Factors Influencing Scabies Among Islamic Boarding School Students: A Scoping Review

A common skin problem, scabies, is spreading very fast because of the way people surround themselves while using a shared place to reside. This study intends to analyze environmental factors involving living conditions, hygiene, and protection strategies which may be causing scabies. A comprehensive study was done to determine how scabies was spreading among islamic school students, since it has become an almost epidemic like situation with a rising number of students infested with it. Researchers browsed through important studies from 2015 on forward from technical compendiums like Scopus and PubMed. People know scabies, but not how to catch or get around it. Many people are getting it by living in towns that have nothing but flats! Scabies can get near you if you touch or come in close contact with people or animals. In addition it was found that you got scabies more easli if you were young. Some people said that we should be cleaner and study alot. The results suggest a lack of knowledge about hygiene that continues in schools throughout the area. To prevent the spread of scabies, focus should be placed on changing various factors that cause the infestation. Limiting poor hygiene and living conditions, or overcrowding in certain areas can significantly decrease the spread of the disease. Reducing malnutrition is best completed by enhancing sanctioned living processes and continuously issuing health advice messages.
