Patient's question:
Itching with pubic lice and bumps, present on the head and lower parts for two weeks, possibly due to visiting some unclean places. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Went to the hospital today and received some oral medication and topical ointment. Treatment duration is one week. What kind of help is needed: Learned about it through the radio.Doctor's answer:
Disease speculation: Pubic lice, also known as crab lice, are also called pubic fleas, referring to pubic lice disease. Although children will never get pubic lice in the pubic area, they may get them in other hairy areas, such as eyebrows, the scalp, and so on.Recommendations: First, it is advisable to as much as possible shave the pubic hair or burn it with fire. Underwear and briefs should be boiled or ironed. At the same time, medication should be administered, such as: lindane, malathion lotion, benzoyl peroxide, sulfur ointment, 25%-50% stephania tincture, etc. These can all be used, and the prognosis is quite good.
