Is it normal to wonder if leeches could fix a cysts, acne, boils, infections?

7 Comments

Leeches suck out blood but have been used for medical uses. A cyst is an infected area. Its collected bacteria and germs collecting under one area. Things like this you are not suppose to pop or they might spread. If a leech sucks out your infected blood it would also be sucking out your infection. If the infection was digested none is lingering in your system. So you would have successfully removed it without leaving any trace left.

    Yer think that could work but I would put anti septic in the site after the leech had done it's work.

    Its a possibility. However, wouldn't there be a higher risk of blood contamination? For instance, lets say a leech sucked the blood of a person with an STD or a blood related heath issue, then sometime later this very same leech sucked the blood of another. If the blood from its previous victim is still around its mouth wouldn't the blood enter the next person when it latched on to them?
