Treatment for elephantiasis includes:
antiparasitic drugs, such as diethylcarbamazine (DEC), mectizan, and albendazole (Albenza)

It depends on the cause of Elephantiasis. If it is due to Filariasis, then she can have recurrent lymphangitis and associated fever and leg pain. This can be prevented by taking a medicine called Banocide, once every 6 months. Please consult a general physician who can assess the condition and prescribe the correct dosage and duration of the medication.

The medical examination for working abroad usually includes checks on general health, infectious diseases, physical fitness, and mental health. As long as the individual meets the health and fitness requirements set by the country of employment, the absence of testicles alone should not be a barrier to passing the medical exam.

Vaving one testicle since birth should not automatically disqualify you from passing a medical exam for a job in kuwait. As long as you meet the general health and fitness requirements set by the employer or the country’s regulations, having this condition should not be a hindrance to your employment prospects.
