How to treat scabies effectively and quickly?
Disease description:
I am a 22-year-old male who has developed scabies. I would like to ask, how can scabies be treated effectively and quickly?

Scabies is a highly contagious skin disease caused by the scabies mite. The goals of treatment are to eliminate the mites, relieve symptoms, and prevent further transmission. The following are treatment recommendations:
1. **Personal hygiene**: Keep the skin clean and dry. Take daily baths and change into clean bed sheets and clothing. Sun-drying these items can help kill scabies mites and aid in recovery.
2. **Topical medications**: Apply medications such as sulfur ointment or salicylic acid ointment as directed by a physician. These medications have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects that help improve skin conditions.
3. **Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy**: This treatment uses the low temperature of liquid nitrogen to cause necrosis of the affected tissue, thereby achieving therapeutic effects and helping eliminate scabies.
4. **Home cleaning**: During treatment, all personal items such as clothing, bed linens, and towels should be thoroughly washed and dried at high temperatures to eliminate mites. Furniture and carpets may also require cleaning or steam treatment.
5. **Close contacts**: Individuals who have had close contact with the patient should receive the same treatment even if they do not show symptoms, to prevent reinfestation.
