How is lice treated?

Lice are small insects that live on the skin and are often connected to the scalp or pubic hair. Symptoms of lice include itchiness around the hair and a feeling like something is crawling on your skin. If you see live lice then you should treat them through the use of special lotions and shampoos. These topical solutions are used alongside physically combing out the lice and eggs.

How to treat scabies

Scabies is the infestation of a microscopic mite that reproduce on the surface of the skin, later burrowing into it and laying eggs. Treating scabies usually involves using a prescription ointment, cream or lotion to get rid of the infestation. Doctors may also prescribe oral medication if the initial treatment was not successful.
