19.07.2020 Complications

Scabies is a fairly common skin disease. It is mistaken to assume that this one is common exclusively in the circle of asocial personalities, neglecting hygiene. Anyone can be infected with scabies, but this disease is especially common among children and young people. This is due, first of all, with mobility and more active lifestyle of this population group.

The reasons

The Sarcoptes Scabiei clan is the main reason for the appearance of scabies.

Female ticks, being on the skin, begin to surpass the moves in it to lay eggs. Out of eggs are derived from eggs, which, passing a series of metamorphosis, after 3 weeks turn into adults and continue the reproduction cycle.

You can get infected with scabies, both with close contact with the patient and through objects. Despite the fact that the scaffolding tick is not too resistant to the action of the external environment, in favorable conditions, it can survive outside the body of a person of 4-5 days. A favorable medium for habitat tick out of body patient are natural fabrics, homemade dust, wooden surfaces.

Interesting to know! The tick is particularly active in the period from September to December, it is on the autumn-winter period that there is a peak incidence of scabies.

Clastic caustic factors:
direct contact with an infected person or public items;
Contact with contaminated chicken tick animals;
Recurrements due to improper use of anticipating agents or sustainability of the pathogen to this drug.

The most common complications of scabies are dermatitis, allergic reactions (urticaria, microbial eczema), piederma and often occurring scabiose lemphoplasia of the skin.

With a scabiose lymphoplace of leather, the inlet of the scabbed channel has the form of a large and dense nodal and (or) of the node, the main places of their localization are the external genitals. In some cases, it may be a long saving itching (even after full cure scabies).

Clinical picture

The main symptom of scabies is strong, sometimes unbearable itching is usually amplifying at night.

Classic form

At the first stage, patients with scabies in the locations of the elbow and knee bends, between fingers, in armpits or in groin appear erythematous papulas. In the future, the spread of scabies is possible throughout the body, however, in adult patients face, as a rule, is not amazed.

For scabies, it is characterized by the presence on the skin of characteristic moves, externally they look like wavy whitewash lines covered with peeling skin. Sometimes at the end of the course, it is possible to see a tiny dark point - tick.

It is worth knowing! Incubation period After infection with a garlic tick lasts, on average, 8-12 days.

Often, the flow of scabies is complicated by an attached piococcal infection that occurs due to leather comb.

Atypical form

In people who have strong immunity, an atypical form of scabies characterized by erased symptoms is developing. This form of the disease is called "scabies of clean", since people who pay increased attention to hygiene issues, the disease often occurs in a hidden form.


With this form of scabies, patients appear single papulas on the stomach (in the navel region) or on the chest. These rashes do not cause much discomfort patients, only at night there may be a small itch.

Nature form

Scabies in a nodule form is a consequence of a hypergic (strongly pronounced) of the patient's body's reaction on the products of the scaffolding tick. Often, the nodule form develops, as a complication is not treated or treated incorrectly classical scabies.

It is characterized by a nodular curb appearance of red-brown nodules causing strong itch. The rashes are located over scabies, so their localization is quite typical for scabies.

This form of scabies is poorly subject to local treatment, since due to the presence of crust, medicines do not penetrate into the skin.

Norwegian or Cork form

Norwegian scabies is a rather rare disease that develops only in persons with low immunoreactivity. This form is very inclied, since in the crusts formed on the skin of patients, is noted high concentration ticks.

Norwegian scabies can develop in people with immunodeficiency states, in exhausted persons, in alcoholics, as well as in patients who have forced long time to take cytostatic or corticosteroids.

Currency scab is manifested by the appearance on the skin of dirty gray crusts, which lay down on each other. Corks are tightly soldered with subject to skin and among themselves, their removal causes pain. After removing the peel, erosion of yellowish color is exposed.


Cork scabies, most often, affects elbow and knee inner surfaces, belly, buttocks, brushes and fingers. Much less crashes face and skin of the head. Some patients amazed nails, in this case, nail plate It becomes fragile, easy to crumble and breaks.

Often, the loop of Norwegian scabies is complicated by attached infections, while different dermatitis, microbial eczema, or are developing.

Grain scabies

It is worth knowing! Infection occurs when grain dust in the skin or with direct contact with straw. Therefore, in the risk group for infection with straw scabies there are workers of agricultural enterprises, elevators, grain warehouses, flour and complexes, etc.


