Suggest Treatment For Scabies Like Rashes With Worms In It

I had a rash 4 weeks ago and sins then things going worse I went to doctor and he sayed it was scabies but and should treat it with cream that kills it once a week...but after two or 3 weeks things are going weirder so I went to other 3 different doctors they promised me it wasn t scabies...but I do see how fast they spread special at night I got them on different spots around my body and they spread really fast..Some parts were treated but still they appear randomly...also when I rub an area and wait for 5 or 15 min...i see a white worm appears on that spot and many of them same moment from the skin...so things are confusing...i don t want to take things lightly but everyone say it s not big deal and ignore it..even doctors but I m sure it s scabies when I compare my skin reactions and behaviour with those who have them in the Internet...any suggestions? also I asked for skin test many times to the doctors they sayed I Don t have to...because scabies can t be seen....i really want to act early as this thing can be hard to avoid complete if became ignored...i was researching a lot for many ways to kill it...but surprisingly scabies can only be killed with hot water at 50 digress for 10 min or do sauna...or use permithlin once a week...but no other new technology exists to kill it completely? I think a device of UV sun ray beam projector over the kind as a treatment of some kind will kill them all forever and even the eggs...everyone says scabies are easy to deal with...i mean the doctors...but it s not and it s also fast on spreading...i thing any government worldwide should work on developing something towards it.. because it s extremely fast on spreading in many ways..and when someone didn t managed to treat it early they can kill the person specially if he got low deface system like me.....i really had enough from suffering...because I just survived from alcerative collaitis after 9 years of suffering and this scabies need to be cured somehow..

Hello,

Since you have a history of Ulcerative colitis your immune system may be compromised.

If it is scabies, you can apply Ascabiol emulsion(Cetrimide (0.1 %w/v) + Lindane (1 %w/v) in the area affected, leave it fot 45-50 minutes & then have a bath. Repeat this again after 15 days. It should clear out.

In the meantime, wash all your clothes, bed covers & bedding in hot water & dettol. Put your mattress in sunlight or change it, get a new one. For elieve you can apply ointment Bactroban in the area affected.

Take care of your personal hygiene, do not sgare your clothes or toiletries. Avoid sex while you are being treated.

You are suggested to vist ER or GP to get clinically assessed because your symptoms are indicative of hookworms.

You should get stool (R/E & C/S) examination done to study the presence hookworm-eggs in the stool. You may need a course of anti parasitis medicines(Mebendazole).

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

Take care
