A doctor has been left stunned after he made a disgusting discovery inside a man’s body following a routine X-ray check up. 

United States doctor Dam Ghali shared the image of an unnamed patient, claiming it was “one of the most insane X-rays I’ve ever seen”. 

When taking an X-ray of the pelvis for a patient, he quickly discovered the man was infested with hundreds of tapeworm eggs. 

“What is jumping right out off the screen at us is this femur is riddled with these linear densities and they’re everywhere. You can’t even begin to count them all. So what the hell are they?” he explained while examining the X-ray. 

“This is a condition known as cysticercosis. Essentially these are larval cysts of taenia solium – also known as the pork tapeworm.” 

He explained the condition often occurs after a human eats raw or uncooked pig. 

The person then becomes infected with tapeworms in their GI tract. They then can travel anywhere through the body. 

He said in this case the cysts have moved to the muscular and soft tissue regions of the hips and legs in their hundreds. 

While the tapeworms didn’t pose a life-threatening problem in this case, in many cases it can cause major issues or even death. 

Dr Ghali said that major issues occur when they “travel to the brain and lodge there”. 

In some cases it can cause a condition called “neurocysticercosis that can lead to neurological symptoms like headaches, confusion, seizures and even death”. 

He stressed for people to never eat raw or undercooked pork. 

It can carry other parasites like Trichinella spiralis which could case muscle pain, fever, nausea and breathing difficulties. 

The common symptoms with such infection are diarrhoea, abdominal cramps, fever, and fatigue.
