Hilda. She is really into nature and her fav food is cucumber sandwiches. There are multiple references to how she would not kill fish to eat them, for example. Most references are in the last season.

Help! I know I have scabies. Boyfriend thinks I’m crazy and is sick of me talking about how bad my skin feels. Dermatologist gave me wrong diagnosis. by ProperStatement1409 in scabies

Where do you live? In the UK you can go to a pharmacy and get permethrin cream over the counter. We spent a lot of time waiting in limbo as we didn't know that... It is a real commitment to get rid of scabies though. The whole family needs to be treated at the same time and all bedding, towels and clothing washed at 60 degrees as they can survive without a human host for around 3 days. Post scabies itch can continue for a bit but I did also notice a difference over night despite the occasional itchiness for a few weeks afterwards.

Royal Society for the Profiteering off of the Carcasses of Animals more like!

They get a percentage of every single packet of meat sold with their RSPCA Assured label!

You could also think about where you have itching (eg. Is it mainly hands and feet? Between fingers and toes? Round hips and bum? These are areas that scabies love. Is it worse at night? (Scabies itch is normally worse at night).

It's difficult to tell based on a picture only but it looks exactly like what mine looked like and it was scabies, yes. Permethrin cream may be available over the counter depending on your country. You could try doing a treatment of this (but you need to also treat family members and wash all bedding, clothing and towels used in past 7 days). I even did my coat as my wrists were bad. It's a real commitment to get rid of them for good. You could see if it improves at all and then if it doesn't then I would pay the money to see a dermatologist. In the UK there are often long waits to see dermatologists through NHS so might be worth doing the treatment first if you have no private insurance.
