WHAT DOES TRICHURIASIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

trichuriasis

Trichuriasis

Trichuriasis also known as whipworm infection is an infection by the parasitic worm Trichuris trichiura.[1] If infection is only with a few worms, there are often no symptoms.[2] In those who are infected with many worms, there may be abdominal pain, tiredness and diarrhea.[2] The diarrhea sometimes contains blood.[2] Infections in children may cause poor intellectual and physical development.[2] Low red blood cell levels may occur due to loss of blood.[1] The disease is spread by people eating food or water that contains the eggs of these worms.[2] The eggs are in the feces of people infected with the worms and the disease is most common in areas of the world where human feces are used as fertilizer.[1] The worms live in the large bowel and are about four centimetres in length.[1] Whipworm is diagnosed by seeing the eggs when examining the stool with a microscope.[3] Eggs are barrel-shaped.[4] Prevention is by properly cooking food and hand washing before cooking.[5] Other measures include improving access to toilets[5] and clean water.
