Hi. Thanks or posting your concern at HCM

Scabies can cause lesions/itching on abdomen, legs, thighs, trunk, arms and hands. The itching is specially troublesome at night time.

If i was the treating doctor i would have asked her to apply a 5% permethrin cream over whole body except face and keep it overnight.

An oral antihistamine like cetrizine will help to control the itch

It is advisable to wash all the clothes including bed sheets, towels, pillow covers, handkerchiefs etc to prevent reinfection
