Health › Re: Please What's This Skin Deformity? (Semi Graphic) by jedisco(m): 5:27pm On Aug 21, 2018 |
skinissue: About 2 weeks ago, i noticed some rashes on my body.It just started a little from my chest,back and stomach region. I went to my family doctor, she gave me some antibiotics and skin care tube to rub on my body.
My dad gave me an antiseptic soap and cream also to be using with dettol as well. I've finished taking the drugs and I've been applying the creams faithfully morning and night but it seems as though it's gotten worse because it has spread to almost every part of my body, precisely from my neck down to my laps(even my bossom), excluding my face though. It also itches alot.
Please nairalanders, doctors, dermatologist, mods, help me out in order for me to know what this thing really is and how well I can effectively get rid of it. Thanks alot. Pictures inset. @op obviously, you've got a lot of diverse advice from people here and would be more confused now. That's why is always advisable to see a professional. From what you're experiencing and the distribution and shape of the rashes on the pictures you posted, it's likely you have scabies. Scabies is a caused by a tiny mite called sacroptes scabei. They move around on the body, lay their eggs and pass their waste. Your body reacts to these which causes the severe itching. You must have got it by coming in close body contact with someonewho has it. Also, people around you may have contracted it and would need to get treated if they notice similar symptoms. Seeing that this is not a bacterial or fungal infection, your usual antibiotic or antifungal creams wouldn't work on it. you can read more on it online. Check my previous post to see how I advised somebody with something similar to handle his. Finally, you should go and see a dermatologist (doctor who specialises in skin issues) to get the best treatment and be sure it's not something more sinister |

KOPT33: My brother, you have scabies, and everyone in your family is also probably infected as well.
I am suffering the same issue now. It is a very contagious and stubborn infection. Everyone in the family has to be treated at the same time.
I don't know where my brother picked it up from but within 2 weeks after his own presented, all six of us developed symptoms.
Antibiotic does not kill it. Only an anti-parasitic topical cream can.
Here's what you need to buy.
1. Sulfur 10% cream [N500] 2. Benzyl Benzoate Lotion by Moko [N350] 3. Permethrin 5% Cream [N7,000] 4. Set of fresh underwears
1. Apply Permethrin all over your body at night and leave it on for 10hrs for two days
2. After the second day, at night, apply the Benzyl lotion after bathing and thoroughly sponging your body. Wash it off in the morning. Be very careful with Benzyl lotion. Do not use on your face and private part. It will burn you like the devil inside a hell chamber.
3. Daily In the morning bathe with warm water and then apply the sulfur cream like your normal body lotion, it will kill the remaining mites and wipe your blemishes.
Everybody in the family must do this routine else you are going to be reinfected.
Beddings should be laundered with hot water, and if you cannot change underwear with a fresh set, then launder with hot water and iron before use.
You must launder towels with hot water as well.
This infection is very stubborn but you can defeat it within one month of faithfulness to the regimen I've outlined. You're quite right but don't need to use both permethrin and benzyl benzoate. You can use either of them. Also, in your case which is becoming recurrent, one can add ivermectin to the benzoate nd repeat both after 10 days. Together with contact tracing of people around you've come in close body contact with , it usually gives above 90% cure rate. Something to reduce the itching for the meantime like loratidine may also be useful. Also it's necessary to cut ur finger nails before applying as they may hide there. Also the web spaces of ur digits and skin creases even between the buttock should be payed closer attention. In addition keep off ur usual clothes for 2-3 days so the mites can die. Necessary to note that even upto 4 weeks after successful treatment, you may still be having itching. This does not mean treatment was not successful except new rashes start appearing. Finally, you should see a dermatologist as there are a lot of skin conditions that may mimic scabies but are not and represent something more sinister going on below. |

jedisco: Not always true. Kaduna is cooler and father north than Abuja. Markurdi though much closer to Southern Nigeria is hotter than Kaduna (likely because some geographical conditions - Benue Valley et.al) Same thing can be said for Jos and it's cold weather because of its altitude
Certain regions have certain geographical factors that affect their weather. However, generally speaking you have a point.
Another thing is that during the hot season, even though Southern states may appear hotter by absolute temperatures, the weather in most southern states would feel hotter and more discomforting because of the higher humidity. Just like comparing steam to dry heat. On the other hand, the dry heat in the North is likely to darken the skin more |

otherway: So sad cos you are just unlucky.It is usually one in four children but it came first. Not true. It's 1 in 4 chances per child if both parents are AS. That means each child has a 25% (1 in 4) chance of being SS. So a couple can have four and sll four would be AA or have four and all would be SS. It's all probability. |

priceaction: New People or noobs that are ordering directly from AliExpress should do a little research not just buy from every kind of sellers because you see cheap price. Check the review of each sellers related to the number of orders from your country you are ordering from. Just navigate to latest feedbacks and click on any picture ,using Nigeria as an example. You will see Nigeria flag. Just click the flag and see your country men reviews. By this , you can get the idea of shipping time and how reliable the sellers are. Do it for other stores. To me ,goldway Hong Kong has the fastest shipping time averaging 10 to 12 days to get to naija even better than mi official. Hope it helps. Seems goldway doesn't ship to Nigeria again |

Gptech: Its a small percent of the MTN 4G band. I'm about to buy a global ROM flashed phone (max 3). The global version is not yet out. Hope it wouldn't affect my network connectivity or should I just wait for the global version? I just checked the LTE bands and it does not have band 28. Does that mean no Glo 4g for me too? |

Gptech: Global rom= Chinese version with Global rom flashed by seller, lacks LTE band 20. Global version= Phone sealed from factory and shipped with Global rom and has the 4G band 20. Does the lack of LTE band 20 affect it's 4g usage with any network here in Nigeria? |

Max 2 was released last year.. Max 3 this year... I believe max 4 will be next year... So waiting for a year to upgrade my phone is not bad.... Yeah... Max 4 should be an additive upgrade on Max 3 but a major upgrade on Max 2. Don't hope on the battery increase though |

olanreyman: On point bro. I will wait to upgrade from max 2 to max 4. This phone manufacturers don't care, all they need is our money, it's left to us to know what's good for us instead of upgrading phones every year Yeah. ipIt's all about the money. They have to sell millions of units yearly to stay in business. It's not even easy for the phone manufacturers. The industry is very crowded and competitive and they have to come up with mew iterations every year. There's only so much they can do. Apple usually focuses on one or two improvements and markets them crazy. But if you look well, there's no much difference. |
