What is Scabies?
Scabies is an intensely itchy and contagious mite infestation. Historically, scabies is the most likely cause of “the seven year itch”.
The scabies rash typically develops 2-6 weeks after exposure. The most common complaint is itching which is intensified at night. Scabies typically presents with “burrows” (linear, curved slightly elevated bumps) most commonly found near finger webs, wrists, sides of hands and feet, the penis, buttocks and skin folds. On infants, palms and soles may be affected. The head and neck are uncommonly affected.
