Skin Rash, Black Spots All Over Body. Eating Corn With Cheese Powder. Treatment?

Hi, I wanna ask about a skin rash that s turning into black spots around the body. My friend is experiencing it now after having corn with cheese powder for 3days. Now she and her brother and mother are experiencing this rash. They still havent consulted a doctor about this because she thinks that this would be soon gone but I am feeling worried about this. Thank you!

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi there,
I can understand your concerns, I believe that your history suggests some sort of infestation in the family like scabies and its just a coincidence that you are relating the problem to corn.
Scabies is contagious and can spread very easily to the close contacts,so i would suggest a visit to a dermatologist so that he can have a general physical examination and starts a proper treatment rather than waiting for it to go by its own.
I hope you would understand my point.
all the best.
