What is the legendary lotus milk?
"Lotus milk" (also called "nipple worm" on the Internet) is actually myiasis. The real killer of breast ulceration is a carnivorous fly (English name Tumbu fly) called "shield fly". A large number of pictures and videos circulated on the Internet were verified to be a 70-year-old African Nigerian woman who was reported as a case. In the previously known literature, chest ulcers caused by shield flies like this are extremely rare. Based on this case, it was discovered that myiasis may also be one of the causes of chest ulcer in the habitat of shield fly. Overcoming Lotus Cream is actually a common skin symptom in medicine. In fact, it can grow in many parts. The famous picture of lotus seed milk from PS once caused a disgusting whirlwind on the Internet. Many people can't forget and overcome it because they left a shadow after watching it, which affected their normal life. Here are several ways to overcome this shadow. 1. Read more, until you don't feel it. The only way to learn forensic medicine is to get rid of the fear of corpses by touching them more. This is called desensitization, but it is not recommended to try. 2. Don't forget anything deliberately. When you try to forget, you are actually forcing yourself to remember, so you will never forget it, and it will only get deeper and deeper in your memory. If you want to forget something, first of all, don't care about it, don't take it seriously, don't think about it. Put your energy and time on something valuable. Put it on what you want to do most. You will naturally forget it. Even if you remember it, it won't affect you. If you mainly rely on yourself, defeating yourself means defeating everything. 3. Treat the world from a scientific perspective. Although I haven't seen these two things you said, I think they are nothing more than very disgusting and counterintuitive things. By scientific view, I don't simply distinguish its truth from falsehood, but look at it this way: the world is made up of matter, and matter is made up of elements. In other words, whatever you see is nothing more than any combination of elements on the list. When you see an elephant, you can think that it is just a collection of elements or atoms and molecules, even if it is disgusting and disgusting, if you look at it, Let's take another example. For example, if we say that something is dirty, don't eat it in your mouth. In fact, the chemical structure of those things will lead to the loss of some nutrients in our cells, or molecular variation (because the energy of chemical bonds is different, it will rob electrons or something). Apart from these factors, in a simple way, they are all the same as the elements in our bodies. If you think so, I think there is nothing to be afraid of. All the disgusting things you see are superficial. If you look at it from its microstructure, you will feel that the world is not so terrible. Including human beings, we are just a group of molecules and atomic groups. When we die, we will decompose and return to the soil. This is what the world is like. Don't cast a shadow over such things, they are not so terrible. The so-called "Lotus Milk", a PS work, is that someone who has a plump breast and a lotus is superimposed together with PS software. As a result, countless netizens who have different thoughts and have never received medical education feel queasy and goose bumps fall all over the floor. A story is attached to this picture in various forums: "A female scientist visited the Amazon rainforest and' found signs of inflammation on her breasts', so she called the accompanying doctor to see it. The doctor just put a plaster on her, but it was like this after a week." Finally, the poster concluded with sadness: "bacterial infection!" " This is an obvious "quack" conclusion. Wounds infected by bacteria will never be so dry and tidy. There are also some netizens with medical common sense who have pointed this out. Although the picture of lotus milk similar to the disease is a synthetic "false photo", it has some connection with another disease. This rare parasitic disease is called multiple myiasis of the breast, but it is not prevalent in the Amazon rainforest, but mainly spreads in some hot and humid areas of Africa. The culprit of this disease is the human skin fly (Cordylobia anthropophaga). It lays eggs on people's clothes, and the larvae hatch and get into people's skin. Sometimes, it also gets into women's breasts. Flies that parasitize people are not only a kind of skin flies, but also sheep mad flies, striped flies, cowhide flies, black-horned stomach flies and so on can be seen in China. According to statistics from Jiang Cipeng of Lanzhou Medical College, from 1995 to 2002, there were 107 cases of human myiasis in China, most of which came from pastoral areas. Some people read "Lotus Milk" and speculated that it was a fungal infection. I'm afraid these netizens are all associated with an expensive crazy fungus-Cordyceps sinensis. Contrary to its name, "Cordyceps sinensis" is neither an animal nor a plant, but a fungus. Fungi are a large class of organisms alongside animals, plants and bacteria. At present, more than 70,000 kinds of fungi have been found and named. Cordyceps sinensis belongs to the family ergotaceae of Ascomycetes in fungi. Most of these fungi are lazy parasites. Besides Cordyceps sinensis, another famous member of this family is ergot. They are parasitic on many Gramineae plants, including wheat. Ergot contains ergotine, which is very toxic and used to cause poisoning to people and animals. 1938, Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann synthesized a substance-ergot diacetamide while studying ergot series compounds. 1943 One day, Hoffman accidentally ingested a small amount of this substance and had a strong illusion-this is the origin of LSD, which influenced a whole generation of westerners 20 years later. Unlike ergot, Cordyceps sinensis prefers to "eat meat". Its host is the larva of the bat moth, which is a caterpillar only a few centimeters long. Every summer, after it hatches from its eggs, it is infected by the spores of Cordyceps sinensis. Soon, the bugs were killed by fungi. Next summer, the fungus will grow its reproductive organ-stroma from the worm's body, and spread more spores around. Fungi also "eat people". In fact, "man-eating" fungi also exist widely, and almost all people have been "eaten" by fungi in their lives. From baby thrush, stubborn beriberi and onychomycosis to annoying dandruff, all of them are ghosts of fungi. Fortunately, most fungal infections are minor ailments. However, there is an exception to everything. In some special people, common fungi may cause great trouble, such as patients and infants with extremely weak constitution, people with dysbacteriosis caused by long-term abuse of antibiotics, people who have taken anti-rejection drugs because of organ or tissue transplantation, and AIDS patients. These people have weak immune systems and give fungi an opportunity. The most famous is Cryptococcus neoformans. It can infect those people mentioned above, causing fatal pneumonia and encephalitis. There is also Mucor, which is indispensable for brewing wine, making noodle sauce and making fermented soybean. In summer, the white hairs on fruits and steamed bread are mostly Mucor. However, it can also infect people with low immunity and cause serious lesions in the brain, lungs and gastrointestinal tract. In other words, fungi "eat" patients from inside the human body. In the fifth season of the famous American TV series CSI· Las Vegas, a case involving Mucor encephalopathy was introduced. However, neither annoying fungal infection on the body surface nor deadly deep fungal infection will grow a "mushroom" on the human body-don't forget, mushrooms are also fungi.
