Scabies and pediculosis.
Although scabies and pediculosis are difficult and widespread problems, there are many effective treatments available. Dermatologists play a major role in educating the public in prevention and diagnosis. Although patients are more aware and well informed of the infections because of the Internet and other sources, practitioners are often the most important source of information and treatment in helping to eradicate this worldwide problem.
