What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Scabies?

I have all the symptoms of scabies and have had two script of premerthin (? Sp.). Didn t help. This condition has existed for more than a year. The extreme itching has pretty well abated but bloody scabs remain. A dermatologist consult is very difficult to obtain. Will this eventually heal?

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi. If its scabies, simultaneous treatment of all close contacts are required for complete relief. If you have not done that, do it. Also, wash all your clothes and linens in hot water. Scabies mite might be there in clothes/ linen and may cause re-infestation. Hope it helps.
