Scabies it is! From last two months I had itching, I thought it was due to sweating. Three days back I visited a dermatologist and he confirmed that it's scabies. He recommended permethrin during night and crotorax lotion in the day time, along with few tablets. I've been using them for the past two days but I didn't find any change. Instead those bumps got increased all over my thighs. Can anyone suggest any natural remedy please! Bath with salt in warm water? Is it recommended?

Dear patient, as you said you are suffering from that disease since 2 months and you are taking medicines since 2 days and you became impatient to take treatment. It's very strange that you are not giving time to medicines to act on you. Doctors can give you even steroid treatment to get rid of problem with in 24 hours. But no doctor does that as he knows the side effects of steroids. So don't worry be patient, stick to the treatment, follow the advice of your doctor and don't change the doctor or treatment frequently.
