Patient's question:
I stayed at a very damp and not very clean hotel during my last job due to financial budget reasons. After returning home, I found myself getting crabs. I have shaved my pubic hair many times, but it never completely relieved the issue. I would like to ask how to completely treat crabs?Doctor's answer:
Pubic lice are parasitic insects that feed on human hair. To treat pubic lice, first remove the pubic hair and apply local rubbing, along with using topical creams. Topical medications include sulfur ointment and emodin tincture. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to personal hygiene and living habits. Avoid sharing underwear, pants, bedding, and toilets. Wash and sterilize underwear and pants after changing them to prevent reinfection with pubic lice.
