Today we will respond to a slightly disturbing message we received from one of our readers. She wrote, “I have what feels like worms under the skin on my scalp. I can feel them moving and can feel them with my fingers. The worms move under the skin but also in 2-3 holes in my scalp. The worms roll in my hair and then my hair tangles under my skin. It has made a bubbly scar around my head. I also have some hair spine-like pieces embedded in my skin. I have a theory of when & how I got them but I would like more information. ”
