How do you treat wounds from filariasis?

Filariasis treatment: Filariasis is a parasitic disease caused by an infection with certain microscopic worms. These are spread by blood-feeding black flies and mosquitoes. The first step in treating the wounds from this type of infection is killing those worms. Then, routine wound care should lead to healing. Of course, there may be structural damage to the host (i.e. lymphatics) which could cause problems in healing.
