Male patient presented to the Pharmacy two weeks ago with persistent itching due to human scabies infection, I placed him on ivermectin 300ug/kg start, loratidine 10mg OD and benzyl benzoate topical application. He returned yesterday with complaint of slight itching in the private parts. Although the scabies rash were gone, on examination I saw this. Also, I noticed a swollen lymph node in the pubic area. I suspected syphilis , I placed him on Cefuroxime 500bd 5/7 and the VitC 1000mg OD. Any helpful suggestions?
