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?

      i had a lot of downy hair growing on my cheeks and jaw line too. from what i understand its your skin's defense mechanism. mine has almost nearly receded back. last month i reached the 6 year point with the disease and fortunately whatever species this tapeworm is is almost gone. but my treatment is very involved, very labor intensive. im not scarring and if i were burdened by "delusional parasitosis" then i would be very scarred. have you loaded any pics?

      Hang in there!

      Many are or have been in your shoes - hang in there. I'm posting a comment on the only treatment I have consistently found gets rid of at least the surface/skin issues, which I am certain everyone here will agree is a or the top priority in at least having the ability to function in public without feeling like you look like a leprosy sufferer (or covered with bandaids or makeup, etc).

      4 years of this garbage, and only thing that helped get rid of lesions has been "Happy Jack SARDEX II benzyl benzoate spray.

      Leave it to veterinary/animal cures to come up with something that actually works.

      I can't say it cures the underlying issues. And maybe its combining with internal meds to work, but NOTHING works as fast or as thoroughly.

      This stuff is strong and one must be VERY careful using on face because not even a mist drop should get into your eyes or an any mucus membrane. Use a clean hand to make barrier between eyes are spray area or spray onto clean paper towel and dap thoroughly on and around infected areas. Do not use on wet skin.

      Let first coat dry (10-15 mins) and then apply second coat as directed.

      Let it stay on skin 12 hours if possible.

      If going to sweat, remove/wash off first (warm water soap and final alcohol wipe required to remove petroleum base). Otherwise it will drip or get in eyes and although ive never had any perm damage, it is painful temp blinding experience. Well documented testimonies on this. (baling soda warm water wash helpful if some does get into eyes).

      Just went back to this yesterday. 36 hours of miraculous improvement.

      This time, I'm staying with the treatment two weeks past time skin looks completely rid of lesions.

      Just be careful to avoid eyes.

      FYI, I've tried pure medical grade benzyl benzoate and it is not effective. It's the inert petroleum ingredients that get the BB into and under the epidermis layer that make this work - you can see it absorb in instantly. 1936 Dr. article on turpentine and BB effectiveness on skin mite infections was standard cure for decades. Although my issues look like platyhelminths and SCOLEX tapeworm eggs/ovum, SARDEX II works. At 27% strength, it's like bringing out the heavy artillery

      One more note, I was diagnosed (scrapings and microscopic ID) and treated in another city by Dermatologist for Demodex infestation. Dr. threw a lot of meds at this and when asked for referral in new city, said glad to write note but you need an infectious disease specialist to figure this out.

      Got the delusional diagnosis by Dermatologist in new city and that was the end of the trail as that info is shared inside med portals and ID docs refused to even set appt after.

      It is devastating to be refused help. I've since sought help in big NE City where well informed physicians are more enlightened

      Mitee16319 & Nicolmac

      After 15 years of searching for an answer to what morgellons could possibly be & i think i may have an answer & im working on a way to beat it totally.

      I believe its a fungal over growth thats attracting some sort of small fly & its dropping its larvae on your skin to feed.

      This is creating a triple threat - Fungal, bacterial & accidental parasite.

      This is called an accidental myasis & u will never cure it by curing one of these at a time, its a lengthy process of fighting all of it back.

      I have been using an antimicrobial hand gel (use google image search, its the blue liquid in the first picture of the search) This is what doctors use & recommend to kill all bugs in surgical situations.

      I used to get this lumps & puss bubbles all over and now i have all but cleared them up just using the antimicrobial hand gel - i used this everywhere to cure all my wounds.

      This cures the bacterial & some of the fungal growth on the skin.

      However i am at my 3rd month & im now getting what seems to be the small fly going in & out my nose & leaving eggs in my hair & on the back of my neck.

      My theory here is the fungus has gone inside my nose & lungs & its still attracting the bug to drop its eggs or larvae .

