I'm taking ivermectin for a mild scabies issue and I'm supposed to take the medication on Wednesday. But I'm also planning to drink quite a bit of alcohol on Saturday. Do you think the alcohol will affect anything with my treatment?

Ivermectin is usually well-tolerated, but consuming alcohol while taking it may increase the risk of certain side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. It is generally recommended to avoid excessive alcohol consumption while on ivermectin treatment. If you do choose to drink alcohol, it is best to do so in moderation.

I'm dealing with a cut mark on my left hand that happened back in January 2016. I didn't get any treatment for it at that time. Now, the wound mark has become thick, and I'm experiencing pain and itching there. Even a light touch is painful. Could you advise me on what to do?
