Hello lybrate-user, filariasis has got nothing to do with what you eat. If you are positive for filariasis infection you can effectively treat it with medicine. If you already got lymphedema associated with filariasis disease, then it can't be cured. Please get proper medical help.

For dryness of skin you should drink plenty of water throught out a day on regular basis, add more fruits n veggies to your diet. Increased stress also make you looks old that your actual age.

Filariasis spreads thr mosquitoes. So kindly make mosquito proof nets protection for doors; windows etc .use mosquito repellents and mosquito nets. Take the filaria suspected person to a health centre; do check-up and give treatment-if needed. Do cleaning of your neighbourhood and avoid open water collections and solid waste collections in your area. Give health education to community on filariasis control.
