How do I know if I have schistosomiasis?

When symptoms such as rash, fever, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fatigue, and liver discomfort appear, you should be vigilant. However, there are also a higher number of people with schistosomiasis infection who do not develop these symptoms or do not develop them immediately. If you suspect that you are infected with schistosomiasis, you should immediately go to your local schistosomiasis control station for examination, or take the initiative to get tested when the blood prevention team goes to the countryside to check for the disease.

There are many ways to check for schistosomiasis, including stool tests, blood tests, and rectal biopsies. At present, ultrasound technology is often used in combination with stool examination and immunodiagnosis to check whether the liver and spleen are enlarged, whether there are sonographic features of schistosomiasis cirrhosis, and the degree of cirrhosis to determine the disease. In order to detect schistosomiasis early and get it in time without delaying the disease, everyone should be proactive in schistosomiasis testing.

Go to the hospital, ahh I don't know how much it costs, which ones to check, which ones are too professional, and I would like to know too much.

Hello, bloodsucking insects are generally on the surface of the body, you can see them, and schistosomes will enter the body, if your family also uses this pool to wash without infection with schistosomiasis or bloodsucking worms, then you can basically rule it out. The little red dot on the hand may be allergic to something in the pool or something.

Schistosomiasis has existed in China for at least 2,100 years.

History and current situation of schistosomiasis in China:

Schistosomiasis, commonly known as "pot-bellied disease", is an infectious disease and parasitic disease caused by the infection of humans or mammals such as cattle, sheep, and pigs with schistosomiasis. Schistosomiasis is endemic in 76 countries and regions around the world, and 19 species of schistosomiasis infect humans. Schistosoma japonicum, which is endemic in China, Japan, the Philippines, and Indonesia in Asia, is called Schistosoma japonicum because it was first discovered in Japan by the Japanese.

Only Schistosoma japonicum, referred to as Schistosomiasis, is endemic in China.

The history of schistosomiasis epidemics in China can be traced back to 2000 years ago. In the 70s of the last century, Schistosomiasis eggs were found in ancient corpses (livers and intestines) of the Western Han Dynasty excavated in Jiangling, Hubei Province and Changsha, Hunan Province, respectively, confirming that the history of schistosomiasis in China has been at least 2,100 years old.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, from 1956 to 1957, China carried out a comprehensive survey and pilot work on the prevention and control of schistosomiasis. After more than 50 years of effective control, schistosomiasis has been eliminated or controlled in most endemic areas in China.

However, schistosomiasis, which was called the "plague god" by the first poem, made a comeback quietly. In the second half of 2003, Gao Qiang, executive vice minister of the Ministry of Health, reported to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress on the current situation of prevention and control of major infectious diseases, saying that there are currently schistosomiasis outbreaks in 427 counties (cities and districts) across the country, with a threatened population of about 65 million people and 810,000 patients. Among them, 110 counties (cities and districts) in 7 provinces, including Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, are the main endemic areas.

The rivers and lakes of Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake, and some mountainous areas of Sichuan and Yunnan are severely affected areas.

The epidemic of schistosomiasis is consistent with the geographical distribution of snails. According to the statistics of relevant departments, from 2001 to 2002, the area of newly discovered snails in the country increased from 5.9 million square meters to 11.51 million square meters. At present, the distribution area of snails in the country has reached 2.22 million hectares, and there are more than 12 million cases of schistosomiasis.

The most serious schistosomiasis epidemic in Yueyang, Hunan Province and Jingzhou, Hubei Province, is the most serious in China.

Schistosomiasis is a chronic parasitic disease caused by Schistosoma schizosomes, which is mainly endemic in 73 countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, affecting about 200 million people. There are two main types of schistosomiasis, one is intestinal schistosomiasis, which is mainly caused by Schistosoma mansoni and Schistosoma japonicum; The other is urinary schistosomiasis, which is caused by Schistosoma haematoidosis. The main epidemic in our country is Japanese schistosomiasis.
