Jiggers (Chigoe fleas) are parasitic burrowers that thrive on warm-blooded hosts, such as humans.
Once they burrow into an individual’s skin, they create painful wounds that become infected, leading to severe inflammation, ulceration, and fibrosis.
In recorded extreme cases, jiggers have caused gangrene, sepsis, and the loss of toenails, fingers, and toes.
The psychological effects of a jigger infestation are just as traumatizing as the physical effects. Victims of jiggers often experience shame and social isolation, as well as difficulty performing everyday activities.
