Went to doctor and she said it isn't catching but even my boyfriend who doesn't live with me but sometimes on the weekend has it. Changed detergent didn't matter. Sometime it is almost like it is itching under our skin we cant get to it. It is mainly on our chest stomach back shoulder area and under arms. No rash at all. Few little bumps around our hands and arms no where else. All four of us have it.

  1. Sounds like scabies, it's not dangerous but it is very contagious and miserable and will not go away on its own.  You have to go to the doctor and get a prescription for a cream that has to be applied over your entire body, from your hairline all the way to the soles of your feet.  You have to wash all of your bedding, clothing, everything you can in very hot water.  It will only get worse the longer you go without treatment, so go now!


  2. So, you went to the doctor and they didn't tell you what it was, just that it wasn't contagious? You should see a different doctor.

    Sounds like it could be scabies perhaps?
