Doctors pulled out a spider from the ear of a 64-year-old woman in Taiwan. After struggling with a strange sensation in her left ear with incessant clicking and rustling sounds, a woman visited an ear, nose and throat clinic.

Doctors pulled out a spider from the ear of a 64-year-old woman in Taiwan. After struggling with a strange sensation in her left ear with incessant clicking and rustling sounds, a woman visited an ear, nose and throat clinic. According to the case study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, the doctors figured it was a spider moving about her ear canal. The spider had discarded its exoskeleton and sat near it. The doctors used a tube to pull out the spider and exoskeleton. The journal also posted a video on X, saying, "A woman with hypertension presented to the clinic with a 4-day history of abnormal sounds in her ear. On examination, a small spider was seen moving within the external auditory canal of the left ear. The moulted exoskeleton of the spider was also present." "She didn't feel the pain because the spider was about 2 to 3 millimetres," said Dr. Tengchin Wang, the report's co-author and the director of the otolaryngology department at Tainan Municipal Hospital.

He had seen ants, moths, cockroaches, and mosquitoes inside people's ears. However, Dr. Wang had never seen a case where the insect moulted inside the ear canal. In his report, he requested the public to consult a doctor if they ever experience such symptoms. Doctors in the United States report that while rare, it is not unheard of to find an insect in a person's ear, the NBS News reported. Studies suggest that at least 14 per cent of objects found in people's ears are live insects. Other identified items are cotton balls, beads, and earring backings. ALSO READ | Exposure to certain chemicals in womb may lead to childhood weight gain: Study According to the National Library of Medical Science, people who suspect they might have an insect inside their ear must not stick their finger inside as the insect could sting them. Moreover, the person should avoid using tweezers or paper clips. Sharp instruments can damage the eardrums and cause bleeding or infection. Doctors also recommended avoiding Q-tips as they could lodge the insect farther in the ear canal. A safe home remedy is to pour vegetable oil, olive oil, or baby oil into the ear to drown the bug. It will help it slide out easily. Dr Wang recommends using lidocaine or ethanol to kill bigger insects. These chemicals prevent damage to the ear by stopping them from moving. People who have successfully removed the insect from their ear should also consult a doctor as a part of a bug could be left behind. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE

A group of llamas and alpacas brought the traffic to a standstill on a major road in Cumbria, North West England, as they broke free from a farm. On Monday, at least 30 animals escaped from the farm store Basecamp North Lakes near Troutbeck in Cumbria.

A group of llamas and alpacas brought the traffic to a standstill on a major road in Cumbria, North West England, as they broke free from a farm. On Monday, at least 30 animals escaped from the farm store Basecamp North Lakes near Troutbeck in Cumbria. They ran towards the A66, a major road in Northern England, reported BBC. The farm owner, Terry Barlow, claimed he ran out of the door after a customer buying sausages casually told him about the flight. His team blocked the route while guiding the animals back to their shelter. The parent firm, Alpacaly Ever After, said a car left a gaping hole in the 7-foot fence at their location and the farm animals escaped before they could detect this issue. Barlow said, "Once the alpacas and llamas spotted the hole, they were too nosey to run and explore. By the time we reached the road, about 30 of them were walking happily towards Penrith." The farm's most confident llama was "in her element" and "introduced herself to every car," he added. Rebecca Remmer and her husband encountered the runaway cattle en route to Appleby. They helped the shop personnel in corralling the llamas and alpacas. "That's something you don't see every day," Rebecca added.

They stated that they were not aware of any agricultural fence damage incident. "I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone on the A66 who stopped their cars," Barlow said. It is not the first time an animal has escaped its premises in Cumbria. There have been several other animal escape instances, including llamas, giant lizards and a gang of wild pigs. In June, a Tegu lizard broke out of her cage in the Workington region. The owner of Pet Encounter Cumbria, Siobhan Harkness, claimed that the Tegu lizard, Echo, may last at visitors with her tail if startled. It belonged to one of the most intelligent lizard species and might be "hiding in plain sight." Indigenous to Central and South America, these lizards are a common pet in households because of their laid-back nature. Last year, a trio of invasive wild pigs, who escaped from a farm close to Solway Holiday Park, grazed the fields of Cumbria for weeks. (With inputs from agencies)

Hurricane Otis made landfall near the resort city of Acapulco on the southern Pacific Coast of Mexico on Wednesday. The Category 5 hurricane threatens to bring record winds and rainfall that could create a dreadful scenario of flooding and mudslides.

