  • For some bug babies, your body is home sweet home. Human botfly larvae, for example, burrow under your skin, forming a pus-filled pimple. Meanwhile, thousands of young loa loa worms can travel throughout your body -even across your eyeball! Lets explore all the awful ways these creepy crawlies have children beneath your skin.

    The worms crawl in
    The worms crawl out
    The worms play pinochle on your snout.
    They eat your eyes
    They eat your nose
    They eat the jam between your toes
    And when your bones decay and rot
    The worms are left and you are not.

    *True story:* I never knew cockroaches could crawl into human ears until it happened to my ex's sister. She went to hospital complaining she felt movement and pain inside her ear. When they checked, they found a small roach trying to burrow into her ear canal. To get it out, they had to quickly kill the roach without scaring it (or it'd burrow harder and damage her ear drum). My ex didn't tell me what they used to kill it, but the roach died and they used thin tweezers to pull it out. After he told me about her experience, I wore ear plugs to sleep for 2 weeks 😅
    I felt bad for his sister, her siblings would tease her about it.

    The tape worm larvae can only get to other organs when the eggs are eaten, not when you have the worm in your guts (taeniasis). That only happens when humans are the accidental primary host, taking the place of cows and suines (cysticercosis).

    Loa Loa worm:
    Loa loa is commonly found in Africa. People at the highest risk for acquiring loiasis are those who live in the rainforests of West or Central Africa. Furthermore, the probability of getting bitten by a deer or mango fly increases during the day and during rainy seasons. The flies are also attracted to smoke from wood fires. These flies do not commonly enter houses, but they are attracted to the houses that are well lit, so will congregate outside.
    Travelers can be infected in less than 30 days after arriving in an affected area, although they are more likely to be infected whilst being bitten by multiple deerflies over the course of many months. Men are more susceptible than women due to their increased exposure to the vectors during activities such as farming, hunting, and fishing.
    Reports of microfilaremia have been made in Angola, Benin, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Nigeria, and Sudan, and possibly rare cases in Chad, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Uganda, and Zambia. Of the 10 countries that have high rates of infection, about 40% of the people who live in the area have reported being infected with the worm in the past. The population in high-risk areas is about 14.4 million; in addition, 15.2 million people live in areas where around 20-40% of people admitted to having the worm in the past.
    A study performed to review reported cases of L. loa in nonendemic countries in the past 25 years reviewed 102 cases of imported loiasis, 61 of them from Europe and 31 from the USA. Three-quarters of the infestations were acquired in three countries considered endemic: Cameroon, Nigeria, and Gabon. In the subjects viewed, peripheral blood microfilariae were detected 61.4% of the time, eye worm migration 53.5% of the time, and Calabar swellings 41.6% of the time. A trend appeared in the symptoms of the patients where Calabar swellings and eosinophilia were more common among travelers. African immigrants tended to have microfilaremia. Eye worm migration was observed in a similar proportion between the two groups. Only 35 of the patients underwent clinical follow-up. The researchers concluded that L. loa would end up migrating to Europe and the United States, due to increased travel to already endemic regions.
    Prevention:
    Currently, no control programs or vaccines for loiasis are available. However, diethylcarbamazine treatment is suggested to reduce risk of infection. Avoiding areas where the vectors, deer and mango flies, are found also reduces risk. This includes swamps, bogs, and shaded areas near rivers or near wood fires. Fly bites can be reduced by using insect repellents such as DEET and wearing long sleeves and pants during the daytime. Permethrin treatment on clothes is an additional repellent that could be used. Also, using malaria nets can reduce the number of fly bites acquired.
    Treatment:
    In the western part of Africa, an increase in prevalence has been associated with the distribution of ivermectin, which is used to prevent the infection of onchocerciasis, which is also very prevalent in the same region. Patients with L. loa who are treated with ivermectin have extreme adverse effects, including death.
    Ivermectin has become the most common antiparasitic agent used worldwide, but can lead to residual microfilarial load when given in the management of loiasis. Treatment with ivermectin has shown to produce severe adverse neurological consequences in some cases. These treatment complications can be increased in individuals co-infected with onchocerciasis. Some of these patients experienced cases of coma and resultant encephalopathy, parkinsonism, and death. After about 12 hours, the first signs start to appear and include fatigue, pain in joints, mutism, and incontinence. Severe disorders of the consciousness start to develop after about a day.
    Although Ivermectin is a common treatment for loiasis, *the Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends treatment with diethylcarbamazine (DEC).* Symptoms may be resolved with as little as 1-2 courses of DEC. DEC is chosen over Ivermectin because evidence supports its ability to kill both the adult worms and the microfilariae, which are the main cause of the severe neurological problems mentioned above. In some cases, albendazole may also be an effective treatment used to reduce the microfilariae prior to treatment with DEC. The body's response to albendazole is slow, so the patient being treated must be monitored closely and frequently to ensure it is effective.

    @WillMauer Před 4 lety +1

    The tapeworm cycle wasn't well explained... actually it doesn't even tell there's actually a cycle. You don't get the larvae on the brain by having the adult in your intestines; in rare cases the person can get antiperistalsis and make food with freshly laid eggs go wrong way back to the stomach, causing the self-infection. You would actually have to ingest food (usually vegetables) or water contaminated with human feces with eggs from Taenia solium (acquired eating infected pork) that hatch on stomach acid. The eggs from the adult don't hatch if they were released already in the intestines. And you have to eat raw/rare pork/steak containing cysticerci to get an adult individual.

    The start kinda creep me out but the only weirdest thing is like I sleep on my side covering my ears and my mouth with my blanket because I'm scared of bugs-
