Ekbom's Syndrome: This can be difficult, because the person is rigidly convinced of being infected with bugs or parasites despite rigorous medical exams to contrary. The person can suffer a lot. Work with a psychiatrist along with your dermatologist and/or primary doctor. The psychiatrist needs to assess for more complicated illnesses that can also have this symptom, as well as treat with helpful medicines.
