Why is the pubic hair itchy

Patient's question:

Half a month ago, the pubic hair started to itch.

Doctor's answer:

Clinically, the treatment for pubic lice typically involves first shaving the pubic hair, followed by local cleaning and the application of topical creams. Since medication can only kill the adult lice on the surface, and pubic lice often exist not only in the pubic hair but also in the hair around the anus, recurrence is common after treatment, requiring patients to undergo repeated treatments.
