Helminth carriage

Helminth carriage is an infestation by helminths that occurs without clinical signs of disease.

Helminths are parasitic worms that can infect humans and animals. Among them there are flukes, tapeworms, roundworms, etc. Infection with helminths occurs through contact with soil, water or food products containing helminth eggs.

With helminthiasis, a person usually develops symptoms - abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, allergies. However, in some cases, parasites can remain in the body for a long time without causing any symptoms. This condition is called helminth carriage.

Helminth carriers are a source of spread of helminthiasis. Helminth eggs are released from their bodies in feces and other secretions and can infect other people. Therefore, it is important to promptly identify such patients and deworm them to interrupt the chain of infection. Diagnosis of helminth carriage is carried out using laboratory methods - scatological examination, etc.

Thus, helminth carriage poses an epidemic danger. Identification and treatment of such asymptomatic carriers of helminths is important for the prevention of invasive diseases.
