What is elephantiasis?

Elephantiasis is another skin disease characterized by extreme swelling of parts of the body.  Mosquitos spread this infection in a similar fashion charactistic of malaria.  Parasitic worms swim through the bloodstream causing abnormal growths all over the body.  Naturally, tropical areas such as Central America, Africa, and some parts of Asia are the most vulnerable areas for elephantiasis.  In most cases, some people will not even know they have elephantiasis until up to seven years after the intial infection. 

There is some debate over whether there is a cure for elephantiasis.  Some claim that there has been a cure discovered and that a man lost a significant amount of weight after the treatment, but others claim that it is still incurable.
