Matthew O’Donnell was working in Tanzania before coming back to home. One day while sitting on his couch, he found something moving in his foot.
One close examination, it was found that he didn’t return alone from Tanzania. A parasitic bug called Chigoe Flea had hitched a ride from Africa to UK on his foot, and had laid dozens of eggs inside his foot. The larvae developed into bugs and exploded out of his foot in his bedroom.
The doctor eventually gave him all clear after medical examination.

A man from India was found something very irritating in his eye. He thought that he had an eye infection and had turned his eye red and caused severe itching.
He sought help from an eye doctor, who gave him the shock of his life. What he thought was infection turned out to be a 5 inch worm inside his cornea. Doctors had to perform emergency surgery in order to remove the worm, which actually lived for 30 more minutes after being removed from his eye.
This is possibly the most disgusting case of parasites in human body. A Chinese man returned to his home after a 6 month trip to Africa. He noticed small red colored sores on the right side of his body including his leg.
The sores were extremely painful and severely itchy and he also suffered high fever. After consulting a doctor, he found out that the sores were caused by flesh eating bacteria, that were present in a bunch under his skin.
