What
is
scabies?
Scabies
is
an
infection,
most
common
in
children.
It
is
a
contagious
skin
disease
caused
by
tiny
insects
called
mites.
Causes
:
Scabies
is
found
worldwide
among
people
of
all
groups
and
ages.
It
is
spread
by
direct
contact
with
infected
individuals
and

by
sharing
clothes.
The mites that cause scabies burrow into the skin and deposit their eggs, forming a characteristic burrow that looks like a pencil mark. The eggs mature in 21 days.
The itchy rash is an allergic response to the mite. Mites may be more widespread on a baby's skin, causing pimples over the trunk, or small blisters over the palms and soles. In young children, the head, neck, shoulders, palms, and soles are involved.
