Itchy Red Bumps, Dark Spots, On The Bottom Of The Foot. Diagnosed Scabies And Given Cream. Any Advice?
A few months ago, I went to the doctor because I had itchy bumps all over me. The doctor told me it was scabies, so he gave me some cream for it. The bumps went away, but now I'm getting red bumps on random places of my body that itch like crazy and leave dark spots. I also have a recurring red bump on the bottom of my foot that itches like crazy. After a few days, it'll scab over then the bump will come right back. Can you please help?
