How to treat pubic lice?

Patient's question:

How are pubic lice caused? I always wash well down there, including the pubic hair, when I take a bath every day, but why do I often feel itchy down there? Especially in the areas with hair, is this due to pubic lice? How do you treat pubic lice?

Doctor's answer:

Pay close attention to hygiene if you have pubic lice. It is recommended to visit a dermatology department in the hospital for a thorough examination and treatment. Pubic hair can be shaved, and local medication can be applied to alleviate symptoms. Pay attention to washing and sunning bedding and underwear, which can help reduce the occurrence of the disease. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, as it may lead to cross-infection. Generally, timely treatment can lead to recovery and cure. Maintain physical and mental health, keep personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
