I don't know if it's pubic lice, how can I be sure?

Patient's question:

I don't know if it's pubic lice. I always feel itchy down there, and sometimes I even scratch it until it breaks the skin. Are there any obvious symptoms of pubic lice? Definitely not eczema, I can tell that for sure.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the situation you described: It's possible that it could be pubic lice, or it might be caused by conditions like vulvovaginitis, among others. What the specific situation is would be better confirmed through a gynecological examination at the hospital. Based on the detailed examination results, timely symptomatic treatment should be administered. It's also important to pay attention to hygiene in the genital area, avoid spicy and irritating foods, maintain a lighter diet, and it's best to avoid sexual activity for the time being.
