Patient's question:
My friend previously had pubic lice and she treated them with polygonum and tribulus, which worked. But recently, I've also gotten pubic lice, and using polygonum and tribulus hasn't been effective. What could be the reason for this? Hello, what other medications can I use to treat pubic lice?Doctor's answer:
In such cases, you should pay attention to environmental and personal hygiene, bathe frequently and change into fresh clothes often. Sterilize and clean underwear and bedding, then expose them to sunlight. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist for a follow-up examination. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can apply various scabies preparations externally, such as the scabicide. However, be mindful that before applying medication, you should shave the pubic hair to make application easier. In addition to not having sexual intercourse until the treatment is complete, it is better for the male partner to undergo treatment as well.
