I have watched a documentary on worms like you describe. I cant remember what they were called but they were mainly in Africa and South America. I will continue to look to see if I can find it. I do remember that the people would wait for the worm to make a hole in the skin and they would then pull them out. They described it as a feeling of being set on fire. Best of luck to you.

That sounds almost like a hallucination (no offence). Are they living INSIDE of you or have you just seen them on your skin?

Do you have an area on your body where the worm comes up? If you do you need to put tape over the area so it will not get oxygen. It will force it to come up. When you see it you need to tie a thread around it with a stick on the end too large for it to pull it back in. Then high tell it to the doctor. There are worms that can live in the tissue right under your skin. There are other ways to get them out but you would need to consult a Infectious Disease Doctor. They would know what to do. Are you sure they are worms and not Bot flies. Flies are brought out by putting meat on the entrance area. They come up to lay eggs on it and then you can trap them.
I am sure this must be driving you crazy.

I hope this helps, I know you are not crazy.
