CHIANG MAI, (Thailand): A doctor at Nakornping Hospital in Chiang Mai successfully removed a full-sized leech from a three-year-old girl’s nostril after she suffered repeated nosebleeds over four days.
The hospital shared the case—concerning a young girl from Om Koi district—as a warning to parents to be cautious when allowing their children to play in natural water sources, where leeches may inhabit.
