Diagnosed With Scabies. Itchy Rashes On Elbows, Hips And Thighs. Treated With Lyclear Cream. Need Permanent Cure For Recurring Rashes
Hi, I visited a GP 2 weeks ago with rash on my elbows, hips and thigh area and was diagnosed with scabies and subsequently treated (myself & partner) with Lyclear cream. All bedding & clothing was also washed. Because my rash didn t seem to be subsiding, I treated myself again, 7 days later, afterwhich the rash increased and has started to appear on several different areas of my body; armpits/backs of knees/back. Is this normal after treatment? Do I need to treat again? Is patience the key here?
