What is Understanding Scabies Infestation about?
Scabies is caused by the Sarcoptes scabiei mite burrowing into the skin. It causes intense pruritus and a characteristic rash, especially in skin folds. Diagnosis is made by identifying mites, eggs, or feces in skin scrapings under microscopy. Treatment involves topical or oral scabicides to kill the mites. Close contacts also need treatment to prevent reinfestation since transmission occurs through skin-to-skin contact.
