Scabies or Psoriasis??
I went to the doctor for an intense itching rash all over my body. She prescribed me prednisone for possible psoriasis, but wants to see me in a week to see if it’s clearing up. If not, she wants to treat me for scabies. Can anyone else help?? I don’t want to go on any longer if it actually is scabies!

In psoriasis prednisolone is not given neither it is given in scabies. If you want you can send me your pictures for better diagnosis and treatment. Brand names can't be written in open forum. Please send me her prescription to see what treatment she was giving.
