Solution
Skin diseases like scabies spread through direct skin contact.
This occurs when the disease-causing mites are transmitted from the infected person to a healthy person upon physical contact or through directly passing on items of personal belongings like towels and handkerchiefs.
It leads to the formation of scales on the skin characterized by excessive itchiness, redness, and the development of skin rashes.
