I wasn't sure where to post this, but has anyone had experience with mites (Demodex or otherwise)? I'm beginning to think this may be the cause of my current breakout (either this or folliculitis) for many reasons but primarily because it is so ITCHY. I've had acne on and off for over ten years and it has never itched like this, and I'm not using BP or Salicyilc Acid or anything else that would be causing the itching.
Here's a link from a Dermatology Journal: http://dermatology-s10.cdlib.org/134/case_presentations/demodex/lee.html
Candida!!!!! It's an overgrowth of a natural yeast on our skin. Candex has completely ridden my skin of any itchiness. My skin used to be extremely itchy!
I started taking Candex today! Just took my nighttime dose a minute ago. 🙂 I actually REALLY hope it's Candida and not mites. I've been reading about them all night and they seem crazy difficult to get rid of. Probably going to clean my whole apartment tomorrow anyway.
