-- 許明隆 醫師【 回覆 】-- Your picture is too dark and out of focus. I cannot give any comments from the picture. But from the history, it's quite common that a patient with scabies was usually overtreated with scabicides that might induce dry skin and itching consequences. Maybe you could try stop the antiscabies treatment and give some emllient. And if that doesn't work in 1-2 week, you should visit a dermatology specialist. Because general skin condition evaluation and close observation on skin lesions at present is critical for an appropriate diagnosis. Only one photo with poor quality is not adequate for that purpose.
