What Causes Itchy Scabs Around Fingers And On Buttocks?
I have been extremely itchy the past few weeks, I have considered scabies, but where I am itchy turns into hives.. I have small scabs around my fingers, and I have a few larger scabs on my buttock. I also have small liquid filled bubbles inbetween my fingers...
Intense itching would result in the formation of hives or weals.
Scabies is one of the causes of intense itching. There are other causes such as allergies, liver disease, kidney disease, thyroid, side effect of medication.
It would be best to visit your doctor for an assessment to determine the causes so that appropriate treatment can be started.
