Scabies
Scabies is a highly contagious skin infestation caused by the tiny mite Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis, leading to severe itchiness, a pimple-like rash, and sometimes tiny burrows under the skin. The condition can affect various parts of the body and often worsens at night, with symptoms appearing within 2-6 weeks for a first infection and more rapidly upon re-infection.
