Hi.
Thanks for your query. Read and understood your problems.
You removed the scab , then removed the hair with tweezers and thinking that there is some sort of the bug- When you remove the hair follicle it looks like a bug, secondly as you remove the hair the small nerve gets severed and you still get the same sensations; and you have diarrhea giving the movements of the small intestine giving you the same feeling.

I would advise you the following:
Get a 5 day course of an antibiotic, metronidazole, probiotics and symptomatic and supportive.This will help for both the conditions.
Do not be scared
