Patient's question:
A week has passed.Doctor's answer:
Pubic lice are a type of pediculosis, a contagious parasitic disease that causes itching by the bites of pubic lice that live on the pubic hair and surrounding body hair around the anus. It is primarily spread through sexual contact and is often found in couples who share the condition, requiring joint treatment, disinfection of clothing and bedding, and treatment with lindane ointment.
