Re: The Boy with a Maggot Infection Inside of His Head
Maybe that's The screwworm parasite is the larval stage of the "man-eater" fly Cochlyomyia hominivorax. This parasite, which is generally found in the tropics, feeds on the tissues and fluids of living animals, including humans. They tear at the flesh of the host, enlarging the wound and causing potentially fatal infections. http://animal.discovery.com/inverteb...m-cochliomyia/ |

Re: The Boy with a Maggot Infection Inside of His Head
if those are truely maggots, then they are harmless to living tissue, so it would just simply be a matter of removing them. Maggots are often used to treat necrosis by placing them in a rotting wound and allowoing them to consume the dead tissue.
