Maggot therapy. Surgeon preparing to add maggots (fly larvae) to a patient's wound or ulcer. Some maggots are able to safely clean wounds by eating dead or dying flesh,leaving healthy areas to heal. The maggots prevent the growth of harmful bacteria in the wound by altering the acidity and releasing an antibiotic compound. This is a more efficient method for wound healing than drugs or other treatments,and can help prevent gangrene or septicaemia | |
