Scabies is almost a microscopic bug they come from the trees, you can get them from animals to, but they are a tiny tiny red but that burrows under the skin and they move from place to place on your body trailing leaving little red bumps that are like lines on the skin that are very itchy. There is a lotion for it that you can get from the doctor you put it all over your body from head to toe and leave it on for how ever long it says then rinse. Make sure you wash everything as well. It does not mean your a dirty person they do not pick in choose they just go. And they are very very contagious!!
