They discover parasite eggs in the brain of an Indian girl

GURGAON.- In India, the parents of an 8-year-old girl were terrified to learn that the child, who was suffering from severe headaches and epileptic fits during six months, had 100 tapeworm eggs in her brain.

According to India Today, by scanning their brains, doctors at a hospital discovered 100 cysts that were actually eggs of the parasite known as tapeworm and had migrated from their stomachs. The existence of these cysts has caused inflammation in his brain, as well as breathing and walking problems. The miner was hospitalized and almost unconscious, say the specialists.

Dr. Praveen Gupta pointed out that this disease is caused by the consumption of poorly washed fruits and vegetables, as well as undercooked meat infected with pork tapeworm. "When eggs reach the brain through the nervous system, they cause neurocysticercosis, characterized by severe headaches, epileptic seizures and confusion."

Fortunately, the treatment helped the girl recover and she was able to return to school.
