Toxoplasmosis is a fairly common disease resulting from human infection with parasites. In some countries, the number of cases is about 90%. This insidious disease in most cases does not manifest itself at all, but sometimes it proceeds in a rather acute form. In any case, parasites should be disposed of. Well proven treatment of toxoplasmosis with folk remedies. Doctors advise using complex treatment, which gives excellent results and quick effect.
Causes of Toxoplasmosis
To date, the sources of human infection have been fairly accurately established. The disease occurs after contact with animals, eating contaminated meat, from insect bites and untreated wounds.
This disease is especially dangerous for pregnant women. Parasites easily penetrate the placenta and make their "adjustments" to the further development of the fetus. Birth defects such as cleft lip, cleft palate, blindness and deafness in newborns are very often associated with infection of the mother before or during pregnancy. Sometimes malformations become incompatible with life and the fetus dies in the first stages of pregnancy. A good result often brings treatment with folk remedies.
Symptoms of Toxoplasmosis
The disease proceeds both in acute and in chronic form. In the first case, a person has the following symptoms:
- Often a headache.
- A high body temperature appears, which is difficult to bring down.
- Nausea and vomiting.
- Joint aches and muscle pain as with viral diseases.
- The patient has enlarged lymph nodes.
In the acute form of the disease, only together with medical preparations can treatment with folk remedies be used. Symptoms of toxoplasmosis in humans are also constant weakness and visual impairment. Chronic toxoplasmosis is characterized by the absence of obvious symptoms. Patients may experience headache, swollen lymph nodes, and weakness. As a rule, fever, nausea and vomiting are not observed.
Disease treatment
In order to get rid of toxoplasmosis, immunomodulating and hyposensitizing drugs are used. In addition, the complex treatment should include vitamins, antibiotics, Lidase injections, Cerebrolysin and other similar drugs. Despite the danger of the disease, pregnant women sometimes manage to save the baby. After analysis of the ultrasound, which assesses the condition of the fetus and the degree of its defeat, the doctor decides whether to continue the pregnancy or, conversely, to terminate it.
How to protect yourself from toxoplasmosis
Since this disease most often comes from pets, first of all, attention should be paid to pets. However, cats that do not visit the street, in principle, are not carriers of parasites. It is highly undesirable to feed your pet raw meat. The best option would be food with vitamin supplements or a small amount of boiled beef and chicken. If symptoms of toxoplasmosis in a person appear, treatment with alternative methods should be transgressed immediately.
As soon as a pregnant woman appears in the house, the owners, because of fear of toxoplasmosis, try to get rid of the animals that have lived with them for many years. Such a panic is not unfounded, since the baby’s health is above all for the parents. Nevertheless, such radical decisions can be avoided by checking the animal for parasites. And also women often have good immunity, which can resist this disease.
Preventive measures
This rather dangerous disease is easier to prevent than to cure. In order not to become infected with parasites, the following rules should be followed:
- When working with organic fertilizers, gloves and replaceable clothing should be worn. After all the work is completed, the clothes are washed, and disposable gloves are thrown away.
- Do not eat raw eggs, as they may contain parasites. The same goes for raw meat. The most “harmful” meat is in pigs and rams.
- Any meat should be well cooked.
- Fruits and vegetables may also contain parasites, so they are washed thoroughly under running water before eating.
Parasites often live in the ground and in the sand. Be sure to accustom the child after playing on the streets to wash his hands and handle minor scratches with hydrogen peroxide.
