When Aaron Dallas returned from a relatively successful vacation in Belize in the summer of 2007, he noticed that he had several bumps on his scalp. Doctors initially pointed to insect bites or shingles, until the bumps started moving.
It turned out that five maggots had set up camp INSIDE his scalp. He could feel and hear them moving inside him, but thought that it was just blood rushing around. Luckily, the doctors were able to remove them.
Dallas wasn’t the only maggot-infested human. When Rochelle Harris returned to England from Peru, she began to suffer from headaches, soreness in the face, and aural discharge cased by maggots in her ear. The doctors tried to drown them out with olive oil, but at the end, eight live maggots were removed surgically.
