He was sitting on the bed, clutching his head in his hands, crying, and pressing his palm against his ear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 \u201cMom, there\u2019s someone in there!\u201d he sobbed. \u201cIn my ear \u2014 it\u2019s moving!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His mother tried to calm him down, thinking he might be imagining things. But the boy kept crying, insisting that something was crawling inside his ear. His father, pale with fear, didn\u2019t hesitate \u2014 he put the boy in the car and sped to the nearest hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the emergency room, the doctor tried to stay calm at first. X-rays were taken \u2014 nothing unusual. The doctor even suggested that the boy might be pretending to avoid going to kindergarten. But the child, trembling with fear, pleaded:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2014 \u201cPlease, doctor, take it out. It\u2019s moving\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hayinfo.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/v-uxe1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45887\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hayinfo.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/v-uxe1.jpeg\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The woman took a small flashlight, gently tilted the boy\u2019s head, and looked into his ear. Her face instantly turned pale.

Tiny white larvae were wriggling, clinging to the walls of the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The parents froze in disbelief, unable to comprehend what they were seeing. An ENT specialist was immediately called. Using a microscope, he carefully removed several larvae and flushed the ear with a special solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It turned out that the boy had fallen asleep on the porch during the summer, and during the night, a fly had been buzzing around him. The insect had laid eggs directly inside the ear canal, where it was warm and humid \u2014 perfect conditions for hatching.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hayinfo.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/v-uxe.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-45886\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hayinfo.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/v-uxe.jpeg\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the procedure, the boy recovered quickly, but his mother remained deeply shaken \u2014 haunted by the thought that she hadn\u2019t believed her son at first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, whenever he complains about something, she never argues or dismisses it again. Because now she knows: even the most unbelievable things can be true.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>A 5-year-old boy complained of severe ear pain and insisted that something was inside: the doctor examined him \u2014 and screamed in horror&nbsp; That morning, <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/?p=6368\" title=\"A 5-year-old boy complained of severe ear pain and insisted that something was inside: the doctor examined him \u2014 and screamed in horror\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6369,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6368","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6368"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6368\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6370,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6368\/revisions\/6370"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/time.amazingstory.blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
