I am 21 years old I was suffered with scabies from last 4 months. I took a treatment from dermatologist and then it's cured and from last two days my body started with some red bumps and also lightly itching because of am ate non veg and took alcohol. Is that non veg and alcohol may raise the scabies? What type of food should I avoid? Can I drink alcohol with the scabies? Please suggest. Thank you.

No, alcohol or non vegetarian food does not cause/aggravate scabies. Food does not affect scabies so that you can have any type of food. Alcohol is unhealthy for everybody so it can not be recommended, however as mentioned earlier it has no relation with scabies. Cause of your red bumps and itching may be allergy. Approach a physician to guide you regarding this.
