## Q&A

**Q: What is the difference between kudis buta and kudis api?**  
A: Kudis buta is a mite infestation characterized by intense nocturnal itching and red bumps between skin folds. Kudis api is a superficial bacterial infection causing weeping sores that dry into thick, golden-brown crusts, predominantly affecting infants and young children.

**Q: How is kudis buta (scabies) transmitted?**  
A: Kudis buta spreads through direct, prolonged skin-to-skin contact with an infected individual or by sharing infested bedding, towels, and clothing. It is especially common in close-contact environments like schools, dormitories, and households.

**Q: What is the correct protocol for using ubat kudis buta (scabies lotion)?**  
A: Apply the prescribed lotion (such as Permethrin or Benzyl Benzoate) over the entire body from the neck down onto clean, dry skin. Leave it on for 8 to 24 hours before washing off. Repeat the treatment after 7 days, and ensure all household members undergo simultaneous treatment.

**Q: How is kudis api (impetigo) treated safely?**  
A: Mild impetigo is treated by gently cleaning sores with warm water and applying prescribed topical antibiotic ointments (e.g., mupirocin) or antiseptic agents. Widespread or blistering cases require oral antibiotics prescribed by a physician.

**Q: Are kudis buta and kudis api caused by poor hygiene?**  
A: No. Neither scabies nor impetigo is strictly a result of poor personal hygiene. Both are highly contagious infectious conditions easily contracted through social contact, particularly in warm, humid climates like Malaysia.
