Patient's question:
Visible are many small white dots on the pubic hair, and it's also very itchy.Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering your situation, scabies may be possible. Scabies is a contagious parasitic disease caused by the bite of pubic lice on the nearby skin of pubic hair and perianal body hair, leading to itching. It is occasionally found on armpit hair, eyebrows, or eyelashes. Pubic lice are a type of louse that lays eggs at the base of pubic hair. Adult lice are sesame-sized. When they use their beak to pierce the skin and suck blood, they not only bite the skin but also inject toxic saliva into the human body. They also excrete feces while sucking blood, which causes itching and inflammatory reactions in the pubic area. Like other louse diseases, pubic lice can also spread diseases such as relapsing fever and typhus. To prevent scabies, it is first necessary to eliminate prostitution and sexual promiscuity, as well as maintain good personal hygiene, bathe frequently, and change clothes often. Special attention should also be given to checking and treating sexual partners. It is recommended that you seek medical attention promptly, as much as possible shave the pubic hair and burn it with fire. Undergarments and underwear should be boiled or ironed, and medication should be used in conjunction to achieve the goal of curing.
