is scabies part of hiv?

[marsfXxf]

Hi every1, i would like to know a few about scabies. My
dermatolog found me with scabies as i been struggling over a year
with it, itchy like biting sensation and falling hair and even
developing an hairy tongue. when i read here i saw it part of STDs.My exposure in this is i was scratchd very badly in my back from one
lady with her nails and i knew she was hiv+ and that was in DEC
2010 and i was safe with a preservatif. So is from there  where i
startd to develope these itchy until now. I keep testd hiv negetive
until today and now it scabies. is scabies a very dangerouse
desease? do i have to worry about hiv? can scabies get killd
forever after treatment and how long a proper treatment can last?
plz i want ur help, answer me. can scabies pass hiv?

scabies won't appear in the mouth. follow up with your providers as needed if your mouth symptoms are continuing for proper treatment.

if you have further questions about scabies, please post on the dermatology related forums here - thanks :)

thank u so much for all ur help, i see this must be confused on me. have itchy all over the dody and hair problem but not in the genital part. so u meant i can carry on with my scabies treatment which i got from my dermatolog or i must go back and see him again? i started the treatment already and it try to cool me down. i have a lotion, spray and something for the head.

They are very similar and are transmitted in the same way and are cured with the same treatment.They are both from the parasite family.One is a mite and the other a crab louse.Again,neither has anything to do with HIV.

Scabies are not pubic lice, they are not lice at all, although they are similar in that they are a parasite.  And, they have NOTHING at all to do with a person's HIV status.  You'll need to be properly treated and need to properly wash your clothes, bedding, etc.  Ask your doctor for instructions.

This forum is HIV specific but it sounds like you might have head lice.

i was to the dermatolog just last week.  after checking me up, i have a lots spot in the head, itchy like bitig sensation and from last month i startd to develope hairy tongue with red spots. i showd her everything she told me that it scabies not hiv as i was over window period. really this sound like scabies? i ddnt see much bumps on the body or ringrow but she mosly looked in my head. about my mouth she said nothing to worried. i now startd the prey and lotion treatment which i see it working but dont think if it ll be 100%. plz can u advice me, im a foreigner here were i live and i never had  unprotects sex in six years and is in DEC 2010 i had my last sex, i had a preservatif but i was scratchd very badly in my back.

Scabies are pubic lice and have nothing to do with HIV.

evidently this was moved as I was answering it. all the advice still applies though.

it doesn't sound like you have scabies in the genital area so I'm not sure why you posted in the std forum.

anyone can get scabies. It has nothing to do with hiv status.

be sure to properly treat your scabies as well as do the house cleaning and laundry washing that is recommended too or you will just keep getting reinfected over and over again.

follow up on the dermatology forum as needed.
