Oral medications such as ivermectin may be prescribed. Treating close contacts is important to prevent reinfestation. Washing bedding and clothing in hot water and high heat drying is necessary. Vacuuming and cleaning the environment, along with sealing unwashable items in plastic bags, help eliminate mites.]]> 2023-07-11 04:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642376888 mmonterde01 https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642381473 Scabies can be transmitted through sexual contact. Scabies mites can spread during any form of intimate skin-to-skin contact, including sexual activity. The mites can easily move from one person to another, especially in areas where the skin is thin and the contact is prolonged, such as the genital area. It is important to note that scabies is highly contagious, and sexual partners of an infested individual are at risk of acquiring the infestation. ]]> 2023-07-11 04:13:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642381473 mmonterde01 https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642392461 2023-07-11 04:25:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642392461 mmonterde01 https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642396704 2023-07-11 04:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mmonterde01/4o1e714up8c1uss7/wish/2642396704
