Can Scabies Be Healed With Prednisone? I Have Had A

can scabies be healed with prednisone?
I have had a rash and 2 doctors said it is not scabies and one doctor said it was. I was given prednisone and the rash went away in 2 days. I have been done with the prednisone for a week now and the rash is coming back. It itches really bad.
seems like no one can agree what this rash is. Just wondering if I need to be on prednisone longer since it healed so quickly when I was put on it. Thank you,Mary
