Sarah…follow my instructions if you want to live. First, get a sharp knife out of the kitchen and heat it on the stove until the edge is glowing red. Second, locate the parasite in your arm and stab it with a forceful downward motion until the worm stops breathing. Then you are going to need to pour some CLR industrial cleaner into the wounds in order to kill the larva and the thousands of eggs waiting to hatch in your body. Lastly, use an ace bandage and a touch of neosporin to dress the wounds.

There’s a new show on the discovery or sci fi channel called “Monsters inside me”. They interview real people who have encountered these worms and how got it, how it was discovered and how they’ve dealt with it. Soooo good! You guys should look it up.

Should’ve added Oncocera Volvulus. Anything that causes “hanging groin” deserves to make the list. More horrifying is that many of these worms – like ascaris and hookworm – travel through the venous circulation, to the lungs, crawl out the trachea, and are ingested in order to enter the intestines.

I have news for some of you who think you can not catch some of these kinds of worms in the U.S.A. My grandmother, who had never been out of the U.S. found out she was infested with hookworms. The doctor said that she had probably been infested all her life; hookworms were endemic in many parts of the southern United States until the 1950’s when indoor plumbing became widespread and the health department started a worming program in the school system. You can still get them if you are not careful. I caught them walking barefoot on a dirt road.

I agree with another poster above who said that you should update this article with known treatments to these infestations. Thanks!
