A member asked:
Can you feel parasites wiggling around, and they feel like butterflies? - or is that just gas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not parasites: You can occasionally feel subcutaneous parasites but these are not in the usa. What you are feeling is, as you suspected, gas in the intestinal tract. If this disturbs you or is accompanied by other symptoms, see a doctor. Good luck.
