After the fungus eats the hair and root in the follicle, it rebuilds right away and resides there. You can rip off the callus and you can tweeze til the cows come home, but if you want to end this cycle of craziness, get a tube of nystatin and triamcinolone. Use it BID (twice a day).. You can also get an oral prescription for griseofulvin, terbinafine, and itraconazole, which are are often used to treat this condition. These lesions will be gone within a week or so.
You do not have Morgellons. You have a dermatophyte infection. If it's on your body, it's called tinea corporis If it's on your scalp, it's called tinea capitis. Dermatophytes inhabit the layers of the skin, hair, and nail, which is attractive for its warm, moist environment conducive to fungal proliferation.
Like any fungus,it's pretty contagious. I suffered for two years with this condition until I discovered it was a dermatophyte condition. It's all gone now.
I hope no one minds that I began this thread...Whether or not Chester's beans were actually a fungus, this is a good thread, I think, to explore, don't you all? I actually remember finding pictures of fungus which looked a lot like the beans a few years ago. It could be a fungal component of something as well, if not just fungus.

I've only just noticed this as I have been winding down our summer days.
I don't know if anyone remembers me posting that me and my husband were starting oral terbinafine back in I think March of this year...2009. We've since switched from oral terbinafine to oral ketoconazole. It is now approaching the end of August. We have found SOME relief but I am no where near cured.
To say that this can be gone in just the matter of a few weeks on oral terbinafine I'm afraid is not accurate at least for my family.
Here is the original post if you don't believe me:
Lamisil Day 46
Thanks for posting this.
