Sebahagian ulat dikeluarkan dari bekas luka di perutnya.
Kejadian berlaku selepas Catherine Stewart, 28, dari Liverpool menyertai program amal di Gambia, Afrika.
Kesan gigitan serangga dipercayai lalat tumbu yang membawa rengga pemakan daging itu mula dikesan sebaik beliau kembali ke Britain.
Within weeks of returning home from Africa, Catherine Stewart felt something wriggling in her stomach
"Saya dapati kesan gigitan bertukar daripada kemerahan kepada kekuningan.
"Apa yang terlintas di fikiran ia hanyalah nanah biasa lalu saya memicitnya.
Bagaimanapun, selepas itu saya merasakan ada sesuatu objek bergerak di dalam lubang gigitan dan berasa gatal serta sangat sakit," katanya.
Sebelum mendapat rawatan di hospital Royal Universiti Liverpool, beliau mengeluarkan enam ulat hidup dari lukanya itu.
"Ia sangat menjijikkan tetapi saya dapati masih terdapat puluhan ulat di dalam luka itu," katanya dipetik laporan MailOnline
Catherine discovered she was infested when she asked her husband, Paul, to use a tweezers to pull out what was wriggling in her abdomen (CGI pictured). Paul immediately took her to hospital
Pakar menyarankan beliau perlu memakai pakaian kering dan bergosok kerana telur ulat berkenaan akan mati akibat kesan haba seterika.
"Jika seseorang itu terkena gigitan lalat tumbu, kawasan gigitan itu akan menjadi tempat larva menetas," katanya.
Menurutnya, ulat daripada larva itu akan mencari lubang udara dan kesannya, individu dijangkiti akan berasa sakit pada bahagian tisu gigitan.
The small wounds can be come incredibly painful as the maggots gorge on flesh to reach the surface where they can breathe more easily and grow into mature flies
The female tumbu fly lays its eggs on damp clothing or towels. If damp fabrics come into contact with human skin, then the eggs penetrate the skin and hatch into larvae (CGI pictured) that feast on flesh
