Can pubic lice spread to the head?

Patient's question:

I recently don't know why my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I also don't get morning erections anymore. Can pubic lice be transmitted to the head?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, pubic lice can spread to other parts of the body through towels, sheets, bedding, etc., especially if treatment is not timely due to their constant movement. This can even lead to sores. Therefore, it is important to seek treatment promptly upon discovery. If lice are found on the head, they must be eliminated. Since hair cannot be completely shaved, the dosage of medication usually needs to be increased, and the treatment duration extended. Wishing you good health. May the patient recover quickly!
