Worms in the Face

Posted , 854 users are following.

Hi All,  I dont know if anyone has come across this.  I have a worm infestation in my face.  They travel around under the skin leaving tracks and bursting holes into my skin.  they create glass like balls that split the skin open and move around my skin with ease. 

I first reported it 3 months ago and the doctors totally ignored me treating me for a secondary infection that was caused by open wounds in my face.  They have given me 4 courses of antibiotics treating the wrong infect but totally ignored waht I was telling ithem about the worms. 

The worms whatever they are are very sharp and whereever they travel through in my face the skin collapses, leaving it like plastercine and it causes tiny splinters that are as sharp as anything that inbed themselves in the inside and outside of my skin right down to the lowest skin level. My skin is also producing a clear sticky substance which feels like little shards of glass if I touch it.  All in all, it really couldnt be much worse except for the fact they have made a hole around my mouth which they can look out of.  I am totally sane!

I am in pieces.  I've been telling the doctors what it is and they have totally ignored me.  Even refusing to refer after an A & E i visited confirmed I needed to be referred as the lesions had been on my face for so long.   

I discovered I had private medical care through my company which now thank god means I've seen my first dermatologist.  He's referred me to another dermatlogist that apparently knows more about things in the skin who I'm yet to see.  Even though he's now put me in the right direction, I'm not convinced he was sure it is worms.  I can pull 1/2 inch worms out of my skin bit by bit.  They look like thread worms and never come out intact, you pull little bits off of them.  It leaves worm shape dents in my face and they feel like little match sticks under the skin.  Nobody is taking me seriously as people dont really get worms in the face. 

They have totally destroyed me skin and I have bad scaring.  I have never had acne and had no scaring.   This has all been caused in the last 3 months.  I dread to think how many are alive in there now they'v been left so long.

Has anyone ever heard of anything like this?

    well I've done a 10 day purge for parasites with neem, black seed oil and cod liver oil and now i have a bunch of dead parasites coming to the surface on my hands, my face, nose and even on my lips but at least they are dead... quite sure the neem and black seed oil work so find a naturopath pharmacist have them put you on neem and black seed ..oil.

      Was it u saying this was just a fungal infection, that the infection u had, had gone away but keeps coming back?

      My theory is this is a fungal infection with some sort f fly ( the fly i think is either an aphid or a fungal knat) both of these flys are attracted by fungus.

      So i used to think get rid of the fly and ill get rid of the fungus (im like you, i can get rid of this and heal up but it keeps coming back)

      So ive just recently changed to get rid of he fungus and ill get rid of the fly,

      This is paying big dividends but learning what triggers the re infection is the killer cause as it seems everytime you touch your skin you pick up the fungus and move it, everytime you touch something else you transfer it including when u sit down.

      Lets start from the top, Ive had this for nearly 15 years now so literally everything i own, clothes, furniture, bedding everything has the fungus on it & the worst thing is getting rid of it and what your going to have to do and what products u need to use to get rid of this are very specific.

      Anti bacterial & clhorine based products are not going to kill this, using these products is the reason why u keep getting re infected. They dont kill the fungus.

      BTW for the record, The fungus is white or clear when it drys which is why u cant see it.

      Cleaning routine for yourself

      I find a shower once every 12 hours minimizes the effects, I use a lite cotton hand body scrubber (Its like a glove but made of cotton) head to toe scrub & once finished i use a fungal shampoo all over letting it sit on my body for 10 mins before washing it off.

      Dont bite your nails, Dont pick your nose, try not to touch your body a hell of a lot if you can, keep your nails short, shorter hair will make it eaiser to manage.

      Cleaning routine for your clothes

      I soak all my clothes and shoesfor a couple of hours in cold water with an anti bacterial / anti fungal soaking solution then cold wash in the machine. Hot water with make the fungus grow.

      Sleeping / sitting

      I find myself sitting or sleeping on a towel ( this must be changed afer 12 hours of use or the fungus will re grow) Throw in the wash afterwards.

      Hard surfaces / computers / door handles

      U can use a damp cloth on most things just make sure you use paper towel to dry it afterwards, mosture will encourage the fungus to grow ( make sure you only use the paper towel on one surface then throw it away otherwise you will transfer it to the next surface.

      I like to use disinfecting wipes to clean my computer keyboard before & after every use.

      Give this a try & see if this finally cures u, I'm having upto 7 days of bliss with no itching at all, the flys are all but gone & when i do have a breakout it only lasts a day or so and only very mild compared to what it has been

      Get rid of the fungus, Get rid of the fly.

