View Full Version : What The?...
Chad22 07-20-2003, 12:56 AM A Friend of mine just sent me this, Is this true?
Kolkata, June 24 (IANS) A 13-year-old boy whose bizarre ailment has a fly-like insect emerging out of him is far from being cured as doctors struggle to detect the source of the parasite.
The fully-grown flies, as doctors described the parasites, have been emerging out of Chandan Goswami's genitals and flying off for more than two weeks now.
In myiasis, the larvae of a type of fly invade a human or animal body, dead or alive. The deposited eggs can then enter the body through pores, the mucous membrane or even the mouth. The hatched larvae then emerge out the host's skin and pupate.
In myiasis, the maggots usually are found underneath the skin and are removed by minor surgery. But whole flies emerging out of a human body is rare, doctors said.
Chandan told doctors he first felt pain in his abdomen almost a month ago. And then he saw the flies intermittently coming out of his penis.

:o Yes, no thanks to you.:mad:
Chad22 07-20-2003, 01:02 AM Well i looked it up a little more and i thuink it is true.
So far little has been discussed about human infection, this is because the control methods described thus far are not possible for treatment in humans. At present there are two options once a person is affected, either leave the larvae to develop and exit on its own accord, or remove it. Removal usually involves the occlusion of the spiracles of the larvae where they emerge from the skin
Oil and Vaseline have been used but very good results have been achieved using strips of bacon over the site, these strips entice the larvae out the cutaneous tissue far enough to be removed with small forceps.

Montana Ponine 07-20-2003, 10:43 AM Poor guy! That's awful...not to mention gross and embarrassing. I hope they find a way to cure it soon.
Warm & Fuzzy 07-20-2003, 10:32 PM I think that's a true article. Here's one from Yahoo.com.
