Scabies symptoms after treatment
Hello,
I was recently diagnosed with scabies. I did the treatment of 10 hours of the cream.
My skin is still itchy and I have noticed a few new bumps/bites. I do not have a rash. But my skin does get red and blotchy after a hot shower...
Do I need to reaply the cream?
Can symptoms persist if treatment was successful?
Thank u

Thank you so much for the reply!
I went back to the doctor today and he said he didn't think it looked like scabies but told me I could reapply the cream after 72 hrs from the first dose. I am going to clean everything and do it again.
