Patient's question:
I am 26 years old this year, and I haven't gotten married yet. I have been quite early in terms of puberty since I was a child. My menstruation started earlier than other girls, and I also lost my virginity at a young age. I have very dense pubic hair, but I never shave it. Lately, it has been itchy down there, but scratching makes it even more painful. The doctor said it's pubic lice, how long does it take for pubic lice to be cured with medication?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Scabies usually requires treatment for one to two weeks. Additionally, it is necessary to remove the pubic hair and apply sulfur ointment externally. You can also use bug juice together. If you have a partner, they should also be examined carefully. If they also have scabies, they should be treated together. It is better to boil your underwear, towels, bed sheets, and bedding once to prevent cross-infection.
