"As I got older, I started to get headaches. Then the condition got worse when he suddenly became paralyzed and had a crooked mouth. At that time, I thought I had a stroke," the male patient shared.

When they went to the hospital for examination and chupmed an X-ray, the doctors discovered that there were countless collapsed in his brain. The cause was determined to be unsafe eating habits, especially spring rolls, meatballs, fish and raw vegetables.

Risk of kinhiting and seizures even after treatment

Talking with Lao Dong reporter, Dr. Tran Huy Tho - Deputy Director of Dang Van Ngu Hospital - said that recently, the hospital has received more and more cases of patients infected with parasites, including cerebral palsy. alarmingly, most patients are hospitalized when their disease is at a late stage, with many cysts forming, causing serious damage to the central nervous system.

One of the most dangerous and persistent sequelae of encephalitis is that even after treatment, the encephalitis do not disappear completely but will become calcified, forming "lime deposits" in the brain. These limestone nodules last forever and can become stimulating holes, causing seizures and epidemics in the future.

"When there are acquired scars on the brain, if the patient is working stressed, un sleepy, or using stimulants such as alcohol, beer, coffee, etc., the risk of recurrent seizures is very high," Dr. Tho warned.

Therefore, health experts recommend that people change their eating habits, absolutely comply with the principle of "eat cooked, drink boiled". It is necessary to give up dishes with high potential risks such as blood pudding, spring rolls, rare pork, raw fish salad, and unwashed raw vegetables.

Regularly exfoliating and keeping food hygienic is the simplest but most effective measure to prevent the risk of parasitic infections and protect long-term health.
