🔍 Dermatoscope Close-Up – Scabies Revealed 🔍
Watch us zoom in on this classic scabies burrow.
Scabies is caused by tiny mites that burrow under the skin, leading to intense itching (especially at night), small red bumps and thin, wavy lines (burrows). It spreads through close skin contact and is very common, but also very treatable with prescription creams or oral medication.
Full resolution is usually quick once treatment starts, and close contacts often need treating too to stop re-infestation.
