Re: Scabies and D-S-P cream. Snow-When YOUR hand also broke out in a rash after treating your Mom, what did you do? how did you treat it? did it clear up with that care and treatment? If you were able to heal your OWN hand, then you should be able to use the SAME treatments on your MOM--the big problem is cooperation & persistence. How do you get peroxide soaks & other treatments onto her legs? How often can you get her to bathe, and put on creams and ointments, etc.
There won't be a magic pill to just just make these go away, or a simple one-time cream, I am thinking, because it probably ISN'T scabies... hard to say without seeing her, though. I recommend that she needs a good doctor in person, actually.
I don't think that the mites or scabies are inside doing anything worse than the Morgellons' does; that's for sure. It is really the main culprit to worry most about in an elderly person.
