Unpleasant problem for RTL presenter Katja Burkard:
The 56-year-old is afflicted with harvest scabies.
“I have crop scratches! I’ll spare you the sight of my ankle! ”Katja Burkard on Instagram
Crop scabies is a very itchy and painful skin condition.
The disease occurs mainly in late summer
and in autumn during harvest time.
The rash is caused by a grass mite bite.
To prevent a bite, high shoes and insect repellent will help
and put your pants in your socks.
You should also avoid dry meadows where farm animals and pets are staying.
Harvest dross can be treated well with the help of antibiotics.
Antipruritic agents help against severe itching.
Scratching too hard can cause infections that must be treated by a doctor.
For Katja Burkhard, too, it is now first time to go to bed.
“Take care, now in the grass.” Katja Burkhard
