The skin is the main organ of the human body, protector of all internal parts, sensitive and exposed to many conditions caused by various factors or agents. Microorganisms are the primary cause of many diseases that occur in the skin, including one of them Scabies or also known as Scabies.

¿What is Scabies or Scabies?

It is a disease of the skin, caused by a microorganism (Sarcoptes scabiei) or better known as mite, they can live for months on the skin, reproduce and lay their eggs on the skin surface, where they form a laceration that itches.

They are easily proliferated and the infection is basically skin-to-skin, which is why many cases of scabies in the world are reported.

¿How does it happen?

After the female fecundates, it finds a path in the skin to lay its eggs and die. Soon the eggs hatch and the new generation of mites is ready to reproduce. It is because of the reproduction of them that the affected person is scratched by day, but with more intensity at night causing even a bleed. Source

Mites have favorite places to breed and develop, among the most frequent being the hands, feet, abdomen, legs, in women on the nipples and under the breasts.
