Scabies - kayaKalp International 

Few diseases carry so much social stigma as scabies. Scabies is an intensely itchy, contagious skin infection which mainly spreads through direct contact.  Even its name is derived from a latin word SCABERE meaning “to scratch”.

This is a highly contagious disease known by other names such as crusted scabies, Itchmite, Mite and Mange, the seven year itch and Norwegian scabies.  In Ayurveda Scabies is known as Kacchu. Dosha involvement in scabies or  Kacchu Roga is Kapha dominant / leading to excessive itching.

CAUSES:-

It is caused by the Mite Sarcoptes Scabiei or Itch-Mite that is tiny and 8 legged. Scabies mites can survive without a human host for 24 to 36 hours.  Female mites burrow in to the outer layer of the skin (Stratum Croneum) to lay eggs.

• The disease is transmitted from person by close body contact, particularly among family members.

• Scabies also spread rapidly in crowded conditions where there is frequent contact between people, such as in care homes or child care facilities.
