I'm a bit confused about using the Carel Solution. It contains coal tar topical solution USP and salicylic acid IP in an aqueous base, and I've been told to use it like a shampoo. Could you guide me on how exactly I should be applying it? I'm not sure if I'm supposed to use it differently than regular shampoo.

I've been dealing with some intense skin itching at night ever since I recovered from dengue fever a week ago. It's mostly on my hands and legs and feels more like bump skin rather than a red rash. Could this itching be related to my recent dengue, or should I be worried about another skin issue? I'm really concerned and could use some guidance.
The itching you're experiencing, particularly at night, with bump-like skin on hands and legs, could be a post-dengue complication, but it's essential to consult a dermatologist to rule out other skin conditions, such as urticaria, pruritus, or allergic reactions, and seek guidance on appropriate treatment.
