The scabies is becoming widespread worldwide. However, the
occurrence of the disease varies greatly. Depending on the appropriate
environment, citizens 1-30 percent affected per 100. In the 1950s, the scabies
in the industrialized countries was virtually eradicated. Since the late 1960s,

increased. Also in Germany, the scabies spread again strong, although both the
standard of living and hygiene have improved significantly.

How is scabies transmitted?
The transmission of scabies occurs by direct physical
contact. The itch mite responsible for the disease has its habitat on the human
skin, where they, however, survived only a few days. So the itch can be
triggered even the appearance of a single female ranges.
Because at the scabies mites just colonize the skin, there
is an infection only under especially favorable circumstances. So a prolonged
physical contact or bed heat necessary so that the scabies can be transmitted.
Risk factor sexual intercourse
An increased risk for transmission is given by sexual
intercourse. Therefore, the scabies is considered one of the sexually
transmitted diseases. An increased risk of infection is given within the
family, in nursing homes or residential communities.
In very few cases - approximately three percent of the cases
- and especially in people with weakened immune systems, scabies mites are
present in very large numbers on human skin.
Symptoms suggestive of scabies
A large part of the symptoms of the dross is released by the
female animals. This drill millimeters depth courses in the top layer of skin
of man. These courses lay the mites from their eggs. The larvae of the pathogen
hatch within three to five days and then take in about three weeks, the
transformation into a mature mite true.
The optical characteristics of scabies are small nodules
that spread on the skin surface and are interspersed with scratch marks. In
addition, intense itching, which propagates on a flaky crusty skin especially
at night. Disease Typical lesions are recorded particularly:
At the wrists,
In the interdigital spaces,
The area around the navel and chest and neck area,
The genital region,
The face,
The palms,
The soles are affected when the scabies occurs only in
infants.
Itch mite - The cause of the disease
Visually, the itch mite shows spherical shaped with a size
of about 0.4 millimeters. The body is translucent. The itch mite has four pairs
of legs and powerful jaws. It is dependent on the supply of oxygen - this is
also the reason that the itch mite resides only in the upper layers of the skin
of man and does not penetrate deeper into the body.
»Skin cells as food
The diet of the itch mite takes place through the skin cells
of humans and its lymph cells. By colonization of the skin takes place an
intensive skin damage and activation of the immune system. This damage the
classic skin lesion is triggered.
The male itch mite is much smaller than the female. She also
lives on the surface of the skin. While the female itch mite is about two
months old, male itch mite has a much lower life expectancy.
Because multiply greatly the itch mites, they can spread
normally within a few months thousands of animals. The number of animals that
colonize the body is, however, limited because the immune system is activated
by the appearance of the animals and because the person concerned by an intense
stimulus scratch felt - which in turn causes many animals to die.
