Do you really need to remove the pubic hair to get rid of pubic lice?

Patient's question:

Should I really shave off my pubic hair if I have crabs? Can you give me the best answer? Does medication work? Could you guide me more detailedly?
Thank you. First follow-up question: Doctor, hello:
If I shave, is it enough to just shave locally? (Or should I shave everything?) What medication did you mention? Is it easily available? I got very nervous after reading this today.

Doctor's answer:

General surgery and treatment, etc., require prepping for convenience in cleaning and preventing infection. Pubic hair generally takes 2 to 3 months to recover to its previous condition.
