General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Scabies can be treated with Permethrin cream. This can be used once and repeat it after 8 days. You can leave it for over night and wash it. Taking oral ivermectin along with this is good also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
