Common Skin Conditions

Scabies

Scabies is a human infestation of mites. This mite cannot be seen with the naked eye and lives in the very top layer of skin. It can cause a rash and severe itching. It is contagious and can spread by close human contact, similar to what occurs within households. It is not associated with lack of cleanliness. It is easily treated by a prescription cream. All members of the household need to be treated to eradicate the infestation.
