Top 5 words should NEVER Google
1. Larvae
Begin with the first word "Larvae" which was described as the active immature form of an insect, in the Oxford Dictionary.
At a glance, you may think that simply an insect that we already know or see daily.
However, you would be horrified when you Google it as "Larvae" is also the name of a scary condition.
According to WebMD: "Mouth larvae are parasites that hatch and live inside the oral cavities of human and animal hosts. These pests can cause a dangerous infection known as oral myiasis."
"People can develop oral myiasis by eating larvae in their food. Flies can also enter the mouth and lay eggs in wounds."
Therefore, you may encounter some sensitive images of this awful condition if try to look up the word "Larvae."
2. Degloving
Second, "Degloving" is a word that you should avoid Google if do not want to be obsessed with its horrific search.
WebMD claimed that "Degloving" is not only a synonym with "Destroy", but also mentions a tragic condition called avulsion.
Avulsion occurs when a large piece of skin, along with the layer of soft tissue beneath it, is partially or completely torn or ripped away from the underlying muscles and connecting tissues.
It is a severe type of injury that can result from accidents, trauma, or high-impact forces.
Avulsion injuries can cause significant pain, bleeding, and damage to the affected area.
Immediate medical attention is crucial to assess the extent of the injury and provide appropriate treatment, which may involve cleaning, debridement, suturing, or surgical repair.
If you try to Google the word "Degloving," you will be obsessed with its unwanted images, especially for sensitive people.
3. Krokodil
Although "Krokodil" was said to be a type of drug opioid desomorphine, its real harm is even more terrible than many people think, leading to scientists dubbing it a "flesh-eating zombie drug" in a report from CNN.
The drug that can "eat people" in its literal sense...
For the first time in the 1930s, a case of an addict was eaten from the inside out with a new drug called krokodil which was discovered in the state of Arizona, USA, terrifying public opinion around the world.
US authorities were concerned that this was the beginning of a terrifying epidemic after discovering another case of krokodil drug addiction whose body was also ravaged with patches of skin that looked like they had been hollowed out, exposing bones.
Now you can imagine what images can be displayed if you Google "Krokodil."
4. Fournier
The fourth word "Fournier" is a common French surname; however, it also indicates another horrifying thing related to human health.
According to the National Organization for Rare Disorders (NORD), Fournier also known as Fournier's gangrene, is an acute necrotizing infection of the genital area.
This condition is a rare but serious condition characterized by a rapidly progressing infection that affects the genital and perineal regions. It primarily affects males but can also occur in females.
