When I've had procedures done (rarely) I usually ask if I can see as much of it as possible...years ago I asked to see so they tilted the overhead light reflector in the O.R. so I could see a reflection of they removing a varicose vein on one of my testicles...then I had two more kids (not the same day) so it worked; when I was 11yo I watched them operate a large spike out of my hand.

I like the maggot concept and hope we can find more "natural" solutions to medical problems vs. man-made & (sometimes ill) conceived chemicals. There are probably many other valid and functional ancient remedies that developed over eons of trial and error that we should rediscover.
