Symptoms of LARVA MIGRANS, CUTANEOUS
People who contract cutaneous larva migrans usually have a localized skin rash or small blister. As the parasite migrates or burrows underneath the skin, thin, raised lines develop on the skin. The tracks span out from the entry point of the organism, and can lengthen up to one centimeter each day. It is common for several tracks in different directions to occur at the same time. The tracks all may vary somewhat in their appearance and in their rate of progression.
