What medicine is good for treating pubic lice?

Patient's question:

I've always had this problem, and medication hasn't helped either. Recently, I've noticed bugs in the hair between my legs.

Doctor's answer:

Mainly, it is a sexually transmitted infection, but it can also be contracted through close contact with a scabies patient or by touching items contaminated with scabies. First, the pubic hair should be shaved or burned with fire. Underwear and briefs should be boiled or ironed. A 4.10% sulfur calamine lotion or a 5% mercury bichloride ointment can be applied to the affected areas. If there is a secondary infection, local antibiotic ointment can be used. Additionally, patients should develop a regular lifestyle, adhere to treatment, maintain a light diet, and engage in aerobic exercise to boost their immunity and reduce the risk of infection.
