AB  - A  2-year-old  boy  is  seen  with  severe  itching  and  crusting  of  his  hands  (Figures  128-1  and  128-2).  He  also  has  a  pruritic  rash  over  the  rest  of  his  body.  The  child  has  had  this  problem  since  2  months  of  age  and  has  had  a  number  of  treatments  for  scabies.  Other  adults  and  children  in  the  house  have  itching  and  rash.  Various  attempts  at  treatment  have  only  included  topical  preparations.  A  scraping  was  done  and  scabies  mites  and  scybala  (feces)  were  seen  (Figures  128-3  and  128-4).  The  child  and  all  the  family  members  were  put  on  ivermectin  simultaneously  and  the  Norwegian  scabies  cleared  from  the  child.  The  family  cleared  as  well  and  the  child  was  given  a  repeat  dose  of  ivermectin  to  avoid  relapse.
