can contain a huge number of uninvited guests, causing some discomfort or being harmless (or even useful). Surprisingly, even adults become carriers of all kinds of parasites simply because they do not wash their hands in time.

What is lambliasis?

Giardiasis is a disease caused by lamblia, affecting the intestines, as well as the liver. Especially rare it does not count. It is not always lamblia in the liver or intestines that can cause some discomfort, which means that many people are their carriers without even suspecting it. Most lamblias live in the bodies of children (forty per cent infected), but in adults it is much more difficult to find them (about ten per cent of all currently living are infected).

Giardia can exist in two forms: the first - this form is vegetative, and the second - spore. In the vegetative form they most often settle in the small intestine (in its upper parts). There, they eat foods that are formed during the breakdown of food. When entering the large intestine, they pass into the spore form and become so-called cysts. These cysts are excreted from the body along with feces. In damp conditions and in coolness they are able to live up to seventy days.

The carrier and source of infection is the person himself. Especially lamblias are distributed in those places where sanitary and hygienic conditions leave much to be desired. The infection itself occurs through food, water, objects, to which the infected person touched. Often carriers are those who do not like to wash their hands. Lamblias in the liver and large intestine proliferate very quickly. It has already been said that they can not cause any inconvenience, but still they can cause big problems. The diagnosis, as a rule, puts the doctor after the results of the necessary tests are received.

Lamblias in the liver: symptoms

Giardiasis can be acute or chronic. Acute are most often affected by children. It is characterized by diarrhea, fever, and weakness. As a rule, all symptoms disappear about a week later.

Chronic giardiasis is much more complicated and more insidious. His symptoms are:

- constant fatigue;

- Insomnia, which can not be overcome;

- a complete lack of appetite;

- increased irritability;

- Pain in the head;

- pale appearance.

The skin of the neck and abdomen can sometimes have an unhealthy color, and also dry and wrinkle. They can also start to dry their lips. Lamblias in the liver cause discomfort in its area, and can also cause it to increase in size. In the event that the liver has been severely damaged by them, toxins cease to be excreted from the body, and a person begins to feel worse and worse every day.

Ljamblii in a liver seldom appear without ljamblij in an intestine (all together and is a lambliasis). Parasites in the colon lead to the fact that a person begins to suffer from loose stools, flatulence, constipation and other unpleasant symptoms.

Treatment of Giardiasis

Ljamblii in the liver, the treatment of which differs little from the treatment of lamblia in the intestine, since in both cases phytotherapy or special folk remedies can be used, it is not particularly difficult to destroy. Often, different types of treatment combine.

Garlic was always a good remedy for any parasite. Specifically, from lamblia, you can advise the following recipe: take twenty grams of garlic and a horse radish. First, stir the horseradish and mix it with chopped garlic. All this pour half a liter of vodka and insist for ten days. This tool is effective, and besides it is also time-tested.
