Hello,

See, scabies is a highly contagious disease. You need to be very hygienic and treat it very well in order get out of it. I do not know whether your doctor has given Permethrin or Lindane lotions or not but these two are the drugs used for scabies.

You need to apply those lotions 4 to 6 times per day depending on how your doctor says and you have to apply dressings if necessary and you should not touch it often or do something else after touching your wound.

You should always wash your hand before doing anything. Your partner should also be isolated for few days since it is highly contagious.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
