Any time that a parasite invades the body and causes symptoms, you've got a parasitic disease. There are, however, many different parasitic diseases.
For instance:
Toxoplasmosis- Infection of the brain, caused by Toxoplasma gondii.
Giardiasis- Infection of the small intestine, caused by Giardia lamblia.
Enterobiasis- Intestinal infection by pinworms.
Ascariasis- Digestive tract infection by Ascaris lumbricoides.
Schistosomiasis- Variable infection caused by some form of Schistosoma parasite.
Leishmaniasis- Cutaneous/membranous invasion spread by sandfly bite.
