Anyone else dealing with Demodex Mites? What helps?

My doctor had me take some (a very small amount) of the topical (Solantra) on a Q-tip and swirl it about .5 - .75 inch around the inner membranes of my nose and also take some of the topical and put it around the skin of my inner ears (do not go too far in). I also found out that I had a severe allergy to dust mites from an old mattress that I was using threw out. Bought a new mattress. That stopped the itching once and for all.

I appreciate those tips! As I wrote, I am pretty much on my own figuring this out as I haven’t had a doctor yet that will think outside the box and/or make an effort to investigate my symptoms in a way that would actually matter. I bought the topical ivermectin online after being essentially dismissed (as well as misdiagnosed). So having this forum, and all of the earnest and honest folks donate their personal experience and what has (or hasn’t) worked, has made a big difference for someone like myself. Again, many thanks for reaching out.
