Patient's question:
What medicine can be used to kill scabies eggs? I work in an entertainment place and didn't pay attention, so I got this disease. Now I can't do the training either, and I'm always afraid of infecting my family. I'm almost crazy. I use a liquid to rub between my legs every day, and I soak my underwear in sterilizing water. Is it worth it?Doctor's answer:
Scabies medication generally has little effect; applying ointment externally is necessary. First, the pubic hair should be shaved off, then apply sulfur ointment repeatedly to the base of the hair. This is the only way to eliminate the mites and their eggs. Additionally, all your underwear, personal clothing, and towels (excluding those used for foot baths), as well as bed sheets and blankets, must be boiled in hot water. High temperatures are essential to remove the eggs, otherwise, these factors can lead to cross-infection and exacerbate the condition. During treatment, sexual activity must be strictly avoided. If you have a partner, they should undergo the same treatment.