The causative agent of grain scabies is called the tight tick due to the characteristic shape of the body of the fertilized female. The mites of the tick has a caller with a length of about 0.12 mm, the immature females are somewhat larger, they have an extended body with a length of about 0.22 mm. The fertilized tick female acquires a spherical shape and increases in size up to 2 mm in diameter. Therefore, the pathogen can be seen without the use of optical instruments.

The optimal temperature for reproduction of ticks is 15-25 degrees, however, they can exist and multiply in a wider range of temperatures from 10 to 37 degrees of heat.

The females of the puzzled mite nipples, one individual can produce up to 300-400 young ticks. About 30 young individuals appear on the light of one fema. The floor maturity of ticks occurs on 6-12 days after the appearance depending on external conditions.

Puzzled ticks, in contrast to the scales, does not penetrate into the upper layers of the skin and does not produce scabies there. He only contacts the skin and feeds the blood of the victim as with such a mosquito.


A dusty factor plays a much smaller role in infection with straw scabies. Especially favorable conditions for infection with this type of scabies are created in the process of performing work with infected products. When grumping grain, with a pressing of hay, with spinning and cutting of straw, when cooking flour, etc.

Clinical picture


The elements of the rash during grain scabies are located in close proximity to each other on the background of blushing and slightly edema skin. Dimensions of rashes can be different, from buckwheat grain to a forest walnut. In addition to papules on the skin, bubbles filled with serous or purulent liquid are often formed.

The first 4-5 days the intensity of symptoms increases, with the common rash the patients often climbs the temperature. Can increase closely located the lymph nodes, Burn in the joints.

Symptoms of straw scabies are held for 10-15 days, after which they pass without a trace. Secondary hyperpigmentation is often formed in the plots of rash.

In young children (up to 5 years), the external symptoms of grain scabies can be expressed weaker than in adults.

Sometimes the flow of straw scabies is accompanied by an allergic cough and a runny nose. These symptoms develop as secondary allergic reaction on tick bites.

Diagnostic methods

The diagnosis of scabies is based on inspection and appointing laboratory research.

To take a material on the analysis of the damage to the skin of the patient, the scraping is taken. To prevent further spread of the tick, you need to apply the glycerin on the skin. This sample is placed on the slide glass, are covered with a glassy glass and directed to a microscopic study. When studying the material, with a strong increase, it is possible to detect the excrement of the tick, eggs or adults.

Diagnostic criteria for scabies:

  • The presence of symptoms is characteristic rash, night itch.
  • Epidemic environment. An inspection of contacting with patients for the presence of symptoms of scabies is performed.
  • Holding laboratory tests.

It is necessary to differentiate scabies with other dermatoses, causing itching - microbial eczema, etc. With these diseases, as a rule, the intensity of itching increases during the daytime, when it bothers the sick scabies at night.

The diagnosis of grain scabies is difficult in that the tick in the study of the contents of the elements of the rash is not detected. Therefore, in the diagnostic process, an important role is played by the collection of history, and confirmation of the fact of contact with grain, straw or similar products that can be infected with ticks.

Even more convenient preparations produced in the form of aerosols. They are simply sprayed above the skin.

In the presence of complications of scabies at the first stage of treatment, antibiotics are used to get rid of bacterial infections.

Patients with the Norwegian form of scabies should be hospitalized. Before carrying out the anti-kabiosis (anticipating) treatment, it is necessary to achieve a softening of the crust. For this purpose, a course of soap-soda baths and the use of keratolytic ointments is appointed. After removal of the crust, the treatment of scabies are carried out along the usual scheme. In addition, drugs are prescribed to stimulate immunity and correction of the underlying disease that influenced the immune status.

The forecast for grain scabies is good, however, immunity to the disease is not produced. With a re-infection, straw scabies will reappear again.

Grain scabies (straw)

Postcaboid lymphoplasia (novel scabies)

With this form of scabies on the skin, red-made sprinkling nodules are detected with a smooth surface, which are foci of hyperplasia of lymphoid tissue.

The diagnosis of scabies can establish a dermatologist in physical inspection and confirm with microscopic laboratory research (reliability of the analysis only 30%). Glycerin is applied to the affected area, then the scalpel is scraped the material for analysis.
