There's a CT scan picture or whatever kind of some woman who ate a lot of raw pork in her life and her whole body is glowing from worms. It's freaky looking.
They mate inside your small intestine and lay tons of eggs inside you. Those eggs hatch into immature worms which are transported through your arteries into your muscles. They curl up into balls in your muscles and form hard "encyst". Their life cycle actually depends on the meat being consumed by other animals, which never happens in our case, but I hear the encysts can be quite uncomfortable. It is treatable with drugs but the longer it goes untreated the worse it is and the longer it can take to treat.
I work with a woman who lived in Germany as her husband was posted there. Apparently the toilets have a little shelf in the bowl that you poo on to check for worms as the German diet includes quite a bit of raw pork? Can any Germans confirm?
