Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Sinusitis / December 2004Tiny whitish/yellow worm crawling on my glasses...
My boarding room was a bit damp & dusty and I live in a tropical city. I usually just place my glasses on the table without box at night... I recently noticed there are some very tiny worms (0.1mm diameter) crawling on my glasses. They are so small that I can only notice when they are crawling, like a hair thin...I am not able to see any of them on the table itself... What are they? How can I get rid of them? >My boarding room was a bit damp & dusty and I live in a tropical city. >I usually just place my glasses on the table without box at night...

This has nothing to do with sinsuitis. > >My boarding room was a bit damp & dusty and I live in a tropical city. > >I usually just place my glasses on the table without box at night...

We probably shouldn't have answered at all. They are thirsty for attention. I couldn't pass up the joke though. Maybe he'll really try it. Maggots are used in medicine, why not those tiny worms--mucus eaters? ;-) >Perhaps if he sticks the worms up his nose they will clean out his sinuses! >;-) (LOL) [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >really try it. Maggots are used in medicine, why not those tiny worms--mucus >eaters? ;-) Very good! Actually, from the newsgroups he posted to, I suspect he may be a serious poster. I note he is in Singapore and I am not sure what the state of knowledge about such things is there.... Thanks for your replies. Are they dust mites? > My boarding room was a bit damp & dusty and I live in a tropical city. > I usually just place my glasses on the table without box at night...

Dust mites are much smaller and do not look like worms anyway. |
