Can Scabies Mites jump distances?

  • The Scabies Mites burrow into the skin often leaving an 'S' shape and other people can be infected only by skin-to-skin contact. Itching will occur and is worse at night. The mites are in the areas of webs of the fingers; toes; around the genital area and under the beasts in women. Your family doctor should have a look to decide what type of rash you have and then treat it. Scabies can be treated very well with sulfur ointments and since the bite from Scabies Mites is an alergic reaction in some people then antihistamines. If it is Crusted Scabies it is important to wash or dry clean all bedding; vacuum sofas, etc.

First of all, please use correct spelling and puctuation. I'ts hard to understand what you are trying to say.

I myself, however do know what you mean. I make people itch around me. I also make them sneeze. It happens over and over, everywhere I go. I have had this for about 18 years. Started in high school. I have had to quit several office type jobs because I make others itch. People have actually ASKED me if I am the one making them itch. How much more proof does one need? (Doctors don't believe me)

Let me know if you would like to chat privately. I am trying to find others with this disease so we can find a solution to it. I have been to about 10 doctors and all have told me I have nothing. Not even scabies, which is what I thought originally.
