Oral trichomoniasis

Introduction to oral trichomoniasis Oral trichomoniasis is caused by parasitic trichomoniasis in the mouth, tartar, and cavities of the teeth, which can cause cough and clinical symptoms of cough, so it is also called oral trichomoniasis. It is generally considered that it is not directly related to oral diseases, but it can be delayed to cause bronchitis and lung infection. The main symptoms are cough and cough, and the worms can be detected in yellow and bloody sputum or pleural effusion. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.002% Susceptible people: no specific population Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: bronchitis

Causes of oral trichomoniasis

(1) Causes of the disease

Trichomonas vaginalis varies greatly in morphology, typically elliptical or oval, with a size of 7.1 (4 to 13) m × 4.7 (2 to 9) m. The four anterior flagella are divided into two groups, two in each group. The length of the flagella is almost equal, while the flagella of the two groups are slightly different. The length of the undulating membrane and the basal chromosome is shorter than that of the worm. The stalk of the stalk protrudes from the posterior body without posterior flagella (Fig. 1). The worm only has a trophozoite form, which is parasitic in the mouth, tartar and teeth in the cavity, and divides and propagates in the longitudinal direction.

(two) pathogenesis

Trichomonas vaginalis is parasitic in the mouth, tartar and teeth in the acupoints, often accompanied by a large number of Clostridium and spirochete parasitism, generally considered not directly related to oral diseases.

Oral trichomoniasis prevention

The only effective measure to prevent this disease is to maintain good oral hygiene and actively treat oral diseases such as dental caries, gingivitis and periodontitis.

Oral trichomoniasis complications Complications bronchitis

Can be complicated by bronchitis and lung infections.

Oral trichomoniasis symptoms common symptoms cough up yellow sputum vomiting blood sputum pleural effusion

Oral trichomoniasis is often associated with purulent gingivitis, and the main symptoms are coughing, coughing, and the detection of large numbers of corpus callosum in the yellow or bloody sputum.

1. According to medical history or clinical cough, cough and other symptoms.

2. Find the body in the yellow and bloody sputum to diagnose.

Examination of oral trichomoniasis

Secretion examination

Use smear microscopy or culture method to take vaginal secretions, prostatic fluid, urine to check Trichomonas vaginalis. Vaginal secretions are often yellow purulent.

2. Fecal examination

Take stool or bile to check for trichomonas.

3. Alveolar pus check

Take the trough pus to check the trichomoniasis.

Diagnosis and identification of oral trichomoniasis

The disease must be differentiated from the upper sensation and bronchopulmonary infection. Simply remove the secretions from the saline solution, do not stain, and use a normal microscope to check immediately. It is easy to observe that the rapid stretching of the flagella and the sprint activity of the oval protozoa are more sensitive than direct microscopy. Dyeing smears make a diagnosis. Relevant tests should be performed to rule out gonorrhea, chlamydia and other sexually transmitted diseases.
