The answer to yesterdays Medical Challenge was Leishmaniasis. This illness is found in tropical and subtropical areas and it is a parasite spread by bites of the sand fly. The skin sores erupt weeks to months after infection and the infection can also damage the spleen and liver. Cure rates are high with the proper antibiotics.
Lucky for us, we do not have this disease in the United States.

You are right. I do feel smarter now.
I guess Roatan has a lot of this problem , I remember that I was warned about those sand fly.
I guess I got lucky ..
Let this be a lesson, kids: fire ants may be delicious, but you should never stick your face directly into their nest to eat them.
This will not have effect in fact, that's exactly what I suppose.
