The most common symptom of intestinal parasites is abdominal pain, which is usually accompanied by moderate or severe diarrhea. Those who suffer from an Inflammatory Bowel Disease or Irritable Bowel Syndrome are at a higher risk of having intestinal parasites. Inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome sufferers have a chaotic intestinal system, an environment where parasites thrive. The effects from these intestinal parasites can have a wide range of acute and chronic effects. Intestinal parasite infections may include:
- Abdominal pain, may lead to cramps
- Autoimmune disease
- Fatigue
- Constipation
- Appetite loss
- Gastro and fever
- Diarrhea and bloody stools
Blastocystis hominis is the most common protozoal parasite. It can sometimes be missed along with dientamoeba fragilis that both go undetected due to poor laboratory techniques.