      I have formulated a plan to get it out of my nose & lungs its taking time & im going to come back her in another month & let you know how im going.

      This is the biggest step in my 15 years of suffering, I had lesions from head to toe & now all i am is itchy around my nose & eyes but i have no lumps or pussy spotsimage

      I believe the larvae is in the image i have attached to this post.

      People please note, the larve wont die, ive tried everything not to mention they will just keep coming back so dont bother with worming meds...

      The best way to get rid of the larve is with a scrubbing brush in the shower, dont touch them with your fingers, u just move them around

      You will need to get rid of the fungus & this who problem with solve its self

      I'm working on removing the larve & fungas from my mouth with drinking water with a few drops of SSKI in it.

      Im working on removing the fungus & larve from my eyes using a few drops of SSKI in water then flushing my eyes using a eye wash cup.

      Im working on flushing my nose out using a nose wash bottle with the salts that come with it & a few drops of SSKI in it, IM getting huge amounts of what i presume is a green fungus every wash or so & the itchiness is slowing down.

      Im open to everyones questions & there is a fair bit to cleaning this up i havent mentioned cause i still havent clened it up completely but after 2 months this is the most promising news ive had in 15 years

      I am happy for you that this hand gel is working! However, I have been using antibiotic cream, fungal creams etc and soak the lesions in 91% alcohol?! Thus, why would antimicrobial hand gel work any differently?!

      I WISH I WAS HAVING YOUR SUCCESS!!! GOD BLESS YOUR LUCK!

      wow - i just recently came up with the same hypothesis so i am glad to hear that your thoughts...i have been drinking mms + dmso (using topically as well) and i feel that it has helped quite a bit - even as a deterrent for whatever fly species this is. i use a prescription edta in my nasal rinse and believe that has helped with my sinuses - also as i mentioned in a previous post - whole milk on the head and body - it dries up the larvae and they brush right out of hair and scalp. using the mms in the bath has caused my skin to peel layers in the areas that have been the biggest problems (private parts, scalp, face ) . thanks for the info - i am anxious to hear how it goes for you - do you think sleeping with an eye ointment might help with issues in the eyes?

      Hi Betty00118, i was recommended the antimicrobial (Please note this is not the same as Anti Bacterial) by a nurse after having a colonoscopy. The nurse saw the lessions and recommended it straight after surgery.

      And after 15 years this is the best my skin has been.

      Can i ask, have u had any tests to confirm a fungal infection? I did & it came back with pityriasis versicolor. The cream & shampoo i used contains econazole although i found this didn't work very well till i healed up all the lessions & i can tell u its not going to work 100% till you ge rid of the fly thats causing the myasis. The flys & there larvae are bringing the fungus to u hence why your not getting better.

      I think i finally solved my problems completely today too, I had been having some weird stuff going on in my head around the right side ear, It felt like something was living in there coming and going, I had a CT scan done & of course nothing showed up.

      So after randomly having a google, i cam across a story of a lady who had been thru hell trying to get a diagnosis for a bug in her ear, she said she had tried & failed with her doctor for 5 years before one day, it just come out & this got me thinking what do doctors do to remove bugs from peoples ears?

      Its pretty simple, use either vegetable or baby oil , just tip it in till the ear is full & leave it sit for 5 mins, This will suffocate the larve/fly.

      As i stated before, Get rid of the fly/larve & u will get rid of this nasty infection.

      Once u get rid of the fly use the econazole again to kill the remaining fungus & continue to use the Antimicrobial till all the wounds are gone.

      The fungas & the wounds are whats attracting the fly/lavea in the first place.

      I hope this helps everyone. Please feel free to msg me if u have questions

      that looks like what came out of my skin,exactly. i can see one far end, 2 suckers on the scolex. a calcified taenia larva. flies were attracted to me because of the debris coming out of my skin.

      had read your reply back when you first posted it, for the first time SOMETHING was making some sort of sense. I mean all themo other things being posted as possible wasn't for me. I am a homebound agoraphobic and no one else who has been near me has anything wrong with them.

