false color electron micrograph of a plasmodium sporozoite specialty infectious disease a parasitic disease also known as parasitosis is an infectious disease caused by parasites 1 parasites are organisms which derive sustenance from its host while causing it harm 2 the study of parasites and parasitic diseases is known as parasitology 3 medical parasitology is concerned with three major groups of parasites parasitic protozoa helminths and parasitic arthropods 2 parasitic diseases are thus considered those diseases that are caused by pathogens belonging taxonomically to either the animal kingdom or the protozoan kingdom 4 terminology edit although organisms such as bacteria function as parasites the usage of the term parasitic disease is usually more restricted the three main types of organisms causing these conditions are protozoa causing protozoan infection helminths helminthiasis and ectoparasites 5 protozoa and helminths are usually endoparasites usually living inside the body of the host while ectoparasites usually live on the surface of the host protozoa are single celled microscopic organisms that belong to the kingdom protista helminths on the other hand are macroscopic multicellular organisms that belong to the kingdom animalia protozoans obtain their required nutrients through pinocytosis and phagocytosis helminths of class cestoidea and trematoda absorb nutrients whereas nematodes obtain needed nourishment through ingestion 4 occasionally the definition of parasitic disease is restricted to diseases due to endoparasites 6 some parasitic diseases can occur in either an acute or chronic form the acute form is characterized by quicker and often more severe onset of symptoms the chronic form is typically less severe but is life long some parasites that cause chronic and acute manifestations in their respective diseases are trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense acute trypanosoma brucei gambiense chronic trypanosoma cruzi clonorchis sinensis paragonimus westermani transmission edit see also list of human parasitic diseases infection edit mammals can get parasites from contaminated food or water bug bites sexual contact 7 or contact with animals some ways in which people may acquire parasitic infections are walking barefoot inadequate disposal of feces lack of hygiene close contact with someone carrying specific parasites and eating undercooked foods unwashed fruits and vegetables or foods from contaminated regions citation needed only at specific stages in a parasites life is it infectious 8 contact with non infective stages will not lead to infection many parasites utilize vectors to infect hosts 9 vectors are vessels for the parasite and help the parasite infect its next host some examples of parasitic diseases that use vectors are malaria and leishmaniasis at risk groups edit many parasitic diseases are concentrated in specific areas of the globe majority of these diseases are prevalent along the equator due to the warm temperatures citation needed therefore people located in these areas are at greater risk of contracting the disease causing parasites parasitic diseases are far more common among marginalized groups 10 lack of indoor bathrooms and access to clean drinking water are only some of the risk factors faced 11 additionally in the united states being hispanic or african american have shown to be risk factors for specific parasitic diseases 12 morbidity edit symptoms edit parasitic diseases can manifest in many different symptoms with some being asymptomatic many of the symptoms of parasitic diseases are common among other ailments such as food poisoning or the flu this can cause correct diagnoses to take a while the target organ s of the parasite typically dictates the symptoms experienced general edit source 13 fever ulcers lesions death headache malaise anemia muscle pain gastrointestinal tract edit source 14 dysentery constipation abdominal pain vomiting nausea bloating anorexia lungs edit source 15 cough blood in sputum lesions skin edit source 16 local inflammation local dermatitis hives itching rash treatment edit diagnosis edit different parasitic diseases require different diagnostic methods because different parasites have different diagnostic stages testing routes will often be determined by symptoms testing edit source 17 stool test blood test colonoscopy endoscopy x ray mri ct scan therapies edit parasitic infections can usually be treated with antiparasitic drugs citation needed the use of viruses to treat infections caused by protozoa
