Scabies: Scabies is a ksin infection caused by a mite called sarcoptes scabiei. 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. It isn't likely to cause more.
