Scabies: What Should You Do Now?
Overview
Scabies is a highly itchy condition that can catch you off guard, especially if you're not mindful of where you sleep or with whom you're in close contact, such as during sports events. This article outlines what scabies is, how it spreads, and what steps you should take to treat it effectively.
Understanding Scabies
Scabies is caused by tiny mites that you can't see with your naked eye, but their presence is hard to ignore due to the intense itching and rash they cause. These mites prefer warm, moist areas of the body, like the armpits or genital regions, but they can spread anywhere on the skin.
Symptoms and Spread
The primary symptom of scabies is persistent itching, which can worsen as you scratch and inadvertently spread the mites across your body. Scabies is typically transmitted through direct skin contact, close sleeping conditions, or sexual activity with an infected person. It cannot be contracted from casual contact, such as sitting on a toilet seat.
When caring for someone with scabies, always wear gloves and wash your hands after applying topical treatments to minimize your risk of infection. The mites can easily be transferred from person to person, especially via skin-to-skin contact or through shared items like clothing.
Treatment
To effectively eliminate scabies, you'll need to apply a special cream to your body, leave it on for about fifteen minutes, and then shower. This process may need to be repeated after a few days to ensure all mites and eggs are eradicated.
Washing all clothes and bedding in hot water and thoroughly drying them is crucial. If possible, use a bleach spray on bedding and your mattress to kill any residual mites.
Getting Medication
Scabies cream can be easily purchased from online pharmacies, often without a prescription. Treating scabies promptly is essential to stop it from spreading and to alleviate itching. If you suspect you have scabies, discreetly obtain the necessary cream and begin treatment. It's important to inform anyone you've had close physical contact with, such as sexual partners or people you've shared clothing with, about the potential risk.
By taking these steps, you can effectively manage and treat scabies, reducing the risk of spreading it to others.
