How much time is a person infected with balantidium?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Balantidium: Balantidium coli is a parasite of pigs that can be transmitted to humans by consumption of contaminated food or water. Travel to a developing country is considered a risk. Usually it's only a few days after exposure that symptoms can develop. Depending on the patient, symptoms may last some time.
