TREATING SCABIES WITH WATER THE RIGHT WAY

Scabies is a contagious disorder of the skin caused by Sarcoptes Scabiei, characterized my multiform lesions with intense itching, which occur mostly at night.

Water Treatments:
1. Daily bath with soap and water. Change into clean clothes every after bath, including underwear.
2. Put under the sun all beddings used at night: mat, pillows, sheets, blankets and nightclothes.
3. Sleep alone to prevent contaminating other members of the family.
4. Always keep clean. Wash hands, feet and face, or take a bath before going to sleep
