How Humans Get Infected
Contaminated Food and Water: Ingesting microscopic parasite eggs or larvae through contaminated water sources or produce.
Contaminated Soil: Walking barefoot on soil contaminated with larvae, which can then burrow through the skin.
Insect Bites: Mosquitoes and other biting insects can transmit parasites like Plasmodium.
Contact with Infected Animals: Zoonotic parasites can spread from animals to humans through contact with contaminated f***s or soil.
Contact with Infected Surfaces: Touching surfaces like bed linens or pet fur that have parasite eggs on them.

Human parasites are animals that live on or inside the human body, deriving nutrients from their host and potentially causing harm. They are categorized as endoparasites (living inside the body, like worms and protozoa) or ectoparasites (living on the skin, like lice and ticks). Examples include protozoa (e.g., Plasmodium causing malaria), helminths (worms like tapeworms and roundworms), and ectoparasites (like fleas, lice, and mites).

Types of Parasites in Stool:
Roundworms (Ascaris): Large, white worms that can be seen in the stool.
Pinworms (Enterobius vermicularis): Tiny, white worms that are usually visible around the a**s at night.
Tapeworms (Taenia): Flat, segmented worms that can grow to be several feet long.
Giardia: A microscopic parasite that causes diarrhea and abdominal pain.
Cryptosporidium: Another microscopic parasite that causes diarrhea and vomiting.
Hookworms: Small, blood-sucking worms that can cause anemia and intestinal pain.

Symptoms of human parasites range from none at all to severe, but commonly include unexplained digestive issues like abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss, as well as fatigue, muscle and joint pain, and anemia. Visible signs can include finding worm segments in stool or a red, itchy skin rash. Untreated infections can lead to serious complications like dehydration, malnutrition, bowel obstruction, and even organ damage.
