Abstract
AbstractThe parasitic invasion of live mammals by fly larvae (maggots), known as myiasis, is a rare pathology. The fly invades the host tissue and feeds on it to grow. No documentation has been found on homoeopathic intervention for wound myiasis management. A 52-year-old female presented with complaints of ulceration on the left leg with maggot formation, clinically diagnosed as a case of wound myiasis. Calendula officinalis 30CH was prescribed based on the acute symptomatology and keynote symptoms. The case was completely managed within 21 days. The wound was cleaned and dressed regularly with Calendula officinalis Q. This instance illustrates the effectiveness of homoeopathic medication in rapidly and efficiently treating wound myiasis.
