Abstract
Cysticercosis is a parasitic infection. It can involve any tissue in the body, the brain being the most common site. Intramuscular cysticercosis is rare, and few cases have been reported. Here, we are reporting a case of incidental finding of intramuscular cysticercosis in a 22-year-old male having a purely vegetarian diet presented with pain, swelling, and tingling sensation in the forearm without any other systemic involvement after taking Albendazole for unrelated reasons. Diagnosis of intramuscular cysticercosis remains a challenge and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intramuscular swelling, especially in endemic areas.
