I ended up using that Johnson's Baby cream—the one with the light-colored lid, if I remember correctly—and it seemed to help me out quite a bit.
I believe it was called Johnson's Baby or something like that.
They had it over at CVS and a few other places, so you might want to check there.
Seriously? You just used that? How long did it take you to get rid of them with just that? Did you disinfect the house, your clothes, and everything else? I would be so incredibly grateful for any extra info you can share. P.S. If you can find a picture of that cream, please do! There are so many different versions, so I want to make sure we have the right one 🙂.
Joseph Hall5 said:Scabies, itching, whatever you want to call this nightmare... I don't care about the labels, I just want to know how to fix it. Is there actually an effective cream out there to stop this constant itching? I was browsing the Pfizer website and saw mention of Permethrin 5%, but when I go to the local pharmacy, they act like I'm speaking a foreign language?? NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM KNOWS WHAT IT IS!!! And honestly, Benzyl Benzoate? Total waste of time. It does absolutely nothing.
You can always order that cream through eBay or Amazon. It shouldn't cost more than a hundred bucks at most. Since it ships from the United Kingdom or the United States, you're probably looking at maybe seven business days max for delivery—likely even sooner. If you can swing it, I'd definitely recommend ordering it.
Hello everyone. I’m reaching out here in the hopes that someone might be able to help me. I am currently six months pregnant, and for quite some time now, I have been dealing with this unbearable, relentless itching on my hands, palms, and feet. After being bounced around through several incorrect diagnoses from my primary care doctor, my OBGYN, and
even my dermatologist, it has finally been confirmed that I have Scabies. I am honestly in shock and just feeling so much disbelief. I went back to get it confirmed one more time because I can't wrap my head around it. I am asking anyone who has dealt with this to please recommend a private dermatologist to me—it doesn't matter where they are located, I just need someone who actually knows how to handle this, rather than a revolving door of specialists giving me the wrong answers. I am willing to travel to any city if necessary. At this point, I don't trust anyone in my local area; I just want to be cured before my baby arrives. If you aren't comfortable advertising a name publicly, please just send me a private message. Thank you all.
