It's a parasite and transmitted through mosquito bites and leads to lymph nodes enlargement and drainage of lymphatic fluid leading to excess collection of lymphatic fluid, specially in the legs and irreversible changes looking like legs of elephants. Reason for calling the disease, elephantiasis cure for the disease is total though cosmetic changes remain for life.
