Shoes are important

[richteen92]

I assist paramedics 8 hours a week on emergency calls because its a requirement for one of my medical classes at my high school. The other day we went on emergency call to a man who had thought he had an alergic reaction to something and that he was itching his skin because of it. When we arrived on scene we saw little lines moving in his skin on his face. So as we continued to load him into the ambulance we saw someting emerge from his skin. So we took a close look and saw a little white worm looking thing poke its head out for oxygen. So the man freaked out and stated to pull it out, and it was a parasitic worm. Couple of minutes later they started to show up all over his body on his hands, feet, legs, arms, and stomach and on his finger he had something that looked like a wart but it was the worms eggs. So we transported him to the hospital and he got treated for them. Now its important to put shoes on your feet when you walk outside because they are in dirt, puddles, etc. You can also get them by not watching your food when you go to restaurants. Some restaurants don't follow the rules that they are supposed to and some employees don't wash their hands after they use the bathroom. They enter your body because they are microscopic and then they grow to wear you can see them.
