Itching at night: Scabies can be found mostly in areas where your skin folds and is most commonly appearing on the elbow, knee, wrist, shoulder blade and the penis, where it may cause tiny bumps and curling lines which are most widely spread the area and fingers. The itching that comes from scabies is particularly unnerving when it covers your body almost entirely and it can greatly intensify at night.

SCABIES: A dermatologist or your family doctor can make this diagnosis accurately. Scabies can cause intense itching which worsens at night. If you check your skin you can see little burrows made by small blisters and bumps in skin folds. Places you might find them include your armpits, inner elbows, between your fingers, on your feet, around the buttocks, genitalia and breasts.
