Cerebral cysticercosis is generally not contagious, but still carries some risk of transmission. Cysticercosis, also known as porcine cysticercosis, is a disease caused by the larvae of the pork tapeworm parasitizing various tissues and organs of the human body. It is a parasitic infection, not a contagious disease, and is usually not contagious. Pork tapeworm can be infected only when water or food infected with eggs of pork tapeworm is mistakenly eaten; or after coming into contact with eggs in feces. Daily contact with patients does not usually cause the disease to spread. Normal people accidentally eat water or food contaminated with pig tapeworm eggs, the eggs enter the digestive tract through the mouth, hatch into cysticerci in the duodenum, the cysticerci burrow into the intestinal wall blood vessels through the blood circulation to spread throughout the body, such as parasitism in the body’s central nervous system, it is known as cerebral cysticercosis. Clinical manifestations include headache, nausea and vomiting, weakness, and in severe cases, seizures. If you suspect cerebral cysticercosis and have the corresponding clinical manifestations, you should go to the regular hospital in time for treatment.
