Symptoms usually occur after a couple of days as one will feel an itching. At the affected areas a light dot with a black middle will appear. This knot containing the eggs can be the size of a small lentil and should be removed intact. Doing so, the skin should be opened, usually with a needle, a procedure preferably done by a doctor. If the knot is broken, surrounding tissues should be removed to prevent further infection. If the infection has occurred below a nail, the nail must first be removed.
To prevent these parasites to make themselves at home below your skin, be careful on "dirty" beaches where animals such as pigs and zebu roam. Brushing Besides a daily inspection, brushing your feet and lower legs with soap after visiting such beaches is recommended.
