A reader recently sent us two photographs and asked, “What is your opinion of these pictures?” He also mentioned that the creature is very good at disguising itself by using hair and the adhesive from band aids. He said that lab tests show highly elevated B – 12. Finally, he wants to know the mortality rate. Here is the first photograph he sent us:
The creature appears to be flat and brown colored, but it is hard to understand what exactly we are looking at. We think it might be on our reader’s skin, but that is just an assumption based on what we can see in the photograph. We don’t know the exact size or shape. The other photograph shows the arm of our reader covered in open sores:
This looks quite painful! We understand that our reader is dealing with some health issues that are probably quite stressful. Unfortunately, we cannot be of much help to him. Since we aren’t medical professionals, we aren’t certified to give medical advice to any of our readers. Also, we don’t feel comfortable speculating on a potential parasite infection since we don’t have enough information about the situation, or the expertise to diagnose or treat medical issues. We recommend that our reader make an appointment with a doctor as soon as possible to have his questions answered. Since he mentioned lab results, he may have already seen a doctor. If his doctor wasn’t able to provide the help or information our reader was seeking, we encourage him to see a travel infectious disease specialist. These professionals are often better equipped to treat elusive and mysterious cases. To find one in his area he can do an Internet search for “travel infectious disease specialist [his location]”.
To sum up, we received a message and some photographs from a reader who might be suffering from a parasite. We encourage our reader to visit a doctor as soon as possible!

Somewhat relieved I’m not alone and, most importantly, I’m not delusional or crazy.
My doctor (I live in Scotland, UK)treated me for scabies which did provide some relief (antibiotics + Permethrin with the latter being quite helpful on slowling the things down and calming the itch) but quickly turned his diagnosis into Morgellons as soon as I mentioned the word “hairs”. Yet my symptoms aren’t exactly Morgellons’ like: no fibres, just few hairs….and i never linked them to this thing before as alwaysthoight were cotton fibers or dogs hair; little crawling, primarily around my hands’ nails, accompanied by tunnel like marks underneath the nails, followed by exit wounds a few days after.
Little itch but very sharp -pinch like- pain when these things start to surface.
They were also almost always on my hands and, sporadically, on parts of my body I inadvertently touched with them; however, recently they moved into my nose quite stably making it hard to breath plus…. I can’t smell a thing.
I do pick (or dig better said) them out when I can (don’t mind the scars) and maybe that’s the reason I had them in cycles (3 weeks none, 2 weeks growing, 2-4 weeks all the symptoms, 2 weeks calm down, repeat)
Also, had them in all different shapes and forms from thorn-like elongate ones (0.8cm the longest, 0.5cm on average) to upside-down commas shaped, to multi-spike….but recently settled on upside-down commas ans teardrops (the most painful, of course).
However, now i’m finding a whole lot of different residues everywhere (but maybe before i wasn’t aware); in fact was through one of the pictures that, thankfully,I found this page.
Oh, one last thing: these things, whatever they are, cut through different materials: i got few tupperware with holes in them and those black upside-down commas embedded into the plastic itself, i also got them going through gaskets and soft plastic as well as the sealant round the tub and basin….with some clearly showing hairs attached to them (and it can’t be mine as i’m shaved)….
So, if someone’s got any type of info, update, kind word….please do not hesitate to share
Thanks all
I know EXACTLY how you feel! …I have tried sooo many things and get my my hopes up momentarily just to actually keep getting worse and more defeated making me want to end this nightmare myself. I wish we could all get together and make some noise but it’s difficult if no one cares to listen and I am convinced there’s a big cover up on the issue as all doctors in every state say the EXACT same thing. I want to get a hold of RFK Jr. Somehow as he was actually mocked by the media about confessing how he almost died about a parasitic worm in his brain! MAHA …..On this site though I found someone who is putting together info so hopefully we can get some kind of recognition and research going for it, a cure etc. ……I found her under the heading….Thoughts on “reader discovers a cure for parasites that look like hair” …Monique Brown – March 25th 2025. …it took me about an hour to fill out form about this and I got emailed a copy. At the end you have an option to submit pics. ….everyone needs to do this! …it would be awesome if admins for all about worms could direct sufferers of this to her post somehow? Just a thought. I would love to see this at least recognized by scientific community or doctors before I die from this soon.
WTF?!?! Are we going to just wait till it kills us or wish it would. WE NEED TO SCREAM LOUDER, WE NEED TO SCREAM TOGETHER!!! The doctors have only caused more damage to my fragile state of mind or make me question my reality. I get closer and closer to calling it everyday. If we rally may we will get results. What we are doing now isn’t working. Please we have to help ourselves, no one is coming to save us and it’s not going to go away on its own.
Pls can you help us
Email me please
Whats the cure?
I have the same thing. My head and face bother me most. My pores are huge, jawline swollen, lesions and scars all over my face. White stringy stuff in my blood. Vascular restriction. Auto immune disorder. I feel like I am going to die from this in the near future. I’m so tired.
Dealing with this for over 2 years now. The one thing that I do know is from what I see read and have been through personally there’s no hope. It takes you down physically mentally and emotionally it is ruined my social life it has ruined any kind of life I had. Doctors specialist they don’t want to acknowledge it or won’t for whatever reason. I’ve been losing my hair I’ve got bald patches and it just keeps getting worse I cannot get rid of it or make it stop I’ve tried over the counter medications I’ve tried prescription medications I’ve tried home remedies nothing gets rid of it. But if someone has miraculously found a solution I’m all ears I have thousands of pictures myself and it’s useless to show a doctor or physician of any sort.
I have been left hopeless helpless and feel like I’m just going to end up dying from it.

Did anyone find any answers to what this is ? I have all the same symptoms, pictures etc as everyone else and no clue what to do, workr
I have the exact same thing. I recently discovered I have several different types of worms that live underneath my skin. Recently we have been getting sand flies that usually stay in tropical regions like Central and South America but they have recently traveled into Texas and Florida because of climate change. I do know that I have Contagious Leishmaniasis . I also have roundworms hookworms some type of lice that is not regular head lice these are black. I also have larvae that come out of my mouth constantly worms that come out of my nose ears and eyes. I have deep pitted sores that are very painful. They itch so bad sometimes I think I’m literally going mad trying not to scratch them. No matter what you’re going to be left with ungodly scarring. The first case was reported to CDC in 2005 it’s now becoming more prevalent especially in the southern states. I got it after two bouts of coronavirus back to back that have my immune system very depleted. I live in Northeast Florida but I’ve never heard of these things before or experienced anything remotely like it in my life. I would not wish this on anyone. There needs to be more information on the subject and also where to go to get help. I still have yet to get rid of mine have been to two parasitic doctors and a dermatologist and yet nothing. I was so desperate that I took ivermitting from the feed store that was made for horses out of desperation to get rid of these things. It did help but some of the parasites are not faced by it. I tried calling the CDC and I was told to go to my local health department that’s where I’m going this week. God bless you all and good luck. Please Google Leishmania. It’s better to know what you have or not have then to not know it all.
PS I’m not sure exactly what form of this parasite that I had but one is lethal. I’m so scared.
I have the SAME thing going on! What looks to be horse hair worms… but also thick worms under my skin, and the worms under my skin push the hairs up through my follicles (on my hair and body) so when I try to get rid of that is in on my head, they all travel to my head (and face) almost if they are trying to rebuild what I try to kill. They take over clump of my hair (almost looks like snakes when then move. You can see them push sections of it up. I have so many pictures ( and videos) if what has com off my off my head, out of my skin, out of my nose and mouth, even in my eye. Every day is so much worse than the last. I am literally begging for help
