Patient's question:
My friend is really disgusting, unknowingly getting infected with pubic lice due to some mess she made. She even slept over at my place last night. I'm so afraid she'll infect me. I've washed all the bed sheets, but it's still not working. I want to go to a pharmacy to buy some medicine. Which medicines are available at the pharmacy? There are some at the pharmacy.Doctor's answer:
First, shave off the pubic hair to prevent the growth of pubic lice. Then, take a bath or wash the groin area and insert a pubic lice treatment vaginal suppository. For underwear, clothing, bedding, and other items, boil or burn them to sterilize and prevent re-infection. Medicinal liquids and suppositories for treating trichomoniasis vaginalis also have some efficacy. Some medications are effective but cannot be inserted into the vagina due to their strong irritation to the mucous membranes, causing pain. This condition is now rare, so there is no need to feel embarrassed if you get it! Seeing a doctor is crucial; appearances are secondary to health. Besides, pubic lice are difficult to eliminate, mainly related to hygiene conditions, the environment, personal hygiene habits, and whether family or friends have pubic lice.
