What Causes Swelling And Itchy Sore Rash On Legs With History Of Scabies?
My Mom had a form of scabies around her middle as diagnosed by a dermatologist. That was last winter and it hasn t totally cleared up, but now for no reason her legs are very swollen with some bumps on them and she says they are a bit itchy and sore from the swelling. What could be the cause?
As the dermatologist diagnosed scabies, the perfect treatment of anti-scabetic permethrin cream and oral Ivermectin 12 mg once a week and antihistamines would improve the condition. So, follow the the treatment suggested by her dermatologist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
