Does eating pork infected with tapeworm have any effect?

Swine flu is an infectious disease transmitted through food, often caused by unsanitary eating habits. Pork infected with fluke or rice pig is at risk of disease when the meat is not cooked. So what are the risks of diseases when eating pork contaminated with fluke?

Swine flu, also known as rice swine disease, is an infectious disease caused by the larvae of the pork tapeworm. People get sick from eating contaminated food containing tapeworm larvae or eggs, undercooked infected pork, raw vegetables are one of the main causes of the disease.

Infected pork, or rice pork, is pork where the larvae of the tapeworm reside in the form of cysts in the pork. This larva usually parasitizes many muscles or movements of pigs such as the base of the tongue and the hamstrings. Recognizing fluke-infected pork by looking at the muscles that move a lot like the base of the tongue, the thigh muscles, if there is a fluke, there will be grains like sticky rice, if the meat is cut, it can cause the fluke larvae to come out.
Pork contains flukes that pose a risk to humans if the food is not cooked properly.

In case of eating raw or undercooked pork contaminated with tapeworms (rice pigs), when reaching the stomach, the tapeworm larvae will escape from the cyst and attach to the small intestine wall
Most larvae will develop into adult tapeworms Adult tapeworms grow and develop into budding, budding, and producing many new tapeworms, each with up to 50,000 eggs, they can parasitize in the intestines for many years. Symptoms when adult tapeworms: Often do not manifest clearly, may be abdominal pain, mild digestive disturbances, the main symptom is that the patient feels uncomfortable, restless, the tapeworms fall off by themselves in the stool. , tapeworms are characterized by small, flat, ivory-white segments like jackfruit fibers, flat heads, eggs can be seen in feces and this is a source of infection for the community. There are cases where tapeworm larvae in the small intestine penetrate into the blood and parasitize in skeletal muscles, brain, eyes, skin... Symptoms can be seen Skeletal muscle: The larvae can develop in any place. skeletal muscle in humans. May cause myositis causing symptoms such as fever, pseudomyalgia, muscle pain and swelling, which then progress to atrophy and fibrosis. Most cases are asymptomatic since the larvae die and are calcified. Brain: The presence of cysts in the brain is rare. There may be symptoms such as: Headache, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, memory loss, paralysis... Danger to life Eyes: The larvae of tapeworm parasites in some places in the eyes and eyes. causes symptoms such as vision loss, retinal edema, hemorrhage... Skin: Subcutaneous cyst in the form of nodules, mobile, can cause pain. Tapeworm larvae die at 75 degrees Celsius within 5 minutes or 100 degrees Celsius within 2 minutes, so when the pork is infected with the fluke, it is no longer capable of causing tapeworm disease.

Do not eat raw foods such as pork, spring rolls, rare pork, unhygienic raw vegetables. Management of fresh faeces, especially in areas where there are large numbers of adult tapeworm infections in the gastrointestinal tract. People with adult swine flu in the intestine must be treated, not defecated indiscriminately. Deworming every 6 months. Infected pork, if not cooked, is a source of risk for human tapeworm disease. When entering the body, tapeworm larvae can cause diseases in the gastrointestinal tract or in other organs such as eyes, skeletal muscles, skin, and more dangerously the brain. However, if pork infected with fluke is cooked, there is no risk of disease, so proactively prevent disease by eating cooked food and drinking boiling water.
