How do I know if I have scabies? And can a pharmacist give me a prescription for scabies? Or do I need a doctor?

Hello,
Before proceeding I need to validate the appearance of your lesions.
Do you have scratchy lesions that follow a line?
Do you see small pimples on the affected area?
What is the affected area(s)?

Yes, I have a lot of sores on my hands, between my fingers, and also a lot on my feet, in the evening it stings much more than during the day

And yes, I have several spots in a row and since I'm scratching, it's like scabs in a row. There are 2-3-4 in a row.

I would have to see the lesions to confirm 100% but I can tell you that it looks very similar
You don't necessarily need to go to the doctor. The product used for the treatment of scabies is Nix cream. This product can be purchased at a pharmacy after a consultation with the pharmacist
I hope this answers your question. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact me
