The idea of having parasites in your body can be alarming, but many people carry them without knowing it. Here are 10 signs that may indicate a parasitic infection.
Parasites are microorganisms that live inside other organisms. Anyone can host them, and this is far more common than most people realize. Some common parasites that can invade the human body include pinworms, hookworms, Giardia, tapeworms, and Trichinella. Since parasites come in various shapes and sizes, they can cause a wide range of symptoms.
Intestinal parasites can inflame the gut lining and damage the intestinal walls, often causing chronic diarrhea. Toxic byproducts from these parasites may also lead to constipation, gas, bloating, nausea, and a burning sensation in the stomach. If you consume fiber-rich and alkaline foods daily yet still experience digestive issues, a parasite could be the culprit.
Parasites residing in the upper small intestine can cause inflammation and irritation, resulting in bloating and abdominal discomfort. They may also block the elimination of waste, leading to pain in the upper abdomen.
Itching around the anus is another common sign of parasitic infection. People with pinworms often feel irritation and itching in this area, particularly at night when female pinworms lay eggs. Persistent itching for more than two weeks should prompt a visit to a doctor.
Parasites consume essential nutrients, which can leave you feeling exhausted. Additionally, your body works harder to remove the toxins they produce, causing fatigue, low energy, and overall weakness.
Sudden changes in appetite—especially increased hunger—can be linked to parasites. Many people experience weight loss even as their appetite rises because the parasites consume a significant portion of nutrients, leaving the body feeling deprived.
Parasitic infections can also affect mood, causing depression, anxiety, and even visual hallucinations. These symptoms often coincide with digestive issues. The gut contains neurons and neurotransmitters (especially serotonin) crucial for nervous system health. Toxins released by intestinal parasites can harm these cells, triggering irritability, restlessness, mood swings, and depression.
Grinding your teeth at night could indicate parasites in your body. The stress and restlessness caused by toxins released by parasites often lead to this involuntary behavior.
Parasitic worms, including pinworms, can cause iron deficiency and anemia. By stealing vitamins and minerals such as iron from your food, parasites may deplete your body’s essential nutrients.
Intestinal parasites can trigger inflammation and skin issues such as red bumps, hives, eczema, and other sensitivities. The toxins they release may raise blood eosinophil levels, causing rashes, swelling, and skin lesions.
Certain parasites can invade soft tissues in muscles and joints, leading to inflammation and pain. This is often mistaken for arthritis. If persistent pain in muscles, joints, or other areas continues to worsen despite treatment, consult a physician.
