Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 My four year old has been complaining about ants crawling all over him, but clearly there isn't. He doesn't have dry skin, he wears loose fitting clothes (he can't stand tighter clothes), he bathes regularly. But I can't figure it out! Any ideas at to what this could be would be greatly appriceted. I've also called him primary and am waiting on that doc to call back.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 I once had a roommate who kept feeling like something was crawling on her. The doc thought that she had picked up a microscopic lice most probably at a movie theater. We had to delouse ourselves and all our linens then spray all the soft surfaces in our house. I had to delouse even though we didn't share a room just in case I picked it up from her. > > My four year old has been complaining about ants crawling all over him, but clearly there isn't.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Take a look at forMication on Wikipedia. That is the medical term for the sensation. It lists various causes, including stimulant medications. > > > > My four year old has been complaining about ants crawling all over him, but > >clearly there isn't.
