Protozoal Diseases: causes, symptoms and treatment

Protozoal diseases are infections that are of protozoa type. This group includes the dangerous diseases: amebiasis, malaria, trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis.



Diseases caused by protozoa are ranging from benign to life-threatening. Almost all people have micro-organisms in their body, but they do not always cause disease.

Various bacteria, that are protozoa do not have a generic communication with each other, namely due to external similarities.

Just recall some human diseases such as amoebic dysentery, malaria, coccidiosis, diarrhea (diarrhea), keratitis, enteritis, African sleeping sickness, toxoplasmosis, pneumonia, vaginitis, urethritis.

Protozoa: the life cycle

Microbe enters the body from the source: water, soil, food, from animals or other humans.Microbe, penetrating into the body of the new owner, begins to multiply ther, creating a lot of new parasites.Microbes lay eggs in the body.

The most dangerous and common protozoal diseases

Malaria is a deadly disease and is transmitted to humans by the female mosquito. Once the infection gets into the human body, it just starts to mature into blood cells and liver. Symptoms of the disease are excessive sweating and fever with chills.A group of diseases called "amebiasis" amoebic dysentery include general and amebic abscess of the lungs, spleen, liver, and skin. Characteristic features of the disease are diarrhea with mucus and blood, abdominal pain, accompanied by convulsions. If it is left untreated, it can cause abscesses in various parts of the body and ulcers in the colon.African trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness). Pathogen is simple, carried by tsetse flies.
