Question 1

did lysol effective in scabies treatment? what is  side effects

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: Are you asking if you can treat scabies on your skin with Lysol?

Question 2

scabies re-infestation or permethrin side affects, how to tell?

Accepted Answer

Scabicide &amp; dry: Scabies treatments often contain a high percentage of alcohol which can be very drying to the skin.  All of the little bumps are remnants of where the mite lived in  skin.  Hypoallergenic soaps/lotions which are pH balanced will help the skin recover more quickly, and reduce the itching that can last up to two weeks after treatment.  Evaluation with a skin scraping can determine treatment success.

Question 3

extremely itchy rash on stomach and sides, worse at night. it started gradually, became worse over the last several days.  could it be scabies?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Problems like these can only be correctly handled by your doctor in person.  He/she needs to listen to you, perform an examination and possibly run labs or other tests. That's the only way he/she can find out what's going on and what to do about it.

Question 4

got treated for scabies, put permethrin from the neck down last night, but woke up with itchy bites on my side. i think its bites or is from treatment?

Accepted Answer

Bites: Keep using the treatment as stated by your doctor, also you should use hot, soapy water to wash all clothing, towels and bedding you used. Dry with high heat. Dry-clean items you can't wash at home. Consider placing items you can't wash in a sealed plastic bag and leaving it in your garage, for a couple of weeks, this will starve the mites. Treatment will take awhile.

Question 5

does scabies have to be ichy? i have clusters of mainly tiny blisters on side/ bottom of foot. not itchy unless new or stretched with fluid.new 1s e/d

Accepted Answer

Could be  fungus: Try treating this with over the counter clotrimazole cream as fungus is likely.  Scabies rarely affects the feet.   If persistent, see a dermatologist.

Question 6

i have a blister like bump on the side of my foot that is the size of a pea that is soar what        could it be...my boyfriend says scabies?

Accepted Answer

A wart?: Its not scabies. The skin on the side of the foot is probably too hard for scabies to penetrate. Scabies usually leaves a trail of nodules as it burrows underneath the skin.

Question 7

good day

ive been using valsartan for hypertension reasons but had to stop because it causes me epididymitis, now i use  atorvastatin and its giving me vivid dreams. is there anything better i can use with less side effects ?

Accepted Answer

Medication : You can speak to a doctor about changing your medication. I remember and a patient who had 20 medications on her allergy list, but when you continue to ask her details about the side effects you come to realize she did not want any medication because she believed that all medication is bad for her.  Sometimes patients express concerns indirectly

Question 8

so she has been getting a steroid injection due to her hs ( hidradenitis suppurativa) is that injection for any chance going to give her any side affects of gaining weight and her period being delayed or any other side effects?

Accepted Answer

: This type of steroid treatment can give a patient an appetite increase. It is not the type of steroid that would interfere with menses. Long term side effects of steroids depend on dosing &amp; frequency and rarely are features of sporadic use.

Question 9

side effects of pills?

Accepted Answer

Too vague: A question. Different pills/meds have different effects as well  side effects.

Question 10

side effects from medicines?

Accepted Answer

Side effects: Many and varied!
