Intestinal flaps

Lamblia intestinalis (d.f. Lamblia) or Giardia intestinalis is a protozoan parasite that causes the disease giardiasis. This is one of the most common diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and can be caused by several types of parasites.

Lamblia intestinalis has an oval shape and a size of about 8-14 micrometers. It has two nuclei and four flagella. The parasite can live in a person's intestines, but it usually does not cause symptoms. However, if the number of parasites becomes too large, they can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and weight loss.

Giardiasis is one of the most common causes of diarrhea in the world. It can occur in people of all ages and social groups. Infection usually occurs through contaminated water or food.

Antibiotics are used to treat giardiasis. However, sometimes treatment may be ineffective or complicated by side effects. In such cases, a change in antibiotics or additional treatment may be required.

Prevention of giardiasis involves practicing good hygiene: washing your hands before eating, drinking only boiled water and avoiding eating raw food. It is also important to undergo regular medical examinations and monitor your health.

In conclusion, Lamblia intestinalis is one of the most common parasites that causes giardiasis, a disease that can present with a variety of symptoms and require complex treatment. Good hygiene, regular medical examinations and proper treatment can help prevent infection and improve your quality of life.

Giardiasis, caused by Giardia, is widespread and has now become one of the most pressing problems of intestinal infectious pathology. Giardia is a protozoan, localized in the upper parts of the human small intestine, feeding on sugars and can even accidentally ingest bacteria. This parasite receives the same energy substances as our body. Infection occurs when a person consumes food or water containing cysts, that is, cells of mature parasitic individuals. Symptoms of giardiasis can persist for many years.
