Hello, scabies is a parasitic infection that involves certain areas of the body. Also it can present in a variety of different ways in different individuals. Unfortunately diagnosis of scabies will need more than a photograph. You should see a Dermatologist who will examine you thoroughly and rule out scabies or any other skin condition.,along with prescribing you proper medications to control the itching. Regards, Dr.Shruti Jadhav Devershi, Sólskin professional Dermacare, Kharadi, Pune