      Anyway I have been using A LOT of rubbing Alcohol, Peroxide, antibacterial ointment baby powder with aloe, & essential oils. All of which would have their own level of effectiveness that would constantly change.

      Well I have added the Apple Cider Vinegar. And instantly there was a decrease in symptoms. It did wonders on my clothes when I had to do my laundry. Now it's not all gone, I have no more in my face but still struggle with scalp/hair, and a couple main spots on my body. So I'm supper happy about that so thank you!

      My problems are mostly internal now. My bowl movement s are mostly made up of this stuff, & possibly it's eggs. Then what is coming out during that time off the month. It's getting thicker with purple/dark brown wormy things. I don't know what to do

    I I started out that way as well the shards in the spikes is that you're talkin about where the most painful I could not understand it I got past that point until I could no longer and you know feel them and and then I made sure I I continue to just dragged slowly like pull down those what it looks like where they're crawling around I'll ease them down until they'll decide to stop to a hard point and then from there if it if you make an opening and it might make another opening somewhere else has started the very bottom one because that's where it's going to want to come out and then that's the sharpest point is up above and if it gets really really hard and you can and it looks like it's going to flight just keep it lubricated preferably in its own lubrication don't let it dry up because then you're basically screwed and and go from there and then the shards will go away and then you're just going to develop like they're going to be like in puckering things and I'm just a night I just start talking to him I make jokes with them and I'll say you tell me which direction I have to go to make all this work sometimes they meet up with each other and I can go from there sometimes when you know you can't get from one direction like you're supposed to you just got to do the best you can and out and in and wait and in another little opening will will make one will you manage to get it out I'm almost perfectly clear it's like you said the little soft spots that are left there are the most vulnerable so if you see any little white dot or anyting just make sure that you can get it out immediately with the very least amount of force so that that's what I've been working with I also did get a particular lightest cream from Amazon a body wash and I'm using any fungal cream with tea tree oil and the Vaseline on works better than the antibiotic cream for the simple that the antibiotic cream tends to dry up quicker than the Vaseline and it seems to thin skin when you start noticing the little bubbles that's basically that's when you're going to see them the little red you know the Rollie pollie that's going to look like the worm so that's your best bet and I'd like to know how that works out for you but I have I had to do my best. Custom out I'll tell him how you're doing a good job you know thanks for working with me today and dumb and then sometimes I don't know whether I'm supposed to stop but I feel like it's too deep or or whatever and I'll say I'll say a prayer please I hope I didn't stop to soon and then and you know I'll have to wait but generally gotten pretty good at this time just in a matter of when my family decided to agree with me then I'm not crazy so that's all I got and I hope everyone is doing well

      yes correct but where would be the most comfortable place for it to do that oh I know some some things need oxygen to survive and other things do not so that's what I am wondering I'm wondering that if it's not just in this for the titanium is in my face there cuz I did try suffocating it with some Vaseline and Band-Aids which did help open up that one cyst I had again on the other side of my face because the doctors did not want to Lance that because if they you know Lance that and got that closed up it would just open up somewhere else of course I don't want that I'd rather just have you know the that isolated and then you know they'll be working on the titanium in February to get me a 3D the water generated jaw so I'll but it happened before the actual titanium came out so it might have got into where my feeding tube was and creative BF uncle fungus bacteria which is now spread and created me to have scleroderma which is hardening of the skin which is very painful especially you know I lost a third of my mouth so thank you

      it it was supposed to read I'm getting a 3D donor bone generated jaw because the titanium broke it right down the middle which really did a lot of damage to my city kinds which is now really messed up my th ones and th2 and which is real painful can I have lost a third of my mouth so I have to have a lot of trouble eating but that's what I'm thinking but it was started happening actually before you know the titanium was coming out it might have went in there at the opening of my feeding tube back in 2013
