AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They actually shoved a stunt turtle up his ass.

Maybe he was the Yamamano version of Ernest.

I think you smoke it out.

Wait... what?!

There's a native cure that involves ingesting an herbal solvent, but you probably just have to open the bladder with a surgery.

Infection of human beings is extremely rare, and they aren't even 100% certain if it's urine that motivates it to invade.

Funny... I just heard about this bastard on a science podcast a few days ago.
Yeah, surgery or *gulp* amputation is the best solution cuz you can die from this pretty quickly, as you might imagine.
But apparently, if it isn't immediately life-threathening, a shitload of vitamin C can soften the spines so you can piss it out. More about it here... http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A35669460

I googled for 'candiru smoke' and the first thing I found was my own post.

So I could be wrong.

How would you suggest one go about injecting smoke into a person's bladder via their urethra?

It was like, burning herbs near the peehole (a term I prefer). It had nothing to do with any sort of smoke-turkey-baster.

Also, this would be more for if the fish was lodged in the peehole (a term I prefer), rather than something that was actually supposed to travel up into the bladder. Damn, I wish I could remember where I read it.

Yea, you'd think he'd know better. You'd think he'd at least know not splash his own peewater in his face.

It really should have been a fat college kid on mushrooms or something. It doesn't make sense that a guy who grew up the river would let candirus into his bladder all willy nilly.

im highly amused you used willy nilly in this context

thats because i ate assssparagus!
