I self diagnosed my family for scabies after three visits to doctor over dry skin and possibly allergies. We used the Prometerin treatment two days ago. We are still itchy but I understand it will take two weeks to shed the bugs from our skin. My question is why are my thighs bruised. Am I itching that much at night and causing bruising?
Hithis seems to be scabies with secondary bacterial infection, can be due to the itching or the lesions getting infected. Application of 10% benzyl benzoate or permethrin is the treatment for scabies it is better to meet your dermatologist, to add up with one course of antibiotics to prevent the dermatitis or secondary infection. Please do not meddle or scratch the infected area. All the best take care
