What kind of midge or insect that can fly like a gnat that lives in skin and hair and has several stages?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Collect an example: There are a limited number of insects that live in skin or hair. I advise you to see a dermatologist and if possible, bring examples of the suspected insect in a small bottle so that they can be identified. Hopefully you are not being bitten, as you do not mention it. Also if you have pets, be certain that they do not harbor any insects.
