What Do Presence Of Worms In The Fingernails Indicate?
i have white things coming out from under my fingernails, cuticles they look like little worms actually there are a few diffrnt things some looke like little c;lear worms other stuff is whitw andkinda resembles a carnation or cailiflour i believe the white is bacteria and the worms im not sure this is very painfuli also had this on my leg my chin and jaw line on my nose andone on my arm i had what looked lijke bugs coming out of the ones on my face and on my chest my sister in law got me on worm wood, coloidial silver ans a immune booster wich has helped immensley. but aq few days ago i had another bad bout .i believe the worms are mostly dead and trying to get out and they are comoing out of my fingers... when they were alive they are very fast and hard to catch and if you dont have a good hold on it until you kill it it will run back to any open wound or under fingernails. i know this sounds crazy but im not crazy and it is very real and quite frightening. i have never experienced pain this bad as when trying to get one out. i dont have a creditcard so nevermind
For this time, you really do not need a credit card as this answer is for free.
As you are having these tiny white things coming out from your fingers after deworming therapy you had, I advise to take some of them as a sample, put in a sterile container (you can buy at your local store) and send to the lab for further confirmation.
One sample should keep to let see to your dermatologist. He/she will help you further to determine if it is really worm or anything else, and for best treatment strategy.
In other words, will determine if you need medical therapy or psychological assisted therapy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
