I'm new here and new diagnosis as of yesterday. Had what was assumed to be a scabies infestation late January, though the rash began mid December. Back then I worried it was bed bugs from travelling but they were ruled out as were fleas, my next worry. By the time I went to the doctor it was inflamed and intensely, painfully itchy spots from my neck to my knees. I was treated for scabies without mites actually checked for so it may have been Grovers from the start. I was given Permethrin cream twice then ivermectin a long with steroids and it seemed to improve but came back quickly. Punch biopsy led to the diagnosis and now I'm seeking advice on managing it till it hopefully resolves
