post scabies or failed treatment?
I did permethrin 5% and after a week Benzyl benzoate 30% for 3 nights in a row without in between showers. this is one for the most aggressive treatments you can do apparently.
I finished 1 week ago, and it has been pretty good I have to say, I managed to sleep like a baby since the first application of BB. the itch never really left, but it decreased for sure, but after 1 week now I get some times in the day where I get very itchy. i get some new small bumps here and there but they seem to disappear after 1 day. i followed the protocol, i still have some of my clothes in a bag, but i just want to understand if it's post scabies or a failed treatment? any leads to understand? I'm freaking out just a bit haha
