Doctor's answer:
The treatment for pubic lice primarily involves topical medications such as Qing Shi Ling. It aims to kill both the adult lice and their eggs. First, it is essential to remove as much pubic hair as possible and burn it with fire. Undergarments and underwear should be boiled or ironed. Early use of Shili Jing or Shikangning Xi can be effective. Sulfur ointment or Lindane cream can also alleviate symptoms. The best choice is Qing Shi Ling, which can cure pubic lice within 3 days.
