A Chinese man nearly died after allegedly inserting a wiggling 8-inch eel into his backside to treat his constipation.
The live fish bit through the man’s colon before getting stuck in his abdomen, doctors said.
The unnamed patient claimed he decided to use the creature to solve his bowel problems after following a folk remedy.
