looks like anchorworms to me, hookworms are an internal parasite. I am not completely sure if its anchor worms from the pic, but that is what it looks like to me, do some research and make sure
The first step is to do a water change (as you know water changes are the first step to pretty much every aquarium problem) frequent water changes will physically remove larva from the tank.
To get rid of any worms that are on the fish but not yet attached you need a bath of potassium permagnate. It can be found as a powder here on amazon. This stuff is a very strong oxidizer and you need to be careful getting the dosage correct. A good scale like this one is key. You are looking for a dosage of 25 mg/l so for a bath pour 2 gallons of water into a clean bucket and let it get to tank temp. After the fishes water temp and the bucket temp match, add in 0.190 grams of potassium permagnate. Make sure it is completely dissolved before adding the Betta. once completely dissolved put the fish in the bath for 30 minutes
The anchorworms that are already attached are very difficult to kill off. They have to be physically removed. Get a pair of tweezers and some nitrile gloves, rinse the gloves with tap water and then tank water. holding the fish in your hand put one finger as close to where the worm is attached as you can get while still being able to get to the worm with the tweezers, the goal is to support the skin of the Betta while you pull the worm out. placing the tweezers as close to the head of the worm as you can get pull the worm out in a quick smooth motion. repeat as needed to get all of the worms off of the betta(make sure that you put the fish back in water between pulls to keep everything wet).
next treat the tank with Dimilin. three treatments spaced 5 days apart, because it does not kill anchorworm eggs. during this time you have to keep your invertebrates clear of the tank. As with any medication remove the carbon from the filter if present.
After this, you may want to treat the tank with aquarium salt. This is controversial. I personally think that it is not a bad thing if properly controlled, but you have to have a real attention to detail to make sure you keep it at the right concentrations. Bettas natural habitats are paddy fields, floodplains, ponds and marshlands. they did not evolve in salt free tap water, there is natural salinity in these locations. I not saying they are not freshwater fish, they certainly are, but carefully controlled salinity can help prevent fungal and bacterial problems. You have to be very very careful though, to much salt and you will destroy their kidneys. Lots of research and attention to detail are required for this.
Hope the fish comes out ok! keep me updated.
0.001g scales are not that much more expensive, like $10 extra on amazon. I'd recommend getting one of those for better accuracy. Here is one that's like $40 off right now
Here's one on sale, I grabbed one and its awesome but you gotta be delicate: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W5VXN53/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_k8sqzb6GJ2R94
Don't go nuts on a scale and calibers. I've got this scale and a cheap set of calibration weights and it's amazing.

I went with this one and can say I like it much more than the Gemini-20.
Doses can be really hard to eyeball and you can easily not take enough or do more than you want to do. Here's the one I got, it's cheap and it works great.

A cheap digital scale made a huge improvement in my consistency.

As with most cheap chinese goods, quality control is hit or miss so check it against a known good scale. But both of mine have been extremely accurate when I tested them.
There have been some recommendations on this subreddit for hot water. I've taken it a step further and after dissolving it in the water, I add lemonade and some raspberry flavoring. It makes it way more tolerable. My dose today even tasted good!
I have Red Thai, Gold Bali, and Purple 8-1 so I'll weigh some packed level teaspoons for you when I get home to gauge your dose. Definitely get a gram scale though, makes a world of difference. I have these two:

I've been surprisingly pleased with this one and it's cheaper than my other two. Just always calibrate EVERY TIME before weighing anything.

