Hello sir, thank you for choosing healthcare magic. I have reviewed your attachments. As per them, you might be probably suffering from scabies. The doctor also prescribed permethrin for local application which is used for scabies.
As the doctor examined you in person, his treatment is more reliable and i recommend you to use the same as prescribed in the attachments.
