Could I have scabies?!
Question: I've had swollen lips for about a week (which I guess seems to be angioedema or some kind of allergic reaction) and just today I got what felt like hives on my head, neck, and back.I don't know it's an allergic reaction or scabies, scabies doesn't seem likely to me because I'm not itchy between fingers or toes or anything, but I don't know because my parents won't bring me to the doctor's so please help?

Scabies usually occurs on the hands, feet, and arms of a person, but that doesn't mean you don't have it. It's also highly contagious, but it IS treatable. My advice is to take some benadryl, in case it is just an allergic reaction. If the benadryl does nothing, ask your parents to go to the doctor. Tell them that you are very uncomfortable. Good luck.
i dont think you do
Could be bedbugs, which would happen if your bed was kinda dirty or unwashed. You'd most likely have small blood spots on your sheets look at them to see, and if that's the case it's bedbugs get exterminator
It sounds like an allergic reaction. Try some benadryl.
If you start having trouble breathing, you better get to a doc right away.
you can actually scabies if you look closely. They look like small black dots under the skin! I would suggest you take some benadryl and see if it helps. Or report your parents for refusing you medical attention. Do you go to school? You could at least see the school nurse!
