How are pubic lice formed?

Pubic lice are a type of lice. This type of sparganum has a very strong reproduction ability and mainly parasitizes on the hair of the body, especially the pubic hair area is the first location. Severe patients may have dietary parasites under the armpits and eyebrows. Pubic lice not only bite the skin behind the part and cause itching, but it is also a contact-transmitted parasitic infection. Next, let's take a look at how pubic lice are caused.

1. Direct transmission: This type of transmission mainly refers to direct contact transmission other than non-sexual behavior. Many patients are infected with the disease due to limited standards of food, clothing, housing and transportation, crowded housing, living in dormitories, poor sanitary conditions, sleeping in the same room with patients suffering from pubic lice, and developing close contact.

2. Sexual transmission: Sexual transmission is a major factor causing the disease in clinical medicine. The main reason is that human sexual life can provide pubic lice with opportunities to find new hosts, and they will be infected by new hosts during the contact process. Therefore, in clinical medicine, it is found that pubic lice are often prevalent among couples and promiscuous people.

3. Indirect contact: The main way of transmission is that pubic lice and lice eggs are contaminated by the loss of pubic hair and the patient's underwear, towels, sheets, toilet seats, etc. If they are not disinfected in time during life, others may be infected by touching these objects contaminated by pubic lice. For example, if you stay in unclean hotels when you are on business trips, take a shower in public places, or use public lockers when swimming, you may be infected with pubic lice.

Because pubic lice can move freely in the environment, if they are not eliminated for a long time after the infection occurs, they can spread to other people. And because pubic lice survive by sucking human blood, they can also cause mutual infection, thus causing some serious hepatitis and AIDS.

Pubic lice must be taken seriously and targeted eradication and treatment must be carried out as soon as possible. When treating pubic lice, you must pay attention to leaving no chance for pubic lice to survive. First, you should shave all the hair on your body and then burn it, then apply symptomatic treatment drugs to kill the larvae. The service facilities, sheets, quilts, clothes, etc. in the home must be thoroughly disinfected and sterilized to completely kill pubic lice.
