Enterobiasis is one of the most common diseases that cause pinworms, and many pediatricians say it now "flash". Attribute this to the fact that our children went in September, schools and kindergartens, where the risk of catching these parasites maximum, because the number of kids, as a rule, does not meet prescribed standards. And that's just up until now, helminths was able to "grow" and gain the ability to lay eggs. And ignore the parasites cannot - they cause decreased immunity of the child, retarded development, and sometimes intestinal obstruction or blockage of the bile duct. How to protect your baby from this insidious scourge, we talked with Lydia Petrenko, head of the Department of the Clinic and diagnostics" IPOG of medical Sciences of Ukraine.Know your enemy in the face
Pinworms are parasites that are often found in the intestines of children aged 2 to 14 years, but most of all they are injuring children 4-6 years old. This "worm" long up to 1 cm, which are painted white and have a pointed "booty". Despite its minimal size, these parasites are very difficult to destroy. They are very resistant to many disinfectants. Even after getting pinworms from the intestines into the environment or water, they are about a month still alive and dangerous. And all this time you and your child can "wear" these pests under nails, clothing, lingerie and get infected again and again.
Be careful parents
Very often this disease occurs without any particular symptoms, but monitor the health and behavior of the parents will not be difficult to suspect "worms". Look to your child: how it behaves in the evening and quietly whether he sleeps at night? From 23 o'clock, when the bowel muscles relax, the female crawls out and lays around the anus eggs. It causes skin irritation, and the baby starts to comb the ass, and very restless sleep. Another common symptom of pinworm - poor appetite. You can't confuse it with "chronic" lack of desire to eat the baby, but babies are very much. We are talking about a sudden failure of the child to eat even earlier meals and "thrust" to the sweet, which until now has not been. In addition, children infected with helminths bother periodic aching pain in the abdomen (when this kid shows on the region of the navel), headaches, night coughing and frequent allergic reactions. Also the baby appears characteristic circles under his eyes, he tired quickly and failing in school.
Tested
If you notice the child has any of the symptoms listed below - be sure to take a stool sample to the helminthes or scraping. Remember that Kale eggs could not be just, and to put the correct diagnosis, it is necessary to take the material at least three times. It is much easier to identify the parasite in the scraping with the folds around the anus. This procedure makes laboratory physicians, in the morning, to the toilet, pidmyvannya and soul. Such manipulation you need to do for the whole family, because adults can also be carriers of enterobiasis. In addition, you can take a blood test and show the level of eosinophils in it, the improvement which indicates parasites. But the most reliable method - computer diagnostics, which captures tiny bio-resonance oscillations of about 20 different species of helminths.
Enjoy a treatment
If your child has a set of bad habits (eating and obsesive nails, thumb sucking, picks his nose and eats pencils and pens) - your task is to pay decent attention to the fight against helminths. And pharmacies sold a lot of drugs from helminthiasis, but even the most modern medicine will not give you full guarantee that the recovery will come. Because the worms are everywhere and you can re-infected! In addition, most of the drugs are toxic to the child's body, so assign them can only be a doctor. Modern drugs on the basis of Pyrantel accept twice with an interval of two weeks. The dose for each family member must calculate doctor. Prevention these drugs are prescribed twice a year.
