Hello
Thank you for contacting HCM.
Actually it is quite difficult to diagnose/suggest a skin disease without seeing it. As far as
scabies is concerned, following things if present in family suggests scabies:
1. Itching between fingers.
2.
Severe itching specially at night and you get awake.
3. More than one family member involved.
There are multiple causes of
rash on body. Which can be as simple as an insect bite and can be complex diseases as well.
For itch i would suggest you to give:
> Tab. Zanlan 10mg (
Cetirizine) 1 tablet at night for 4 days.
> Tab Sigmar 10mg (Ebastine) 1 tablet in the morning for 4 days
"Zanlan" causes sedation so i advised at night while "sigmar" does not cause sedation so it can be taken during the day time. Both these will help in controlling the itching BUT at the same time consult your nearest doctor if :
> Condition starts to deteriorate.
> Condition does not resolve in 2-3 days
> Any other problem starts.
Hope it will help you and make your husband well soon.
Thank You
