What is the harm of schistosomiasis?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why there has been pus coming from my anus, and it has also been swollen and painful. It healed for a while, but then the pain returned. What are the dangers of schistosomiasis?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Schistosomiasis is a disease that not only severely harms human health but also causes great harm to livestock. If livestock contract schistosomiasis, they may experience diarrhea, weight loss, and stunted growth, leading to an increase in the prevalence of the disease. If not treated promptly, it may even lead to death, seriously affecting the expansion of agriculture and animal husbandry. If you notice any abnormalities, you can visit the infectious disease department for follow-up treatment. Based on the results of a thorough examination, further treatment can be provided. Pay attention to hygiene in daily life to prevent transmission. When you have time, visit a specialized hospital for follow-up treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
