What is the significance of nonpathogenic amoeba?
If you have been diagnosed with a nonpathogenic parasite and are symptomatic (sick), your illness is probably caused by another organism such as a pathogenic parasite, a bacterium, virus or other noninfectious disease. Further testing arranged by your physician should be considered. If you are asymptomatic (not sick) the amoeba present will cause no harm and in most cases are self limiting and will remain in the body for weeks to years.
