Could My Dermatologist Miss Scabies? How Fast Does It Spread Over Your Whole Body?

Alan — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 06:43:14 +0000

I woke up Friday morning with a few blisters on each wrist. Throughout Friday the rash spread to my leg then abdomen. By Saturday it had gotten worse so my family made me go to the ER. The ER doctors said it was maybe contact dermatitis or a virus. They gave me a shot, prednisone and stuff to help the itching. It hadn’t gotten better by Monday but in fact had spread to my toes so I went to my doctor’s office. My doctor couldn’t see me so a nurse saw me, freaked out and sent me to a dermatologist. The dermatologist said she thought it was a drug allergy. I take a few medications for my headaches and back problems. She kept saying, “it’s so diffuse that it has to be a drug allergy”. It hasn’t gotten better and I was googling, accidentally came across scabies and it looks like my rash. Now I am freaking out!!!!! I don’t want to give this to my baby. Could my doctor miss scabies? I have dogs. I have read that dogs can pass it to humans and have also read that they cannot. We have had all of these squirrels dying in our neighborhood, is there a link? I can’t possibly think of where else I could have gotten scabies. I also really want to know; does scabies spread that fast over your body?

Does Your Toddler Dribble A Lot?

Alan — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 18:44:46 +0000

My 2yr old daughter dribbles so much her lower face is covered in painful looking sores which the doctor said is contact dermatitis, the cream did seem to work but its got worse again. She isn’t teething because I keep checking. When she eats she gets her food all over her chin, she talks non stop & this seems to create a mountain of spit all over her mouth and chin. It was easy to control her dribble as a baby because she wouldn’t fight me keeping it dry, but now she won’t let me near her face and it seems pointless anyway as the slobber comes right back within seconds of me mopping it up.
Is it normal for a child this age to dribble huge quantities when not teething?

What Are Your Home Remedies For Atopic Dermatitis?

Alan — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 13:41:38 +0000

A couple years ago I was getting some really bad pus-y bumps on my hand and I was diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. They gave me some extra strength cream of some sort for it and that has been working. I still have some of it but I’m almost out, and my dermatitis has been getting worse on my hands. It is not as bad as it was before (before it was a lot of pus-y bumps and now it’s mostly very dry scaly skin) but it is on a lot more area of my hands than before. Are there any other medications or home remedies you know of to help this form of eczema?
