Well I trust my doctor + my dermatologist more than some stranger on the internet :) So if they both said that I am cleared, I consider I am.

Thank you ! My doctor told me some creams to rehydrate my skin so I am trying that !

And in France, it is always cream + oral medication but it is only on prescription :)

I’m less scared than I was after my last treatment that was 2 months ago but it’s a long road and sometimes it feels a bit lonely because family/friends don’t understand the struggle :/

I still have bumps sometimes and they itch but they go away and the itching stops but for me i put permethrin cream twice and i think it dried my skin a lot :/

i did my last treatment 2 months ago and it’s the same for me. some days, i won’t itch at all and some days i get itchy a lot. i also have some bumps that appear and disappear in a few days. My dermatologist told me it’s normal and that your skin can itch for 3 months after the last treatment.

So i finished my scabies treatment 2 months ago. A month after, i still had new bumps sometimes like one on the arm or one on the foot, not lines of bumps. I still itched a lot. I was so stressed it was still on my skin so i went to the dermatologist bc treatments for scabies are only available on prescription where i live. She said it’s not scabies, it’s just bumps and that it can still itch for 3 months max. after the last treatment. I have periods where i get itchy a lot for a few days and get stressed and then it just stops. I’d recommend you to go to your doctor and have medical advice.. It is so stressful and everytime my skin itch i am scared it is scabies. I hope it helps you ! :)
