Thankyou Jose Its nice when people follow through with the threads that ask questions that they start. I may add that I have found a bug on me from time to time but I dont beleive they were breeding in or on me. They include colembolla, ants , spiders and one unknown bug i brought to the derm from my hair he said was a headlouse. But there was only one........

For myself, I can only say a bug is something I'm familiar with, like your "insect looking critters".
I've not seen anything I've picked out look like a familar insect or even like an insect. I get chunks of "what I call bug meat out" when I pick...which I'll post some pics so you know what I mean.
And most of my "things/pickings" are gelatinous (all the same too) like balls of things. And fibers too, of red, blue, white, and black.
Some are clear fibers too. Now here's what's odd...my fibers "not all" but many will twirl and move, and then stop and go at it all again, the whipping around movement, and they will do this for about 15-20 min, then stop completely.
But as for what's a fiber exactly? I don't know what exactly we're calling a fiber...but I would say a fiber is what grows "meshed' with our own skin.
I have pics of that too I'll post for "describing sake okay"?

60X magnification next to salt granules for size identification. This is what I've been calling 'Bug meat' only for the reason that it's darker than the hundreds of "gelatinous things I get out daily", and when I feel that tickling sensation in my lesion, and I pick at the "thing" I see sticking barely out of my tissue, my skin begins to bleed because "whatever this is" starts chewing deeper into my tissue, and I do manage to get some of (it's parts out) with the needle...so I figured it's "it's meat, bug meat".

60X mag This picture is from last Sunday the 17th. It's a picture of the fiber sticking straight out of my lower lip. I had a bump on my lower lip all week. Last Sunday the bump went down, and this (Fiber) popped out. I took my Q5 scope out of it's "holder"...and held it next to my bottom lip to take this picture of this 1/4 - 1/2" fiber sprouting out of my lip. This "event" of the fiber sprouting out of my lip occurs every 2 weeks now for the last 2 months this fun stuff has been happening.

60X mag Here it is closer up. This is growing right out of my lip. This is what I call a fiber because I have a tiny pin hole in my lower lip that this sprouts out of, and it feels as though my tissue is blended with it. As though this 'fiber' isn't a totally different entity growing out, but my tissue "blended" with it, that makes it.

Here's a short jumpy video of it sticking straight out of my lower lip. It's jumpy and jerky cause it's very difficult holding the scope next to my lip here. But you can see it! And it's one ugly looking thing. Every two weeks now, I have this bump that forms "like a be-be size bump on my bottom lip, then in about 5 days of having that lump...out will sprout a fiber. This is it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcFEmqEkNbwHere's a video of it after I plucked it out. Look at the black stuff too. There's a thread looking thing at the right side of it, that's clear then black then clear again. I've picked those "double colored strands out of my skin too." www.youtube.com/watch?v=_muJx05MM4c
