A member asked:

I was diagnosed with scabies. they prescribed eurax (crotamiton) cream. i have cyst like lumps with yellowish bloody pus oozing. worried. please help!

Scabies.: Eurex application would be appropriate for scabies, which is typically intensely itchy. With pus, though, it sounds like you may have a bacterial superinfection. I'd have to see it to be sure, but that sounds a little more involved than just scabies. Not worrisome, just curious.
