WORMS IN HUMAN BODY
May 1, 2011
Worms may be present in the bowels without causing much in the way of serious symptoms. However, some worms do cause severe symptoms and must be eliminated from the body. Among them are the hookworm (ancylostoma); the pin-worm (enterobius vermicularies); the roundworm (or ascaris); the whipworm (trichuris trichurea); the tapeworm, known under such names as the beef tapeworm, the broad tapeworm, the fish tapeworm and the pork tapeworm.By far the most common is the pinworm, also called the seat worm or thread worm. The eggs taken into the human body hatch in the small intestines, where the worms mature and mate. Females move on to the large bowel and develop the eggs. The males pass out of the body. The eggs may lodge in areas around the openings of the bowel, may get on the sleeping garments or bedclothes. They cause itching and scratching which may result in infection. In the control of pinworms, the utmost cleanliness is required. Several drugs are available which will quickly eliminate such worms, among them hexyl-resorcinol and other substances.The roundworms, exceeded in frequency only by the pinworms, live in the bowel and may develop to lengths of 6 to 15 inches. They hold themselves in the bowel by a sort of spring-like pressure. The female worm can discharge 200,000 eggs a day. This worm does not cause much in the way of serious symptoms, but can produce blocking of the bowel. They are controlled by giving cathartics and washing out the bowel, after which drugs are provided that destroy the worm and eliminate it.The hookworm can produce severe anemia. It penetrates the skin, producing the condition called ground itch. It then gets into the intestines by way of the blood. The doctor establishes the presence of the condition by examining the material from the bowel. Such remedies as hexylresorcinol, oil of chenopodium and tetrachlorethylene are used. All worm remedies are poisonous if administered wrongly or in excess amounts.The tapeworms live in the human intestine. There are thirty or forty different species. A complete tapeworm will measure one to fifteen feet long and contain as many as 2000 parts. The presence of these worms means serious loss of appetite, secondary anemia, loss of weight, and other serious symptoms.*39/318/5*
