You should sleep in a clean bed with fresh sheets if you have scabies. It is essential to wash your bedding in hot water and dry it on high heat to kill the mites and their eggs. You should also avoid sharing bedding with others.
Here are some additional tips:
- Wash all bedding, including pillows, blankets, and mattress pads in hot water and dry on high heat.
- Vacuum your mattress and bedroom floor thoroughly to remove any mites or eggs.
- Avoid sleeping on furniture that you cannot easily wash.
- Shower or bathe before going to bed to help remove any mites that may be on your skin.
Remember: Scabies is a contagious skin infection caused by tiny mites that burrow into the skin. It is important to treat the infection and take steps to prevent its spread.
