A shocking new report has highlighted that a fun journey in a park with your friends or family can leave you blind. Soil tests from parks in Dublin, Ireland have shown that many parks of entrances are the most contaminated with roundworms, which can make you really sick.
Roundworms are small organisms that can live in your intestines – part of your digestive system. They are also found in cats, dogs and foxes, and eggs from there can end in the soil, where they lay millions of subtle eggs in the intestines of animals, which are expelled when animals are victims. If you touch it, and then your mouth or food without washing your hands, you can hold the parasite.
They can be harmful and can cause many problems including abdominal pain, fever and diarrhea. In rare cases, roundworms also cause high fever, skin rashes, pneumonia and even vision loss.
In the study published in the journal Plos, Scientists from Trinity College Dublin collected samples from 12 parks in Dublin and tested them for roundworm eggs, also known as toxocaras. He focused on areas such as entrance, playgrounds, playgrounds and seating areas, to see that contamination was the most.
While nine parks conducted a positive test for roundworm eggs, almost all of them were viable, with the ability to be caused by infection. Scientists said that most of the eggs were found at the entrances of the park – mostly because many dogs go to the gates as soon as they reach the gates. The second most contaminated places were the playgrounds, even though most of the dogs were closed to keep out.
The tests confirmed that instead of dogs, cats or foxes, these fence-offs were primary criminals in the playgrounds.
The lead author of the study said that it was common in these areas to see dog owners with puppies, suggesting that puppies, especially, were responsible for contamination. He wrote, “Many dog-flying deficiency interventions after implementation are not evaluated for their effectiveness, so such an assessment should be made in any plan in the future,” he wrote.
How can you get infected with the roundworm?
According to doctors, the path in the human body depends on the type of roundworm. Many of these parasites enter the body with the mouth. The infection is often caused by touching the poop or soil that is infected with eggs and does not wash hands. The pinworm infection arises from touching the eggs placed near the opening of the buttocks.
You can accidentally lay roundworm eggs by preparing food or touching the soil contaminated. The egg is then inside your body. For other roundworms, eggs may hide in food eating in food. And in some cases, larvae can enter the body directly through your skin.
Even if they enter, most roundworms are eliminated in your intestines, causing infection or disease.
