Oh, and people disliked these small insects, no more than three millimeters in size! Everyone strives to call them bad words, and sometimes associate them with their enemies. Meanwhile, pubic lice - insects are very curious. For a long time, about three months, they are quite capable of living without a master. But only having fallen into a state of suspended animation. For more than two days, they can feel great under water. Survive under a thick layer of sand for four days and withstand pressure of almost one and a half kilograms.
Being in activity, sexual lice strictly adhere to the diet and eat at least four times a day. If at this moment they are torn from the owner, they will quickly perish. This amazing animal cannot bear hunger. In addition, they terribly do not like a change of scenery, and once clinging to their hair, they remain on it until their death. It is worth saying that the opinion that pubic lice can be transmitted only from untidy people is not entirely true. Even a completely respectable species, a person can be a peddler of parasites. Today, specialists tend to call pubic lice the most common sexually transmitted disease. It is by the number of diseases in this or that society that its licentiousness is judged.
Surprising is the fact that pubic lice are quite selective. And if the new owner did not seem attractive and tasty to them, they would not live with him. However, if a person is liked, parasites quickly orient themselves and cling to his hair. When trying to remove an insect, it exhibits extraordinary activity and clings with all its might to the hair with the help of three legs. Therefore, as a rule, sexual lice are removed only with the hair.
The transmission of parasites is possible both in contact with an infected person, and through infected bedding and other things. Insects can be found in public tanning salons, pools, baths and saunas. They prefer to be located in the groin area, but sometimes they can be found on other parts of the body, from the armpits to the eyelashes. It is possible to guess that you have become the new owner of such amazing insects as pubic lice by severe itching. Having settled in a new place, the louse releases a proboscis and injects a substance that causes severe irritation into the capillary. This parasite is very lazy and having lunch, he continues to sit on his hair. It multiplies and dies there. You can recognize the disease by its characteristic bluish-gray spots. A person begins to comb itchy places, which further aggravates the situation.
Therefore, if you suspect that you have caught pubic lice, treatment should be started immediately. Anyone who thinks that having washed well can get rid of parasites is deeply mistaken. They, as mentioned above, are very fond of their master, survive in difficult situations and cling tightly to the hairs. As a result of this, first you need to shave off all the hair in intimate places and under the armpits. In modern medicine, a lot of reliable, effective and proven drugs that easily relieve this problem. There is no need to experiment yourself and get rid of parasites with kerosene and other folk remedies. Wash all contaminated areas with hot water and soap. The field of this procedure dies, but not all, pubic lice. We continue treatment with sulfuric ointment or mercuric vinegar. There are other modern tools, such as Nittifor and Spray-Pax. For the latter, a single use is sufficient. Apply it to the necessary areas for half an hour, and then rinse well with warm water. Do not forget that you can be considered completely protected from infection only when all the laundry and things are subject to heat treatment, and your partner will undergo a course of treatment with you.
