A 32-year-old thought nothing of it when a small blemish appeared under her eye. Things changed when that small lump spent the next two weeks navigating the woman’s face.
For two weeks, the woman snapped pictures as the blemish traveled leaving bumps just above her eye as it made its way down her face to her lip, causing her mouth to swell.
It turns out it wasn’t just a harmless blemish. It was a parasite, living inside of her face.
A case study featuring a lot of disturbing images about the woman and the worm in her face was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in a report titled “MigratingDirofilaria repens.”
