Are Burning, Stinging Sensation, Fatigue And Pulling Of Hairs Signs Of Morgellons Disease?
Regarding possibly morgellons disease
Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you.
I am Dr kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist). I have noted your concern and I have viewed the images.
Morgellons disease is a possibility - the constellation of your symptoms like burning, stinging, crawling sensation and pulling of threads /hairs, fatigue etc seem to match morgellons disease. I suggest a psychological evaluation to explore any underlying psychiatric issues like depression. Antipsychotics such as risperidone, amisulpride, or olanzapine are effective in morgellons disease.
However, for skin lesions I would suggest a course of an oral antibiotic e.g either Amoxicillin or Cephalexin 500mg, thrice daily for a week. In addition I suggest you to apply a topical antibiotic e.g either Neosporin ointment or Mupirocin 2 % ointment, twice daily.
Regards

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
You can continue with triple antibiotic ointment after you clean the area with peroxide. In addition I would suggest you to take an oral antibiotic e.g either Amoxicillin or Cephalexin for a week. Try not to manipulate with the skin lesions.
