AMAZING WAYS TO FIGHT RABIES



Scabies are mites that spread via skin-to-skin contact with an infected person; or by sharing bedding, clothing, or towels with an infected person. Regardless of personal hygiene, a scabies infestation occurs when mites burrow under the surface of the skin and cause an allergic reaction. Scabies is very contagious, and can infect an entire family household very quickly. For some reason, scabies is more widespread in children, infants, and babies, who can become so infested and irritable that they won’t eat or sleep.
Scabies can develop anywhere on the body, however, the mites to prefer to burrow and live in these areas:
•Arms — particularly around the elbows and wrists (they like little folds in the skin)
•Hands — especially in the spaces between the fingers, around the fingernails, and under rings
•Covered skin — mainly any areas of the body that are normally covered by clothing or jewelry, such as the belt line, or in places where you wear jewelry or a watch


•Buttocks & genitals — in the folds around the butt and around the moist areas of the penis and genitals.
Since scabies will not go away on its own, effective scabies treatment aims to treat the rash and banish the mites from under the skin in the following ways:
•Your doctor may prescribe a topical cream or lotion that is applied to the surface of the skin.
•Oral scabies medication is ingested in pill form for adults. However, children, pregnant women, or older adults with at risk immunity can have dangerous side effects and medication is not recommended.
To prevent scabies mites from being continuously transferred back and forth between infected individuals, all clothing, towels, and bedding must be thoroughly washed and sanitized.
