Re: Looking for answers... PLEASE HELP
1) I wouldn't decide that I have any
parasite and seek treatment options unless it's been identified by an accredited medical laboratory.
2) Pinworms are only seen in the intestine and stool samples, not under the skin. 3) The real "filarial" worms that are seen under the skin are only found in Africa so it's not likely you have them if you live in the U.S.A.
4) Hookworm is in the U.S.A. and it can enter through the skin of the feet if you walk around outside alot bare footed.
5) Although in common medical use and even as a home remedy a couple hundred years ago,
Turpentine is an organic solvent that is POISON. Apparently, it was effective for eradicating intestinal parasites. Breathing in
Turpentine fumes can cause lung spasms for asthmatics plus it can cause kidney damage. There are occupational safety exposure limits for turpentine.
