Filariasis is a parasitic disease caused by thread-like worms that live in the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that help to drain excess fluid from the body.
Filaria worms can cause a variety of symptoms, including swelling, pain, and inflammation. In severe cases, filaria can lead to elephantiasis, a condition characterized by the abnormal enlargement of body parts.