Please be fucking careful. Don't be stupid. Take the time to accurately prepare your solution and to diligently track your usage. Don't use too much, be careful what you combine this with, and don't get careless. There are few drugs more susceptible to overuse than cocaine. I can personally say that switching to this method made me eventually get tired of coke, because once you can do it non stop all the time it loses it's appeal and you start to feel a bit like a junkie.
I would highly recommend keeping your solution strength as low as possible and limiting your use to no more than two days per week with at least 3-5 days between sessions, and taking a month or two off every once in a while is always a good idea. You'll spend way less money and will feel better physically, and you will be more able to maintain that sweet spot where you are feeling good but are still mentally sharp.
Typical nasal spray bottles seem to be designed to coat your entire nasal cavity with a widely dispersed mist, which means most of the solution ends up being absorbed by the nasal mucosa and having to travel through the blood vessels in your nasal cavity to the brain. Something that allows you to target (idealy) the olfactory epithelium and or the trigeminal nerves in the nasal cavity will allow faster delivery to the brain and reduced waste. This will also help to limit damage to the nasal mucosa by allowing you to use less solution while delivering more directly to the brain. See:
Ideally you'd try to find something like Impel NeuroPharma's POD (Precision Olfactory Delivery) device, which is designed to target the spray more effectively to the nerve clusters in the upper nasal cavity. However, it seems to be nearly impossible to source one of these devices online. That being said, there do appear to be at least a couple available devices that might come closer to the POD than standard nasal spray devices:
Note that you'll probably want something with a clear bottle, which makes it much easier to see how much solution is left in the bottle and allows you to spot any impurities in your product (cocaine should rapidly dissolve and leave the solution nearly completely clear, while many adulterants will take longer to dissolve or will not dissolve at all, leaving the solution cloudy with particulates at the bottom of the bottle.
I haven't personally tested these devices so I can't say for sure if they are any more effective than a standard spray device, but it looks like they should give you greater control over the dispersion target. If anyone knows where to find one of the specialized delivery devices, please let me know.
Once you have your nasal spray device, you'll probably want some way to consistently prepare your solution. A simple oral syringe will allow you to measure an exact amount of solvent (saline solution):
Saline Solution:
A digital milligram (.001g precision) scale will allow you to measure your solute (the powdered, water soluble drug) with reasonable (but not perfect) precision:
Scale:
A funnel will make it easier to get everything into the bottle and is recommended:
Once you have all the necessary supplies, unscrew the cap on your nasal spray device and put the funnel into the bottle mouth. Figure out your desired strength for your solution and then measure out the corresponding amount of saline solution and cocaine. The trick with this delivery method is figuring out the correct concentration for your solution depending on how strong you want each spray to be. I've found that 25mg/ml is perfectly sufficient, 50mg / ml is more than enough, and anything stronger is a bit of a waste. In fact, there seem to be diminishing returns anywhere past around 20mg/ml, and in many cases 15 or even 10 mg/ml seems to work just fine.
First pour the cocaine into the funnel (you don't need to pulverize it), and then using your oral syringe squirt the saline solution onto the cocaine in the funnel where it will rapidly dissolve and fall into the bottle. You could mix the solution in the oral syringe or elsewhere, and you could add the saline solution before the cocaine, but then you'll either end up with wasted solution in another container or a funnel that still has some powdered cocaine on it. If you pour the cocaine straight from the scale into the funnel and then use the solution to wash it down, you should end up with very little wasted cocaine and a nearly clean funnel.
I'd recommend to start with a weaker solution and try it out, you can always add more cocaine until you figure out the optimum concentration. If you decide to do this, replace the saline you've used each time you add more cocaine so you can accurately track the strength of your solution at each interval.
At this point you're ready to screw the cap on and use the spray. I'd recommend one pump in each nostril - any more and you'll end up with wasted solution dripping down the back of your throat. However, you can limit waste by laying over the edge of a surface and tilting your head back so that gravity naturally draws the solution towards the olfactory epithelium. In this case two or three sprays per nostril seems to deliver a stronger dose with negligible waste. 30 seconds to one minute seems to be long enough to avoid excessive waste, and 15 seconds may in fact be long enough.
I think that pretty much covers it. Be forewarned that this delivery method makes it much easier to redose, which would probably contribute to an increased risk of addiction and a tendency towards excessive and chronic use. Also, some have said that this method doesn't deliver the same powerful "kick" as snorting powder, which makes sense as you are using much less of the drug per spray than you would if you snorted a line. For an illustration, lay out what would be a typical line for your and weigh it with your scale. The spray devices listed above typically deliver 0.1ml of solution per spray, so if you have a solution with a concentration of 50mg/ml, then you're only getting 5mg of cocaine per spray, as opposed to something like 20mg for even a small line of powder. I haven't personally tried making a high strength solution, but you could try mixing your solution such that each .1ml spray delivers an amount of cocaine equivalent to a typical line of powder. This would also minimize the total number of sprays needed and the total volume of liquid you'd need to spray into your nose, perhaps limiting irritation.
However, I've found that even though the absolute dosage is lower the efficacy is much greater, perhaps due to the added liquid facilitating easier absorption and almost certainly due to the decreased waste from powder dripping down your throat or being dispersed and carried elsewhere by the mucous in the nasal cavity.
As a final note, even though the saline solution will moisturize your nose, I'd still recommend using the plain nasal spray to irrigate and clear your nose periodically or at least at the end of the night, as the solution is quite irritating (though of course much less so than dry powder).
Good luck and be careful!
Think this scale would be okay and not too cheap? I'm assuming the scale being able to weigh up to 50g should be enough https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W5VXN53/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_sHqEzbB40GR8T
Any decent sets for cheap on Amazon that I could get all the geometric dilution stuff for and/or what kind of dextrose should I use?
You can get digital scales on Amazon for less than $20 that will measure .001g increments. I got this one and it works very well:
