Yes.

It isn't like the days of old where we bleed out the bad spirits. The leeches are sterile (clean) just like the maggots are that eat the rotting flesh and leave pure, clear skin inside of wounds. It is a very clinical approach, and makes perfect sense.
-
Yes. Seems like a good idea to me.
-
Yes. Maggots are wonderful for cleaning our necrotic tissue, and there's nothing like a good leech reestablishing blood flow. Isn't nature wonderful,
-
Yes, I did. I actually watched some kind of television program that showed it. It freaked me out! They really helped but all I could think is eeeeewww!
-
Yes, someone I knew got the maggot treatment a few years ago.
-
Yes and very successfully. Of course humans with the same name are not quite so popular.
-
Yes. But the nation's VA hospitals, they're more of a byproduct of the lack of attention than an intention to have them.
-
Yep, but they're medical grade. It turns out that maggots only eat dead tissue so they're an ideal way to debride a wound. I think most of the patients are drugged during the procedure. I think feeling the creatures crawling around on me would be pretty traumatic.
-
I knew about leeches, but not maggots! I know they are both successful treatments, but its just too creepy for me. i dont think i could let them put those one me :0
-
Yup
-
Maggots and leeches have not only less side effects(none) but are more effective than modern medications. Weird isn't it?
-
In this day of cable TV with entire networks devoted to such things, who didn't know?
-
Yes, but, now they are used for specific known effects, not the old draw-out-the-negative-elements thing.
-
yeh,but they're also used in insurance companies,did you know that:)
-
Yes I knew this....
-
Yes, I've seen them at work :-)
-
