All About Scabies Cure

scabiesTo cure scabies, one must use an insecticide of some sort due to scabies being an insect parasite. Learn more about curing scabies from a certified dermatologist in this free video on skin conditions and treatments.
Scabies is a common skin infestation that causes small itchy bumps and blisters due to tiny mites called Sarcoptes scabiei. The mites burrow into the top layer of human skin to lay their eggs.

The burrows sometimes appear as short, wavy, reddish, or darkened lines on the skin’s surface, especially around the wrists and between the fingers. A child who has contracted scabies can also develop a bumpy red rash.

How Do People Get Scabies?

Scabies is contagious, and is usually transmitted by prolonged skin-to-skin contact or through sexual contact with someone else who is infected with it. The infection spreads more easily in crowded conditions and in situations where there is a lot of close contact — like within a household, childcare centers, college dorms, or nursing homes. So if someone in your child’s class or childcare group has scabies, it’s wise to have your child treated for the infection even before he or she develops symptoms.
