Hi, my boyfriend broke his hand a little while back. He fractured his fifth metacarpal bone and a bone in his ring finger. He never followed up with his surgery, he just allowed it to heal on it's own. Of course it still bothers him sometimes on certain days but after he was able to make it function, he left it alone. Afterwards he began to get a weird rash that appeared on the same hand (right hand) that eventually became something that looked like a patch of second degree burn. He treated it with over the counter antibiotics creams and was also was prescribed different creams from the visit to the hospital. The patch pretty much started to fade but it left his right hand a shade darker then his left. So it has now been serveral months and he now has another rash, well at least I believe it's a rash but we went to the ER yesterday because the itching was uncontrollable with the idea that maybe it was scabies. We talked to a physician and she told us its a possibility that it is scabies because it looked like scabies and was also appearing on the webs of the hand and parts of the body the scabies usually appear on. We were told that we should go seek a dermatologist to figure out what it really is but they prescribed us anti-itch meds and pills to help prevent irritation. The best they can do is treat it like its scabies for now. Oddly, when I did my research, scabies are known to be highly contagious but I sleep with him everyday and I haven't had any symptoms. I also read that some people are more allergic then others to scabies and some don't show signs of rashes at all. So here's the point of this long paragraph, we both put on the creams and such and now it's been the next day. His rashes and bumps have worsened. Any advice on what we should do? HELP?!?!?!
