Solution:
To remove larvae from your skin, follow these simple steps:
- Wash your hands: Start by cleaning your hands with soap and water to prevent infection.
- Use tweezers or tape: You can gently use tweezers to pick out the larvae from your skin. Make sure to grip them close to the surface. Alternatively, you can press a piece of clear tape (like Scotch tape) over the affected area, then carefully peel it off to pull the larvae out.
- Clean the area: After removing the larvae, wash the affected area with soap and water to reduce the risk of infection.
- Watch for signs of infection: Keep an eye on the area for any redness, swelling, or increasing pain. If you notice any of these signs, seek medical attention.
- Prevent future infestations: To avoid getting larvae in your skin, use insect repellent, wear protective clothing, and avoid walking barefoot in areas where these pests may be present.
