The Cyclus of Malaria

Malaria is dominant in hot and luscious vegetation areas, especially those that are deemed tropical. This is why many people who venture into rainforests and jungles find that they are encouraged to take protection to not contact this disease that is spread through protozoan parasites.

These parasites are usually transferred to people through the bite of a mosquito. When the mosquito bites the person, they are injecting the parasite into the person, which eventually hits the liver and then infects the red blood cells. From the liver the parasites are slowly multiplying as they reach more and more red blood cells. The process from the liver will continue until each and every red blood cell is affected or when they are destroyed. Hence, the danger of contracting malaria.

Those that get in contact with malaria and do get infected often experience symptoms such as chills, fever, sweating, muscle pain, anemia, nausea, headache and vomiting. Many times the person may think that they have just ate something that does not agree with them and they are having adverse reactions to this. However, the longer the person waits to get to the doctor, the harder it is going to be to treat malaria.

These symptoms are usually appearing in those people who have been bit as little as ten days ago and as much as a month ago. This is why many people do not suspect malaria when they start to show symptoms. The treatment for malaria involves first a diagnoses, which is conducted through blood tests and sometimes DNA testing. The doctor can then narrow down which type of malaria the person has contracted since this will tell the doctor which type of medication to use to treat the person.

For those that do not have a serious case of malaria are going to find that they respond to oral treatments. However, for more series cases of malaria will require that the person be put into the hospital where they are going to have IV's hooked up to them and have constant monitoring since the malaria can slowly start to shut down the systems in the body.

For those that have a low immune system or for children under the age of five the chances of survival are much lower than those who get immediate attention and have no immune system problems. Malaria can kill, however, for those that are going into areas in which this is present, they should be certain to take precautions to prevent putting their bodies through such a difficult process.
