Abstract
The relationship between intestinal parasites and chronic gastrointestinal disorders is a topic of great clinical importance because of the potential role of parasitic infections in developing and exacerbating gastrointestitis. Intestinal parasites, including protozoa, helminthes, and other pathogens, are known to cause a wide range of digestive symptoms such as diarrhea, and abdominal pain. In chronic cases, parasitic infections may contribute to long-term inflammation, immune system dysfunction, which can perpetuate digestive disorders. The presence of these parasites can complicate the diagnosis and management of chronic conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and other functional gastrointestinal disorders. This review examines the mechanisms through which intestinal parasites influence the gut, explores the clinical evidence linking parasitic infections with chronic digestive issues, and discusses the implications for diagnosis and treatment in affected populations. Further research is needed to better understand the interplay between these infections and chronic gastrointestinal disorders, as well as to develop effective management strategies.
