👉 Maggotry is a term used in science and medicine to describe the phenomenon of a small, round organism called a "maggot" that can be found in various parts of the body. The term is derived from the Latin word "magus," which means "small" or "little." Maggots are commonly found on the skin, under nails, and in the mouth, causing discomfort and irritation. The term "maggotry" was first used by Carl Linnaeus
