According to the boy, the fish slipped into his penis while he was cleaning his aquarium at home.Professor Vezhaventhan and Professor Jeyaraman, who treated the boy and later wrote a paper on the case, explained: "While he was cleaning the fish tank in his house, he was holding a fish in his hand and went to the toilet for passing urine. When he was passing urine, the fish slipped from his hand and entered his urethra and then he developed all these symptoms.

you know that in some tropical freshwaters there is a tiny fish which actually DOES swim into yr peehole, dies, and basically rots yr dick off

oh wait, it is the candiru, just mentioned

Not an urban legend: I recall seeing some cable show featuring actual endoscopy footage of one of those being removed from a guy, followed by the guy in question being taken someone to confront the actual preserved fish that was removed, which was cringe-inducingly large
They also have close relatives that will punch through the skin of pretty much anything in the water and eat it from the inside in no time flat, leaving a hole-punched outer skin with nothing but bones inside

― james k polk, Monday, 18 May 2009 21:40 (sixteen years ago)
i meant the bit about it dying and rotting dick off; the internet claims that a candiru has only made one validated urethral entrance (presumably the one you saw), and manhood was intact iirc
that other fish you reference sounds like a right old beast

This story has a real "slipped and fell directly on the wine bottle" feel to it

I seem to recall reading a thread about another adolescent Indian boy who had flies coming out his penis, I think it was either here, or in a nightmare I'd imagine.

Candiru (English and Portuguese) or candirú (Spanish), also known as canero or toothpick fish, are parasitic freshwater catfish of a number of genera in the family Trichomycteridae. They are found in the Amazon River and have a reputation among the natives as the most feared fish in its waters, even over piranha.......It is believed that they are able to enter a human urethra only when it is expanded during urination.

i'm sure i remember reading somewhere that jacking off with some sort of implement down your urethra is a thing.
