Some people are stupid enough to copy or mimic anything they see on TV. It's pathetic really. When I was in school there was a show called miami vice. It was popular no doubt. I watched it. All of the sudden people started wearing their shoes without socks to mimic the crockett character. MAN!!! what a stench.

They use leeches to reduce swelling, haematoma, after surgery to keep the blood flowing to certain areas. Leeches are now used all over the world. they have chemicals that keep blood flowing and also remove clots. Very good animals to have.
Microsurgeons today are adept at reattaching severed body parts, such as fingers. They usually have little trouble attaching the two ends of the arteries, because arteries are thick-walled and relatively easy to suture. The veins, however, are thin-walled and especially difficult to suture, particularly if the tissue is badly damaged. The surgeon can get blood to flow in the reattached arteries but not veins. With the venous circulation severely compromised, the blood going to the reattached finger becomes congested, or stagnant; the reattached portion turns blue and lifeless and is at serious risk of being lost. It is precisely in such cases that leeches are summoned.
Most common leaches used in medicine are:
HIRUDO MEDICINALIS
European Medicinal Leech
HIRUDINARIA MANILLENSIS
Asian Medicinal Leech
HAEMENTERIA GHILIANII
Amazon Leech

It is just a symbol for people who are not independent. People don't actually put leeches on themselves.
