TREATING PUBIC LICE?
You can treat pubic lice yourself at home by using a special type of lotion, cream or shampoo. The treatment is applied to the affected area and sometimes the whole body. It usually needs to be repeated after three & seven days.
If the treatment doesn’t work, you may need to use another type. This is because pubic lice can sometimes develop resistance to certain treatments. Your doctor or pharmacist can advise you on suitable alternatives. It’s also important to treat anyone you have had close body contact with, including current sexual partners and household members.
Complications of pubic lice
A pubic lice infestation can sometimes lead to minor complications, including skin and eye problems.
