In the photo, human botfy flies. Adult human botflies capture mosquitoes and some small flies in the air and lay their eggs on the belly of the insect. These host insects can then land surreptitiously on warm-blooded animals, including humans, and at a temperature of 98ºC, the eggs hatch immediately and the small flies quickly dig under the skin and turn into very large worms. nourish the flesh of the host, causing intense pain with each bite. it takes. Feces of the fly cause a serious infection. The fly has thorns on the body that can cause pain when it moves in the flesh. The fly matures, falls from the purulent wound into the forest leaf litter and quickly grows wings to fly and repeat the cycle. Oh, and happy Halloween!

What could be called a bad vacation? How about having a fly in your groin?
There are not many situations where maggots and vacations go well together. The same is true with the words "fly" and "groin", unless you put a fly in the groin, wherever it is. Gather the 3 words and you may end up as a reported case in the Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, like a 36-year-old woman from Tampa, Florida.
After returning from vacation in Belize, the woman noticed a lesion in her left groin and consulted her family doctor. His family doctor prescribed him sulfamethoxazole, an antibiotic. However, despite some improvements, the red and swollen groin area remained. Thereafter Tampa General Hospital, the doctors found a small, hard mass beneath the lesion. A surgeon removed the mass and found a human larva.
Here is a video showing the lesion and the larva if you want to be a little disgusted:
Otherwise known as Dermatobia hoministhis insect normally lives in Central and South America, from Mexico to northern Argentina, with the exception of Chile.
Do you want an even more beautiful picture? Imagine a female botol laying eggs on another insect such as a mosquito or a fly. So imagine mosquito or fly feeding on your skin. When they are exposed to the heat of your skin, these little botfly eggs hatch. The larvae release eggs, which then develop in the skin for 27 to 128 days. Once the larva has grown to adulthood, it falls to the ground, forms a bag-like structure, and emerges 27 and 78 days later as an adult botfly. Does not that make you hot in your heart?
This woman has what is known as a furuncular myiasis, a raised hard skin lesion that has an area of dead skin tissue in the middle. This can be painful and itchy, which is a bad combination. In addition, you can even feel the larvae move under the lesion, which is wonderful.
How do you diagnose this condition? Finding fly larvae or maggots is a good indication. Otherwise, there is no specific screening test "by the larvae in the body". As a result, patients may be misdiagnosed initially. It can affect different parts of your body, such as your scalp, limbs, eyes, breasts, and genitals, depending on where you've been bitten by a fly or mosquito.
The case report, written by Mina Shenouda, MD, Garrett Enten, BS, Thanh Nguyen, MD, Devanand Mangar, MD, and Enrico Camporesi, MD TEAMHealth Research Institute of Tampa has indicated that surgical removal of the larva is not always necessary. They describe theBelize residents smothered the larvae by applying petroleum jelly, nail polish, plant extracts or bacon strips to the central area of the lesion to smother the larvae. This will cause the larvae to emerge several hours later, looking for air. Then you can use tweezers to extract the larvae. Yes, covering your body with bacon has potential health benefits.
This type of problem (not the bacon cover but the myiasis caused by D hominis), according to the authors of the case report, "rarely seen in the US However, it is very common among residents and visitors to the tropical regions of the Americas".
The lesson of this story? Insects that lay eggs on other insects that bite you and lay larvae of these eggs in your groin, which can then move in your groin and make you feel pain and itching do not make a good holiday . But bacon can change that.
