Answers:
I agree with above poster. Vinegar is a great antiseptic.

Go to doc...you may have scabies. Scabies is something like human mange, and must be treated to cure.

If you can not afford doc, maybe try keeping the affected areas smeared with vaseline. The oil can smother the mites to death. This is what soldiers in the field often do, and it works.

Also, you might be able to juice some raw garlic, mix a few drops of the juice in a quarter cup of water,shake very well, and apply to the affected areas (mites hate garlic). Or you can go to the healthfood store and ask what they would recommend for chiggers or scabies. If they are uncooperative (i.e., "go to the doctor!"), then ask if they have anything containing sulphur that can be put on the skin. Skin mites hate sulphur, but you must make sure that the kind of sulphur you get is suitable for use on the skin.

I am not a doctor, and make no claims...blah...proceed at your own peril...

use vinegar ,it relieves swelling and itching and is an antiseptic as well