Hurricane Otis made landfall near the resort city of Acapulco on the southern Pacific Coast of Mexico on Wednesday. The Category 5 hurricane threatens to bring record winds and rainfall that could create a dreadful scenario of flooding and mudslides. The National Hurricane Center reported that the maximum sustained winds rose to 165 miles per hour with strong gusts when Hurricane Otis hit the Mexico beach at about 12:25 am local time. Hurricane Otis originated in the Pacific Ocean on Sunday and evolved as a Category 1 storm on Tuesday. Forecasters believe the potentially catastrophic storm is the most powerful one Mexico has ever witnessed. Acapulco, a massive port city and famous tourist destination with a population of 852,000, lies in Hurricane Otis' route. The storm hit the Mexico coast as the fishing villages and beach resorts gear up for peak winter season. On Tuesday, the National Hurricane Center called it a "serious situation for the Acapulco metropolitan area." They warned people about the Hurricane reaching near or over the city. ALSO READ | Explained: Why is Israel putting Gaza's ground invasion on back-burner? On Tuesday, the authorities also issued a hurricane warning for the Pacific Coast in Guerrero, the beach town of Punta Maldonado and the resort city of Zihuatanejo. Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the president of Mexico, has urged Guerrero residents to stay prepared for the storm. "Agree to move to shelters, stay in safe places, away from rivers, streams, ravines, and be alert," he said. Meanwhile, the National Coordination of Civil Protection said it evacuated citizens from dangerous areas to temporary shelters in Acapulco and Tecpán de Galeana. It advised people to avoid landslide-prone areas and crossing streams and flooded streets. As per the warning, the storm could produce life-threatening floods and mudslides in mountainous areas. The forecasters predicted a maximum rain of 16 inches across Guerrero and the western coastal section of Oaxaca through Thursday. However, Category 5 storms lose energy over shallower waters when they make landfall. They are tropical storms with wind speeds over 157 miles per hour, the rarest and strongest class in the Saffir-Simpson scale. "There are no hurricanes on record even close to this intensity for this part of Mexico," the National Coordination of Civil Protection added. Otis could be more devastating than Hurricane Pauline, a 1997 storm that caused mass destruction and killed more than 200 people. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE

A mailbox in England has become a snail sanctuary, with the tiny creatures feasting on the post within. Royal Mail put a sign on a postbox in Lewdown, West Devon, saying, "We remove the snails daily, but they are very determined and return." "It is our business policy not to exterminate them with pellets or other means," the sign added. As per the sign, the molluscs seemed to "enjoy making a home" in the Lewdown postbox and ate the glue that held the envelope in shape. BBC reported that the sign has been on the postbox for at least four months. It read further, "Whilst you are very welcome to continue using this postbox, we wanted to mention that your letter may not arrive without some nibble marks around the edges." Villagers believe the vegetation on the wall encouraged the snails to conquer the postbox. The snail invasion has existed for at least a year, and the parish council has not discussed it yet. Residents can post their mail at the village post office, as snails have not raided it yet. However, the Lewdown postbox is not the only place these tiny creatures have settled. Residents of Marazion, Cornwall, found their postboxes sealed off to keep these tiny invaders out. The postbox survived without any issue for over a century, surviving even two World Wars and the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the authorities had to shut it down as it became impossible for the staff to retrieve mail from it.

In 2001, the slimy creatures crawled up postboxes in piles of letters all over England. The officer in charge, Tom Potts, told The Guardian, "We were finding 20, even 30 snails at a time in the bottom of boxes. It wasn't just ones or twos. They were leaving their slime everywhere, getting into the letters, licking the paste. But they left the stamps alone, respectful of the Queen's image." Snails are herbivores, and they breed rapidly in damp conditions. They eat vegetables, fruits, flowers, and cereals. They also feed on rotting organic material. However, they are fond of glue on envelopes and stamps. According to Country Life, there are over 120 varieties of snails in Britain. However, people mostly notice the common brown snails lurking around in corners. (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE

Heman Bekele, a 14-year-old boy from Virginia, has developed a soap that can treat skin cancer. The ninth grader from WT Woodson High School in Annandale, Virginia, won the America's Top Young Scientist after competing with nine other finalists in the 2023 3M Young Scientists Challenge.

Heman Bekele, a 14-year-old boy from Virginia, has developed a soap that can treat skin cancer. The ninth grader from WT Woodson High School in Annandale, Virginia, won the America's Top Young Scientist after competing with nine other finalists in the 2023 3M Young Scientists Challenge. According to reports, Bekele infused medicinal soap with three other ingredients and created an affordable soap for treating skin cancer. The ingredients revive the dendritic cells to induce an immune response to combat the fatal disease. The cost of one bar of soap is $0.50, the Daily Mail reported. According to Bekele's LinkedIn, he is a freshman attending Woodson High School and a self-taught programmer, fluent in Python, Lua, JavaScript, and C. He describes himself as "passionate about medicine, programming, and making an impact" and "eager for opportunities in research and internships in STEM & computer science."

However, the average price of an operation is $40,000," Bekele told Fairfax County Public Schools. He was devastated to know that people had to choose between treatment and putting food on the table for their families. He added, "There are so many preventable deaths." Bekele researched more about skin cancer and dendritic cells. In the video he submitted for the contest, he mentioned the three ingredients are salicylic acid, glycolic acid, and tretinoin. He further explained that the three ingredients are keratolytic agents that break down the skin's outer layers. The young genius named the product skin-cancer treating soap (SCTS). A patient can apply the soap to the skin every two to three days after getting a prescription. Bekele also received $25,000 with the award, which he plans to put towards securing a patent and college. Heman aspires to become an electrical engineer in the future. He said, "I envision myself leading a team of professionals developing innovative electrical systems that will shape the future of technology. Alongside my professional success, I hope to have a fulfilling personal life with a loving family and a strong network of friends." He added, "I also hope to have given back to my community by mentoring aspiring engineers and supporting initiatives that promote STEM education. Ultimately, in 15 years, I hope I positively impacted the world through my work and personal endeavours." (With inputs from agencies) WATCH WION LIVE HERE
