What should I do if I accidentally eat pork tapeworm eggs?

Tapeworms don't develop into adults in pigs, do they? Moreover, tapeworms are parasitic in the intestines of animals, how can there be body segments mixed into the meat? Although it is unlikely to be tapeworms, and the so-called "tapeworm eggs" are unlikely to infect people (ham sausages are treated at high temperatures), I still think it is better to go to the hospital for a check-up.

The box of ham sausages was also thrown away.

If you don't eat rice pork, but just eat the eggs by mistake, you will be a secondary host (you will only develop into cysticerci and will not develop into an adult Taenia solium worm).

At this time, if the eggs rupture in the small intestine, the hexagocycci will escape, burrow into the intestinal wall, and develop into cysticerci through blood circulation throughout the body, which will also cause various cysticerci pathogens.

However, because cysticerci are more serious than adults (adults only parasitize the intestines), some diseases caused by cysticerci have a longer onset time, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up, just in case.

There shouldn't be any problems.

Pork tapeworm eggs cannot survive at that acidity in the human body.

Actually, it's not in the belly of a pig.

It's inside its flesh.

So you can rest assured (it just doesn't feel good).

No, it's the arterial vessels of pigs.

T. solium. It's so rare that you have to go to a medical lab to see a specimen now. It's section by section, and it's not going to be continuous like this.

The adult worms of T. solium are milky white, flattened like a belt, chain-like, thin, slightly transparent, about 2 4 m long, the front end is thin, and the posterior is flattened. The number of proglottids on the chain body is about 700 1000, and the juvenile segments near the neck, the proglottids are short and wide; The central node is nearly square, and the terminal node is rectangular. Each segment has a genital orifice on the side of the segment, which is regularly distributed on both sides of the chain.

Judging from the **, this is the pig's trotter part, which is obviously the veins in the pig's trotters, not pork tapeworms, so you don't have to scare yourself.

1. Pork tapeworms.

Cook it to death. 2. Cook at a temperature of 80 or more to avoid infection. Pork parasitism is pork tapeworm, often parasitic in the muscles of pigs, people eat pork containing tapeworm cysticercia, will develop into adult worms in the small intestine of the human body, and excrete pregnancy nodes (proglottids that tapeworms produce eggs) or eggs with feces; When a person accidentally ingests tapeworm eggs, they can develop into cysticerci in the human body and transfer to the whole body, causing cysticercosis, causing blindness or inducing epilepsy.

In principle, it is not suitable for consumption.

Most likely pork tapeworms. This kind of rice pork is rare now, I don't know the meat you buy in **, it's better to buy it in a regular supermarket in the future.

If the meat is cooked, the eggs will be dead and warped, and there will be no problem with crumbling.

Live eggs usually hatch in the small intestine to grow into adult worms, and then lay eggs, accompanied by proglottids that fall off with the stool of the tarpi ridge. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to check if the poop is oozing for this white proglottid. Wash your hands carefully after using the toilet.

**:** There are many types of drugs for taeniasis, and in the past, cotton horse oil and atipine were used, which have been eliminated due to strong toxicity. There are more paromomycin***, and the efficacy of mebendazole is poor, so it is rarely used.

1 Praziquantel: Praziquantel can increase the permeability of the tapeworm body membrane to calcium ions, causing extreme contracture and paralysis of the worm muscle. It mainly acts on the epidermis of the neck of tapeworms, where vacuoles appear, which then burst and allow tapeworms to be excreted from the feces with intestinal peristalsis.

2 Thiobis-dichlorophenol (obeta): This medicine is for beef. Pork tapeworms have a good deworming effect.

3 Niclosamide (chlorinate): This drug can inhibit the oxidative phosphorylation of tapeworm mitochondria.

The best way to do this is to take anthelmintic drugs to degenerate and kill the cysticercia.

The real parasitism of pork is the pork tapeworm, which often parasitizes the muscles of pigs. If a person eats pork that contains tapeworm cysticerci in the human body, they develop into adult worms in the small intestine and excrete proglottids (proglottids where tapeworms produce eggs) or eggs in their stool.

When a person accidentally ingests tapeworm eggs, they can develop into cysticerci in the human body and transfer to the whole body, causing cysticercosis, causing blindness or inducing epilepsy. Tibetans, Bai and other ethnic minorities who have a tradition of eating raw pork are even more high-risk groups.

To avoid cysticercosis, be careful when buying "rice pork", i.e. pork with cysticerci parasites. When you buy, you must take a closer look, "rice pork" is generally sac-shaped, that is, there are sacs the size of rice grains or soybeans in fatty or lean meat. In addition, try not to eat pork from free-range pigs in rural areas, which has a relatively high chance of infection, and be careful with pork that is too cheap.

From a biological point of view, most of the parasites and microorganisms can be inactivated after high temperature treatment, and they can generally be cooked at a temperature of more than 80 degrees to avoid infection.

It is useless to go to the regular supermarket to buy meat, today is in Kunming Zidu "Carrefour" to buy this kind of meat, found after returning it, the key is that although there is a "qualified" certificate, but under the premise of "money", I don't know whether this "qualified" certificate plays a role in protecting health, it is doubtful.

This is the former "rice pork", and I rushed to the hospital for examination, because this kind of parasite attaches to the intestinal wall to absorb human nutrition.

It takes about 3 months to develop into an adult worm in the human body, and it is recommended to take praziquantel**.
