What Is Scabies?

Scabies is a contagious skin infestation caused by a microscopic mite called Sarcoptes scabiei. These mites burrow into the upper layer of the skin, causing intense itching and a characteristic rash.

Scabies spreads primarily through:

  • Close skin-to-skin contact
  • Sharing bedding, clothing, or towels
  • Living in crowded environments

It can affect people of all ages, including children and elderly individuals.
