psoarsis patient that found red bugs on skin

Sent to Health Experts September 12 2006 at 6:53 PM
   

I have psoarsis and many other medical conditions. tonight I was itiching my legs and removed a lot of dead skin to the point of it bleeding. When cleaning the white skin patches off the bed, I found 3 very small red worm looking things that are alive and moving. I am unsure if I am just freaking out because of bed mites, or the fact there are 4 cats and a dog here, or should I seek some sort of medical ER tonight for something like scabies, etc?

this really sounds as though you need to have this checked either tonight or in the morning as it may be an indicator of a serious infection and can lead to further serious problems. Cats are known to carry bacteria that are very harmful to humans. let me know if you need further assistance.
