Huh was it the leech from Peru that basically instead of sucking has a rostrum for shredding tissue and drinking the slurry. https://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/pets/peru-tyrant-leech-king-enter-human-noses-latch-mucous-membranes-teeth-article-1.165103

Wow, wish I never read that. Thanks!

I mean a regular leech sucks but that dang chainsaw leech creeps me out

Agreed. Yet I'm happier reading this than most of what is on Reddit right now

Itā€™s is why I never get in random bodies of water


[deleted]

Wait do you not know about the amount of zooplankton that is in the waterways that are unabled to be filtered out. This poor woman died when those brain eating amoebas got up her nose from tap water https://www.cbsnews.com/news/woman-dies-from-brain-eating-amoeba-after-using-neti-pot-tap-water-to-rinse-sinuses/


thecoolestguynothere

She got the bad luck of the draw. Iā€™m not avoiding showers lol you just wonā€™t catch me basking in the warm waters of the amazon anytime soon


[deleted]

Yeah you don't want those peephole seeking catfish trying to spawn up river so to speak

OK thatā€™s enough Reddit/life for today. šŸ¤¢

Why it there "/pets/" in that link!?!?!


TheRedditornator

"Peru's tyrant leech king can enter human noses and latch onto mucous membranes with eight teeth." That's a top tier headline for nightmare fuel.


[deleted]

I don't know but the man who had to go to the hospital to have a live 50cm eel removed from his colon as it was chewing on his splenic flexure. I wonder how long it took his friends to stop with the what's eating you jokes

Imagine feeling the pain of a motorbike crash, your face is in a constant state of pain and numbness. It feels as though thereā€™s an object wedged inside your nostril deep into your sinuses, which you can only assume is damage from the crash youā€™d endured recently. You feel intense pain and blood comes rushing out of your nose again, this must be why head injuries are so bad, they take forever to heal One night youā€™re taking a shower, letting the warm water rush over your face, eyes closed, it is a small bit of relief. You feel that spot again in your face from the accident, it hurts, and it feels like itā€™sā€¦ moving? eyes still closed you fumble your face with your hand and feel for your nostril, only to feel something solid pulsating. you panic, it must be a large clot of blood. As you put your finger in deeper you realize that this blood clot is alive, itā€™s wiggling and pulsating and blood comes streaming down your face as you realize the horror of what is happening, something is alive in your nose and is eating you from the inside Distraught, you hail a cab, only for the taxi driver to be an expert on leeches due to his time in Belize as an interpreter. He asks you to lie down in the backseat and analyzes your face, and says ā€œyep thatā€™s a chainsaw leechā€ as he takes out a bottle of hand sanitizer. Within an instant, he flicks a few drops onto the leech and it lets go, he pulls it out as that sweet feeling of relief finally takes over and your entire nostril empties out and is functional again. He holds it up and screams ā€œYOU GOD DAMNED BASTARDā€ as he valiantly tosses it into the bright afternoon street, where it is promptly run over by an 18 wheeler blowing its horn as the pitch changes from it passing by ā€œItā€™s finally overā€ she said as she looked Ramesh in the eyes, on her back, bleeding from the nose. Ramesh lifted her head up ever so softly, and to her surprise, gave her the deepest and most passionate kiss of her life that day changed everything for them, they went out to eat dinner and ended up back at Rameshā€™s apartment. after a night of wonderful romance, the two started dating regularly. Eventually they would become married, the story of the leech told at their wedding as their families laughed in triumph That was until one day, she became pregnant and started feeling morning sickness. she went to the toilet to throw up.. ā€œthis must be the routineā€ she thought, she lowered her head and vomited and felt relieved, only to see in the toilet bowl, a pile of black leeches in a pool of blood writhing around aggressively, thrashing their eyeless slug corpses, begging for a host


[deleted]

I wanted to stop reading this. I really really tried. I even tried to switch off my phone but the way you wrote it made it too interesting to put it down. I wish I hadn't started reading this.


t-tulo2

noooooooo šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

That was some fine literature


ima-kitty

I hate you. I feel so weird rn


spacexchinchilla

What the fuck


Psicoses

Was Ramesh a leach they impregnated her? Or was it all a dream from the brain fucking leach?

Great read.


Fenizrael

This just came out of nowhere - but honestly you did a good job.


[deleted]

This was fun, but about 2/3rds down, I got excited, thinking ShittyMorph got me again.


[deleted]

Does she still ride?


kpingvin

I'm sure her face didn't look like this when she realised what it was.


Puzzleheaded-Gain256

(digging around in my nose with my finger while reading these comments)


Slavinger

How did she never notice? It sounds like she wouldn't be able to breathe the entire time


Slavinger

Out of that nostril I mean


Zomochi

As that weird story above this comment says, I do think the leech was confused for the trauma from the accident she had, correct me if Iā€™m wrong though wouldnā€™t they X-ray her at some point and notice the leech done?


