Home Remedies for Scabies Treatment.
Do you suffer from skin sores like scratches and red, dry, scaly, irritated areas of skin called secondary lesions? These problems point to onset of scabies, an infestation by the itch mite called sarcoptes scabiei.
Cheer up; you can cure this condition by using home remedies for scabies treatment.
Severe itching and irritated skin are the symptoms of itch mite and these symptoms can develop on the outside surfaces of the elbows and in the armpits, on the buttocks, around the waistline and the navel, between the fingers and on the palm side of the wrists, on the genitals (in men), around the nipples, bra line and the sides of the breasts (in women), on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet and around the scalp, neck and face(in babies).
Close examination of the symptoms and the patient's sample of skin may help in diagnosis. This contagious condition is caused by a tiny mite, called scabies scabiei. This infestation spreads through contact with the affected person and sharing his bed. Even if you touch the ailing person you will contract this condition.
If you have consultations with a doctor, he may prescribe a special cream or lotion or pills to take, in severe cases.
Treating all people who had contact with the affected person, treating his bedding and clothing, taking oral antihistamines such as Benadryl or using corticosteroid creams such as hydrocortisone creams are the most effective remedies for scabies treatment.
