Study says post-scabies skin can promote growth of staph a. bacteria
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articlesPMC4038468 /
Im 9 months since my first scabies treatments. Months 2-9 I’ve dealt with post scabies marks, pigmentation spots, “scars”, and most recently some pimple/boils on buttocks/small of back area. Great, just when scabies wasn’t enough, now this!
Found the linked study says your skin natural biome changes considerably after scabies and treatment. More staph a bacteria. And if you use Hibiclens or other strong antibacterial stuff, you’re killing the good bacteria like lactobacillus. Doesn’t help your skin get back to a natural state if you kill all the bacteria.
Again, none of this info came from a doctor I paid. Gotta find it all on my own.
I’m using salicylic acid body wash now occasionally as exfoliant. Doesn’t kill all bacteria but helps with post scabies acne/.boils. Occasionally use Hibiclens or benzoyl peroxide to spot treat. But now I’m consciously aware of my skin biome and the good bacteria that help crowd out the bad ones.