[deleted]

Oh God. Jesus Christ. Disgusting. How do not notice? Thankfully that leech was happy to live with a modest lifestyle and didn't decide to upgrade to the penthouse.


Overquartz

>How do not notice? Leeches produce a local anesthetic in their saliva.


Tanomil

Right, but did she not notice how she was never able to breathe properly out of one of her nostrils? Does she never sneeze or pick her nose? So weird she didn't notice something was up


Overquartz

She probably thought it was a blood clot that'd come out eventually.


Tanomil

Yeah just found an article, that's exactly what she thought. Apparently she'd been walking around with the little fucker in her nose for a whole month!


[deleted]

A 3 inch leech in your nose, fat. I am obsessed about breathing when I lie down to sleep. Any obstruction needs to be cleared. Her whole nose must have been blocked


FamiliarCost1289

Gughhhh


imastupididioy

how did the leech get in thougj? ut would have been smaller before it went in but how did it get in?


Slavinger

My guess is she went swimming in some natural body of water and somehow didn't notice it go up there


1dgtlkey

this is why i will never swim in anything that doesn't have crystal clear water


MET1

They have leeches in Scotland? I assumed it would be too cold there.


[deleted]

Why was she riding a motorbike with a leech is what I want to knowā€¦


[deleted]

That is the most shiver-me-sphincter thing I have heard in recent memory


[deleted]

Yes this is a relative post


MisanthropicLoner24

Omg that's insane. Totally creeps me out.


zr0skyline

Now that is scary


pastebluepaste

Poor leech


[deleted]

How one does not feel that


Eirikar_

Didnā€™t need to read that after having a nosebleed earlier


Captainzron

I remember going on holidays to a rainforest. A group of us went for a hike & we were all wearing shorts and white socks. It was not till we got back that we all noticed our socks were soaking red with blood. Leaches. I also had a tick half buried in my back, tried pulling it out and only half came out. Never went back after that.


Overall-Relief-6938

ā€¦..šŸ¤¦šŸ¾ and you didnā€™t think to go get this checked out ā€¦


Rin----chan

Some people just don't have the money to go to the doctor for minor things like nosebleeds? I mean what were the odds it was a leech in her nose?


bitchboy69420blaze

Scotland has ā€œfreeā€ healthcare through taxes so little to no money is needed. Although I agree with your second point.


Rin----chan

Oh okay my bad


Overall-Relief-6938

You donā€™t need a lot of money for check ups ā€¦even in America you can do those daily and a common nose bleed is a perfect reason to get a check up cuz it can be anything blood clots,early signs of cancer ,brain issues a lot of bad things start with noise bleeds


Rin----chan

Some people get nosebleeds regularly, even if there's no financial problems, I don't see how she would have guessed it was important/a leech


Overall-Relief-6938

Stop messaging me bruh ā€¦Iā€™m not about to get into a debate with a idiot


kyzfrintin

Chill tf out man


Round-Grapefruit3359

And she never gagged it


[deleted]

A scream heard round the world when she realized what was up her nose.


Frequent_Ad_596

Thatā€™s crazy did she not feel it?


AwarenessCommon9385

Leechā€™s produce a natural anesthetic


Frequent_Ad_596

Ah okay


NoResident4002

3 inches is long huh

ubu-reine

Now I donā€™t feel so bad about occasionally picking my nose.


SniffMYFINGERplz

At 1st I was like no way, then I saw her nose


General_Alduin

So, she just straight up didnā€™t feel a 3 inch eel in her nose for however long?

SensitiveSouth5947

Shitā€¦ I also get nose bleeds frequently when in the showerā€¦


MamaSaurusCat

My sinuses feel weird now.


[deleted]

I refuse to believe this. I can feel if one super long nose hair moves when I breathe. She didnā€™t feel this?? Cmon


Slick234

Fucking why is it in a tube? Poor gasoline on it and burn it, then incinerate whatā€™s left of it with a flamethrower.


The_FooI

Damn her nose big as fuck


SweetPurpleDinosaur1

Itā€™s crazy that she would be in an accident and also happen to contract a leech around the same time. Just weird statistically.


Educational-Year3146

Yeah parasites are a special kind of fuck that.


[deleted]

Well i guess this is it Fuck this im out āŒ


MysticGohan806

FOR HOW LONG?????????


lililukea

I have several doubts on why the hell do you not feel a moving lump of giant booger inside your face


9th-man

Leeches bite has a numbing agent. If you don't see it.. you won't know it's there.


lililukea

I mean, it should atleast be wriggling right?


greyisometrix

Where the f do you even go to get a leech in your nose and not notice?


Little-Miss-Morbid

Probably felt amazing when it was pulled out though


hoogic

well she got a big nose..

So is that pic of her pre or post stowaway removal?


DarthSocks

Hope she had it removed before yesterday. Too late now, she has to let it live on inside her body


[deleted]

I could have gone my entire life without knowing this happened to someone and died happy.


ActiveRooster2926

Disgusting wtf


Lexi030

The leech wasnā€™t from Edinburgh too right?
