Scabies!

had a few 'scares' before, but not the real thing. think i have one of those super immune systems. im glad i always have tea tree oil in my pack.

Not to be an asshole or anything but I'm pretty sure scabies has absolutely nothing to do wih immune systems...it's a parasitic mite...
 
if you have access to common house hold herbs and spices,

i would dump the entire contents of rosemary, thyme, basil, or any other spicey-pungent herb into a stock pot, dump about half of olive oil (canola if thats all youve got) heat it up until the oil is discolored, dump it into a hot bath and soak. do this a lot.

if you have access further to more plants, eucalyptus oil dumped in a bath with usually do it mixed with rosemary or lavenendar. careful cause eucalyptus makes your mucus membranes burn but it isnt dangerous to you if diluted properly.

there are also on the self medications but they are bad for your skin and hardly work.


Thanks. Have you tried this personally? Hah hah. Either way, I'm kinda willing to try just about anything so I'll see what happens tomorrow when I go through the pantry. Haha. Appreciate the suggestions! Seriously fuck scabies. I forgot how disgusting and annoying it is first hand. :(

Of course I have, or I wouldnt have posted it (: Ive been pretty desperate before, and left the herb infused oil on my skin for 3 days non stop and it all went away, just some minor irritation remained from where they were nesting. (ick) but first aid ointment can get rid of this.
 
most free clinics will give you permethrin topical cream, which is primarily the drug of choice against mites and eggs
 
Good ol' scabies, that gift that keeps on giving.

Alright I'm gonna get right to it! Ewwwww. Haha :)
 
I had scabies recently and was lucky enough to be a 3 hour/1.50$ bus ride from the mexican border (good 'ol Imperial valley Transit. Not! Bleeeeech!!!).
Walked not even 100 yards before I hit the 1st pharmacy selling "Scabican" permethrin cream. 66 pesos/5.50$ per tube but more importantly you don't need a prescription for it as you do in the US.
FUCK that shit. A prescription for what is basically fucking bug dope? Ridiculous.

So, if you are near Mexico, go there. Much easier
