Scabies

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the photograph.
It is looking like scabies.
I treat such cases with topical permethrin cream.
A single application of permethrin gives good relief within a week.
Also take antihistamine tablet to control itch.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
