A video has shown the grim moment a live spider crawled out of a woman’s ear.
According to The Sun UK, it was filmed by startled docs in India after the patient – named only as Lekshmi L, complained of a headache and a tingling sensation inside her head.
She had fallen asleep on her veranda but woke up with a painful blockage in her right ear.
Medics examining her made the shock discovery and tried to coax it out. It can be seen following the light and slowly emerging from her inner ear.
Dr Santosh Shivaswamy, Consultant ENT at Columbia Hospital said: “It is common to see emergency room visits due to the presence a foreign object in the ear and it takes a simple procedure to remove the object.
“However, when a living insect makes its way inside a human ear, the patient’s anxiety makes it difficult to continue the procedure.
“It was a rare to see a live spider moving inside someone’s ear canal.”
Lekshmi said: “I was terrified as I could feel movement of a creature in my ear. The acute earache followed by sharp pains suffocated me.
“I couldn’t think of anything and was petrified when the doctor confirmed the presence of a spider in my ear.”
