Hello,
Thanks for the concern. Demodex mites infection is usually asymptomatic but it may cause infection when they are present in large numbers. So you have to look out for it. You feel hair flickering and crawling like needle pricks in various parts of the body with red bumps and pimples so for you can take antihistaminics drug like chloropheniramine maleate and immediately consult dermatologist for further assistance.
