Etymology
Morgellons is a modern name taken from a description by the English writer Sir Thomas Browne in the 1600s, who wrote about children with strange skin threads or 'fibers'. So, today Morgellons is the name people use for a skin problem that is not agreed on, where people feel crawling or itching and sometimes find 'fibers' on or under the skin.
