I am pleased to play and walks. But at night it seems to be replaced: a child
becomes capricious, sleeping badly and constantly scratches the skin in different
Mesal. With what it can be connected? If we are talking about the like
symptoms, it is quite possible that the crumb has become infected... scabes.
Scabies (scabies) - infectious disease, whose causative agent is parasite
- Chesoccal tick. Among his explicit characteristics - Night itch,
Education on the skin of scabies (in the form of a straight or winding
Lines size from 1 mm to several centimeters, white or
dirty gray, in the front end of which you can see a female
Tick, translucent through the skin in the form of a black point), as well as - rash in
The form of small nodules and bubbles. Unarmed eye tick is not visible,
Since it reaches the value of only 0.25 x 0.35 mm. Chesoccal tick
parasitis on man, and for a short time can
located on pillows, clothes, door handles, in bed linen.
As the infection occurs
Some parents believe that scabies can be infected from
Pets (dogs, hamsters), but it does not match
Reality.
The source of infection is the sick person and his things (bed
Lingerie, towels, washcloths and t.D.). Most often infection occurs when
contact with sick (if you have to sleep in one bed or
take care of it). This is a direct path of transmission of the disease. But get infected
It is possible and without communication with the patient - through household items and bed
accessories. In this case, we can talk about the indirect path of infection.
There may be whole foci of scabies - for example, if in the family from
The first sick infects the rest of the relatives as adults,
So children. And than the younger child, the higher his probability
infection. The outbreak of the disease may occur in any
The team - in the children's preschool institution, at school, in the hospital.
Extracted cases of infection with scabies (in baths, trains, hotels) -
Very rare phenomenon. However, this possibility is not excluded:
Chesoccal tick can be transmitted with successive contact flow
People with bedding and toilet objects on which
He is able to persist for a while.
How scaby manifests
Once on the skin of a person, scaffolding ticks immediately tear it and
Start intensely eat. Females lay eggs.
Life expectancy for female - 1.5 months, and during this time she
I have time to postpone about 40-50 eggs. A few days later
appear larvae that go to the skin surface and turn
In adult ticks - males and females. The new resettlement cycle begins
On other areas of the skin.
The disease is manifested on average 2 weeks after infection.
The first and one of his most important symptoms - skin itching throughout
body, especially in those places where the tick is moving. At night, itching is enhanced,
Since at this time there is the greatest activity of female scabies
Tick. Children involuntarily combing the skin in a dream, and in the places of these
Combs can get infection, purulent crusts will appear. Kids bad
sleep at night, in the morning there are sluggish, capricious, but by this time the day itch
decreases. Sometimes the need to be intended is not so much,
Children do not complain, and parents do not notice a long time that the kids are sick.
If parasites exist on the human body for a long time, on the skin
Old scales are detected in the form of dry surface cracks.
True, in the case when the illness of the disease does not exceed two
weeks, scales you can not see. However, scabies exist
and other external signs. In places of ticks, small (up to
1 mm) rash, similar to the nodules, as well as in the form of pink bubbles
Colors or leather color. Due to combs they are covered with reddish
crust.
«Typical» Places for scales - these are plots with thin
Gentle skin: interfallated folds and bright bends at the brushes, and
also belly, spin, buttocks, the inner surface of the hips; Often
Underwear covered penis and scrotum. Kids rash can
Arrive on the face, on the chest, near the armpit.
With the appearance of such symptoms of the child, you need to show a doctor, primarily a children's dermatologist.
Diagnosis of scabies
Often, doctors of all specialties, facing symptoms of scabies,
Make diagnostic errors. Especially - if a sick child
Already suffers from allergic skin diseases that are accompanied by
Itching. In such situations, doctors sometimes do not conduct laboratory
research and establish a diagnosis «allergy», «Allergic dermatitis»,
With an appropriate course of treatment: Disposable antiallergic
Preparations, prohibit washing, recommend lubricating the skin hormonal
Ozzy. But these measures only worsen the course of the disease.
Scabies detect the totality of a number of signs. Firstly,
Based on the characteristic symptoms (such as itching, scales,
Rash in the form of small nodules and bubbles with appropriate localization),
secondly, in the absence of the effect of treatment with anti-allergic and
anti-inflammatory means, including hormonal ointments, and
Finally, if there are sick scabies surrounded by a child. On the
The basis of the above is the diagnosis of scabies and
Appropriate treatment is prescribed.
Laboratory
The study is carried out as follows: the tick is extracted from
Chesoccial moves of a disposable sterile needle for injection or
scraped sterile blade. Scraping is placed on the glass where
Alkali or lactic acid was previously applied, and
viewed under the microscope. You can see a whole tick, separate
His fragments or eggs.

usually occurs through a very short time - up to 1 week. To that
time 91% of patients completely recover. Itching disappears already on the 2nd
day. However, in some cases, this symptom can be maintained within 2
Weeks, not being associated with a certain time of day. If
there is no fresh scaffolding rashes, such itch is called

organism on tick and products of its livelihoods. Such patients ne
