Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be scabies. If you send a picture of leisons then will be more helpful to identify. It usually have burrows. It is identified by putting scraping under microscope. I treat my patients having scabies with permethrin lotion or cream. Other possibilities like fungal infection or allergies should be ruled out also. It is better to get a consultation with dermatologist for this. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