      Just become aware of what gets the fungus to start re growing & what u need to do to kill it.

    All the similar conditions I've read and photos I've seen are they really worms? I'm concerned now how do I explain this to my family. . any suggestions

      . our bodies have bacteria that we need and every one of us have face mites...they are passed to us by our parents and they live on our faces our whole lives but they are actually beneficial to us... they live in our pores on the root of the hairs and eat the guck our bodies produce and help keep our skin from a build up of oils.... there is such a thing that can cause a problem and that is if they multiply to fast but that is very rare...

      tell them to get real and live with it...... have you had your immune system compromised? If so then that is why other parasites can manage to live on humans... mine was weakened by the chemotherapy I had 5 years ago..i can see the female and the egg bed it's made but it is very hard to get out, even if it's dead..i have ingested aNeem, blackseed oil in a cod liver oil base for ten days that the naturopathic pharmacist said would kill any parasite in me..

      I'm trying to figure out how to work this keyboard disappears what I'm writing... anyway I scrolled down and saw some photos and yes I could say some of mine look like that but that was just but that was just build-up of skin and hair and other stuff that dried up in what I had picked at...i was given a gel gor my face but also told no harsh cleaners, a soap and lotion was given to me her office had samples and said I can buy them without a script and add drops of tee tree oil to them because the tea tree has an antibiotic effect..my family is good they were mad because I picked and made it worse. then I googled something and I saw this site and freaked out, deep down I couldn't imagine me having worms in my face plus it being cold not outside much and those mites hate light that's why they comr out at night. thank you so for understanding

      Hi Lane - Just a quick response on "rare" part of your post - Yes it was thought to be rare that "demodex gone wild" was rare - that is out of date now. Again the mass amount of scientific (used loosely) articles on delusional parasitosis outnumbers newer studies and clinical evidence that what was once thought to be delusional may have been a misdiagnosis (no physician wants to hear that term or admit this of course, nor do the physicians who built their reputations on research and conclusions of delusional patients (the renowned Mayo clinic a major contributor towards delusional diagnosis in past years. IMO that sort of "protect your research" thinking is a major reason many suffer today. Logic would lead one to think something else may be really the cause though, and unfortunately the steps that SHOULD be taken to accurately conclude a case is delusional are very rarely taken - that includes taking every step/test/etc to first see if there is a real underlying non-mental malady involved. Reality has been docs don't have time to do that and 10-1 or more ratio of delusional diagnosis reports pop up on their computers for the one that shows it might be a real infection. That is improving greatly today as more research proving delusional might be the more rare case.

    i go back tuesday to my doctor.hopefully i get my referral to the CDC..

    this round of hatching ive got huge grey and white grub type parasite everywhere now..itried to pull one out and when i got it about a inch out it came to the surface and i swear on my kids it was at least 4 inches long and shaped like a flat long cigar shape except the end part was twice as wide as the front .i mite have got it out or part way out but it scared me so bad i let go and it went back in.but now Theres two more smaller ones hanging out by the hole..i noticed if u shine a flashlight on the hole they come to the surface. and from what ive see in the holes. ive got one hell of a infestation of three diff types of things. i pray cdc has seen this.ive searched and come close to them but not quite. its been 6 months and feel the damage theyre causing.

    shoot my guy has 2 types of them and my poor kitty has it too.i use ivermectcin and pink benidryl to keep it calm to keep them from biting as much..bf tried albenzol and it didnt work..next is neem oil

      Benzyl benzoate is used by world heath org globally to treat skin ectoparasites (demodex included).

      I was diagnosed 5 years ago as having a demodex infection thru simple skin scrapping by my dermatologist, and I was treated for 18 months with only some positive results (seemed to slow down expansion but never eradicated the infection/infestation).

      Lyme has come up positive in tests for me (plus "Bartonella") , and may be THE or one of the underlying issues.

      Morgellons, that used to be thought a delusional issue, has now been linked to Lyme (95%+ of Morgellons patients were found to have Lyme in 4 separate studies conducted in three diff countries).

      Back to Bezyl Benzoate - Simple otc versions available for dogs - must be extremely careful not to get into eyes. Spraying onto sterile gauze and dabbing skin a must on face. a second coat after first dries the usual instruction - leave on for 12 hrs - Seems to be only thing that gets immediate results but again MUST BE CAREFUL to avoid eyes
