There is a story behind it, it is said that this fish lives in the hot spring of Sibas province in central Turkey. It is said that 400 years ago a tired shepherd fell into this hot spring. A thousand small fish caught him. This healed all his wounds. Since then the name of this fish has become 'doctor's fish'. From eczema to fatigue, this fish can cure everything.

It usually lives in mild freshwater. This fish species is mainly found in the Central Eurasia region. This fish is commercially known as doctor fish or doctor fish all over the world. But sometimes this fish is also called nibble fish. More than a decade ago, this fish has been used in the treatment of various skin diseases such as psoriasis, eczema, etc. in Turkey and some others   countries of the Middle East. This method has gained great popularity nowadays. Even Bangladesh and such treatment methods exist.

A small species of fish eats dead skin on human feet. As a result, pedicures are done with this fish all over the world in foot care. By eating away the dead skin, new skin is visible on the feet, making the feet more beautiful and attractive. This fish is placed in a small tank or bath tub and the patient is kept with his feet immersed in it. After a certain period of time it eats away the dead skin on the feet. This is how this treatment is completed. Moreover, many times treatment is done with the help of this fish to remove dead skin on the face or other parts of the body.

Although this method is quite popular nowadays. But it has several risks. There is even evidence of contracting infectious diseases through the use of this treatment. For this reason, skin treatment with this fish has been banned in the US, UK, Canada and some parts of Europe.

Several studies have shown that pedicures with this fish can cause a variety of bacterial infections. The results presented below-

A 2013 report published in Springer's journal Infection showed that Staphylococcus aureus bacterial infection occurred after a fish pedicure with garra rufa fish.
