What does it mean if your anus itches really bad?

If it has been itching for some time, you may have thread worms or pin worms (or some other small parasites). These come out at night for a little fresh air (well, to lay eggs really) and this causes itching. It's easy to catch eggs under your fingernails that end up in your mouth and you infect yourself again. These are not really serious, just annoying. Medication can kill the worms but not the eggs, so you have to repeat the dose a couple of weeks later when the eggs hatch again. All the family have to be treated at the same time.

Should you be concerned if you notice a small bruise with a white circular middle that doesn't itch or bleed and could this be some form of skin cancer?

Anything is possible and you should see a doctor immediately to have it diagnosed. They will take a tissue sample to see if it's cancerous or not. Even if it is skin cancer is one of the cancers that is most curable. My friend's husband just had a minor operation on his hand (skin cancer) and it didn't hurt and all is well and should remain well, but when he keeps going in for his physicals each year his doctor will make more of an effort to check out his body for possible skin cancer. You could have Excema or Psoriasis, still, it's important to get it checked out.

How is scabies cured?

Scabies is not an infection, but an infestation. Tiny mites called Sarcoptes scabiei set up shop in the outer layers of human skin.

The skin does not take kindly to the invasion. As the mites burrow and lay eggs inside the skin, the infestation leads to relentless itching and an angry rash. A hallmark of scabies is the appearance of track-like burrows in the skin. These raised lines are usually grayish-white or skin-colored. They are created when female mites tunnel just under the surface of the skin. After creating a burrow, each female lays 10 to 25 eggs inside.
Dogs and cats get scabies, too and better known as mange. But this type doesn't infest humans.
Scabies will not go away on its own. It can only be cured with prescription medications that kill the mites. Treatment is a cream or lotion that is applied to the entire body from the neck down in most cases. It is left on for 8 to 14 hours and then washed off.
