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?

If you agaitate the 'worms' (I am not sure exactly what they are to me they look more like hair/fiber when they come out but they do look worm like when embedded in the skin or when an infection is present) you will make sores and infection spread, and picking will drive it very deap. BAD IDEA. I made that mistake with a leison on my forehead. Right between the eyes! And it's been a year and a half and I can't get it properly clear and will return if I consume alcohol or sugar. All the others have resolved. The scarring does too eventually, when all the material comes out. It's not really scarring although it looks that way. Well most of it. It won't look as bad as yu think anyway. I'm finding the white pigmentaton from old sores is fading now too. Seems it goes from being a bump, to a hole (sometimes horrible shapes in between), to flattening out with a purple scar, then turns white. I've been using the illumask with good results. It's infrared and good for healing, scarring, lines etc.
I change up my facial regime as 'they' get used to products and come back, though not as bad as before. Black african soap is very good, scrub made from coconut oil, dead sea salt, magnesium, and a few drops of citronella and peppermint oil is also very effective.Morgellons causes bacterial and fungal cross infections so when those are especially prevalent I'll use a mixture of phisoderm wash and selsun blue shampoo on my face with kenacomb cream applied after then coconut oil. Applying organic milk to the face after cleansing is very effective. Rinse well or it will smell! Goat lotion or Moo Goo udder cream is also a good moisturiser and vit c serum very helpful for healing and the creepies don't like it. A mask of tumeric and coconut oil will lift the 'worms' out but don't pull them! Let them rise out and rinse off. Do the mask at night so by your morning shower your face won't be stained yellow. Clay mask will draw things out when you can't be bothered turning into an oompa looma. A misting spray of salt and a little peppermint will keep your face clean and clear during work, and add a little apple cider vinegar for when your at home. It's prob a little smelly for public lol!
It's not just a skin issue though so internal treatment very important. Treating topically may improve the appearance but it will always come back and likely get worse over time. This issue is different for everyone due to the complicated nature of the illness and I am in no means saying that I am a Dr or anything but can share what has helped me. I would also like to add I am not yet rid of this but MUCH improved, had I known earlier what it was I may have been able to catch it before it spread, causing me all kinds of trouble.
MSM, zinc, liquid silica (also a very calming and clearing face mask) kelp, chlorella, vit b, c and a, l lysene and various amino acids such as NAC have got the condition under control. In severe earlier stages of the illness Doxycycine was the only antibiotic that helped but only use if REALLY needed as the fungal aspect of Morgellons can flourish if the intestinal flora is badly damaged. olive leaf with an added probiotic is good, and regular dosing prevents things getting out of control. Eating fermented foods and organic, no starch or sugar a must. Lots of info online on various sites about this so I won't explain the why's etc.
I know this is a mamoth post and a lot of info but like I said, I am posting in hope someone may see this who is suffering with these symptoms, and not have to go through what I have. I was an actress, model and dancer before I got ill and this has been soul destroying, but it does get better with time and dedication and for me my faith in God. xx

Mine started 2 years ago 10/01/13. At the moment I don't want to take up time & space with all the gruesome details from the beginning. But, at present time my scalp is crawling with tiny white worms just under the skin & fearlessly & fiercely attach themselves to me especially at the hair shaft. I have them all over my forehead too. Well, basically they are all over my face. They are in my nose & sinuses, as well as in both ears, eyelids, brows, around & in my eye sockets. My torso, arms, hands, legs, and feet.
I've seen over 20 doctors. Same story as far as doctors go, they dismiss any and all possibility that there are actuall worms present anywhere on my being. I'm told by all doctors that they believe that I'm feeling what I'm feeling & seeing what I'm seeing because my mind is playing tricks on me and my skin is in on it, and that the brain & skin communicate. The skin is such a large organ & has a lot to do with how we perceive the world. So my neurotransmitters have gone a little haywire along with my nerve endings. So the crawling sensations are real, (remember this is according to them) from nerve endings that were damaged & did not grow back correctly. So, when that happens my brain & skin tell my mind, worms & I see worms. Please know I'm not buying into any of their academic bull. And, know I was a pedestrian who was struck by a car in 2008. I'm fused from C2 - T1 and L3-S1. My left shoulder was also replaced. So my head it attached to my body by 3 titanium rods 14" long with 18 screws. My lower back has 2 titanium rods 18" long & 36 screws. Me left shoulder joint is made out of metal doorknob looking thing that sits in a plastic sleeve. You would not know any of this by looking at me. I appear to look & move just as I did before being struck a car. So you see their conclusion for the diagnosis they insist on giving me is based on all of the above plus the shock and truma from the accident, then surgery. I think their diagnosis is myopic, limiteted, but mostly lazy. I'm sure they think themselves academicly brilliant & ever so clever. I have tried & tried for another opinion but once they find his diagnosis they are sold. They can't understand why I won't just take one of their new psychotropic meds so I can feel better& stop all the misery & suffering I insist on putting myself through.
I don't think I need to go into all that goes into knowing & living with live worms of questionable origin invading your being. The worry of the damage being caused, the constant itchy, crawling sensations. How sick whatever all that comes them makes you feel. Plus the intense pain that goes with whatever they are internally wrecking.
I just wanted to introduce myself into this thread for tonight.
I have some questions for next time. If I find answers I will happily share. Goodnight & Gooodluck

I will give the derm office a call. When I left there they insisted on making me a follow up appointment with the same derm. I asked to be scheduled with the derm I was suppose to have seen or anyone else. The lady kept telling me that it would be months before I could get in with another derm. I will go somewhere ( ER IF I HAVE TO ) to get my eyes checked out. They are so bad right now. My eyelashes are falling out. A couple of years ago I would not have hesitated to get help. I would not have put up with the derm like I did. Thans again.
