Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
I think you mean filariasis.
Filariasis is caused by a worm.
It causes obstruction in the lymphatic channels causing the swelling.
Yes there is a cure for this but it requires Medicines and the course can be little long.
Consult a general surgeon in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
