Doctors for Onchocerciasis Treatment in Navi Mumbai

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.

When symptoms such as severe itching, subcutaneous nodules and skin thickening are related to onchocerciasis, they may affect a person's comfort, routine activities, or overall health. Persistent or worsening symptoms should be medically assessed to identify the condition and determine the next steps in care.
