What is the deal with all the parasites on your face? That sounds absolutely horrifying
yeah, it's usually a sign of immune load, in my case, it's teh combination of celiac, and decades of alcohol and smoking. there can be other causes but if you look up "red mange" or "demodecidosis" the "parasite" is not really a problem normally, it's when the whole system is broken that its lifestyle, amplified by excess food supply, compounds existing issues with more issues that feed back.
those bugs first got my attention in 2019 just before covid. it's the result of years of eating wheat, in my case, out of surviival necessity and zero money. what kicked it off was actually 7 months of prison food, that led to a chronic long term immune panic situation.
anyway, i'm dealing with it. controlling their population is not so much about eliminating them as reducing their compounding effect. outside of that, i'm just doing what i need to do - eliminating all allergens, not drinking, not smoking, and doing my best to maintain enough income to keep fixing the problem. :>)
