Guest guest Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 You could try Neoteric Advanced Healing Cream from the diabetic section at Walgreens (sprinkle a little MSM powder in it). I don't recommend this cream for long term use because of the dimethicone in it, but it worked wonders for me in 2007.

I get crawlies and the feeling of something coming out the pores around cheeks and upper/lower lip area and my scalp I have crawlies in general. > > What have you tried that works? > > I'll go ahead and tell you what DOES NOT work for me (may work for you, great, but not me): > - betadine > - peppermint shampoos/cleaners (i.e. safe2use) - they take away the crawlies while the scalp's tingling w/ peppermint oil but return when the effect wears off, so it's not a knockout. > - spraying knockout cleaners > - masqing w/ ESP soap > - ESP balm rubbed all over face > - sulfur products (like 10% sulfur soap) > - knockout cleaner sprayed on face/scalp > - RP > - etc - I've tried gazillions > > I don't have problems with the eyes, ears, or nostrils anymore though so I think the above does help in those areas... but I'm looking for a permanant solution. > > Thanks. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 I put peppermint, rosemary and tea tree oil in hair conditioner, wash my hair at night, and put in the conditioner like a thick mask on my hair, making sure it's rubbed into the entire scalp. In the morning, I just rinse it out or if I'm not going anywhere I rinse it out. The epsom salts suggestion is a good one too. Even if you rinse it out immediately, as I do, it still kills whatever is on your scalp. This combined with using the conditioner at night keeps them at bay in my hair. Also, when you soak in a borax bath (it's awesome), submerge your hair as well, for as long as you can. I lay there with just my face poking out. For me, the borax brings hours of relief but is kind of drying on the hair, so I still use conditioner religiously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 I've just started drinking lemon water, it's something I've done in the past to successfully treat cellulite and liven up my complexion. I've heard a lot of good stuff about the organic coconut oil. Right now I'm using my own balm made of fractionated coconut oil, sea buckthorn oil, beeswax and essential oils on my skin. After this latest batch of balm, when I used the fractionated coconut oil in place of the olive oil I had been using, I started noticing more crawlies on the face after a few days, then suddenly they sharply lessened - like they were down deep and came to the surface to die. Little b@$t@#Ds, I'm glad!! DIE! DIE!
