ABSTRACT
Norwegian scabies is a crusted rash that's caused by a massive infestation with the mite Sarcoptes scabiei. The characteristic skin lesions of this form are gross scaling and hyperkeratotic plaques, and especially on the hands, feet, face, nails and scalp with varying degrees of pruritus. It is often seen in the individuals with human immunodeficiency virus infection, the elderly, immunocompromised patients and institutionalized persons.
