Outbreaks are likely among teammates using crowded locker facilities. Small, itchy blisters in several parts of the body. The blisters break easily when scratched.
Broken blisters leave scratch marks and thickened skin, crisscrossed by grooves and scaling.
Eggs mature into adult mites in 3 weeks. Mites are 0.1mm in diameter and can only be seen under a microscope. Scratching collects mites and eggs under the fingernails, so they spread to other parts of the body. Spreading increases with crowded or unsanitary living conditions. Avoid contact with persons or linen and clothing that you suspect may be infected with scabies.
