2. Gas or Bloating

Another very common symptom of a parasite infection is having gas and bloating. Many times, these signs lead doctors to believe that what they are dealing with is irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and not a parasite, since the side effects are very similar. IBS isn’t the only condition that causes these types of side effects either. Others include celiac disease, diabetes, eating disorders, constipation, even colon cancer and more. But when it comes to an internal parasite, the gas and bloating are usually caused by a build-up of additional gas within your GI tract, leading to bloating and a distended stomach.
