I ve serious itching and when consulted doctor, he told i m suffering from Scabies. Till now I only had itching in the nights..But after application of HHMITE cream i suffered from lot more itching than it was before also whole day.. This is really irritating. Please advise me the necessary step.
Itching at night is a symptom of scabies but is there any family history of the condition or did you notice any lesions on your body. Which parts of your body itch the most? Hhmite cream is fine if the diagnosis is scabies but you also need to take tablet levocetrizine 5 mg twice daily for 10 days along with tab ivermectin single dose stat .You should also apply clobetasol propionate -gentamicin combination cream over the areas that itch maximally. You will feel better in few days but it will take 3-4 weeks for your condition to resolve completely.
