Doctors for Onchocerciasis Treatment in Hyderabad

Onchocerciasis, also called river blindness, is an illness spread by the bite of tiny blackflies that carry a worm parasite. It can cause itchy skin, rashes, bumps under the skin, and over time may damage the eyes and lead to poor vision or blindness. It is found mostly in parts of Africa and nearby regions where these flies live.

Common symptoms, including chronic infection, subcutaneous nodules and lymphadenopathy, may be associated with onchocerciasis. Timely medical evaluation can help identify the condition and guide appropriate treatment, particularly when symptoms persist or worsen.
