I’ve started researching this. I suggest you start researching more from what you read below. As God forbid, if your immune system declines these cysts will break open and wreak havoc on your health.
On the Mayo Clinic’s website it states this under Trichinosis infection.
(Pay close attention to
“Later Signs and Symptoms” paragraph. ***Here, each larva coils up and forms a cyst around itself.***)
“TRICHINOSIS:
Overview
Trichinosis (trik-ih-NO-sis), sometimes called trichinellosis (trik-ih-nuh-LOW-sis), is a type of roundworm infection. These roundworm parasites (trichinella) use a host body to live and reproduce. These parasites infect animals such as bears, cougars, walruses, foxes, wild boars and domestic pigs. You get the infection by eating the immature form of the roundworm (larvae) in raw or undercooked meat.
When humans eat raw or undercooked meat containing trichinella larvae, the larvae grow into adult worms in the small intestine. This takes several weeks. The adult worms produce larvae that travel through the bloodstream to different parts of the body. They then bury themselves in muscle tissue. Trichinosis is most widespread in rural areas throughout the world.
Trichinosis can be treated with medication, though it's not always needed. It's also easy to prevent
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of trichinosis infection and how severe the infection is can vary. This depends on the number of larvae eaten in the infected meat.
Possibly no signs or symptoms
Mild cases of trichinosis — those with only a small number of parasites in your body — may cause no signs or symptoms. Symptoms can develop with moderate or heavy infestation — a large number of parasites in your body. These symptoms sometimes get worse as the roundworm (trichinella) larvae travel through your body.
Initial signs and symptoms
You swallow roundworm (trichinella) larvae in tiny sacks (cysts) containing the parasite. Your digestive juices dissolve the cysts, releasing the larvae into your body. The larvae then enter the wall of your small intestine, where they grow into adult worms and mate. Digestive symptoms can begin 1 to 2 days after infection. At this stage, you may experience:
Diarrhea
Stomach (abdominal) pain
Severe tiredness and weakness (fatigue)
Nausea and vomiting
Later signs and symptoms
About a week after infection, the adult female worms produce larvae. The larvae go through the wall of your intestine and enter your bloodstream, They travel around the body and bury themselves in muscle tissue. ***Here, each larva coils up and forms a cyst around itself.***

Trichinella cysts
After you eat roundworm (trichinella) larvae, they grow into adult worms in your small intestine. The adults then produce larvae that move through the bloodstream to muscle tissues, shown here.
The larvae can live for months to years inside the muscle tissue.
Symptoms caused by muscle tissue invasion usually start 2 to 8 weeks after infection and include:
High fever and chills
Muscle pain and tenderness
Aching joints
Swelling of the eyelids or face
Weakness
Headache
Sensitivity to light
Pink eye (conjunctivitis)
Itchy, irritated skin
With a large number of parasites, muscle pain and weakness can be severe. This can limit moving, breathing and speaking.
Symptoms last for several months. But symptoms generally lessen when the larvae form cysts. Even after the infection is gone, fatigue, mild pain, weakness and diarrhea may last for months or years.“
