Hello,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic. I understand your concern. If I am your doctor I suggest you that it is caused by W. bancrofti, treatment for it is DEC & Ivermectin. But if you have a big leg than it requires surgical intervention along with medical treatment.
I will be happy to answer your further concern
You can contact me.
Dr Arun Tank. Infectious disease specialist.
