Pubic lice or somthing? HELP HELP!!!

[BELKIN]

I think this type of post has bin done but no one has described they had very well, SO PLEASE HELP ME OUT!

I have in my pubic hair these very small bumbs that look like very small pimples. This causes alot of itchiness time to time. Then around my shaft I have the same type of symptom. I think it mite be pubic lice, but Im not sure. Also, I tried popping one once and a small amount of white substance came out. Further, I am 17, never had sex, or oral sex. Havnt had any genital contact with anyone else either.

Please help me on figuring out what this is and if it is serious.

Hmm i have no clue cuz i do not know too much about STDs but i would say if you don't hear from anyone else of what it is in like 3 or 4 days or it worsens or spreads go see a doctor... like tell you mom that you have a rash and show the doctor what it is

i dunno to me it just sounds like ingrown hair follicles or something.
pubic lice or "crabs" as they are often called are the same kind of lice that get on you head. if you had then you would see them crawling around.
reminds me of a story that happened to me when i worked at a pharmacy. this old guy came in asking what he needed to buy to treat crabs AND jock itch. OUCH!! poor guy..lol.
anyways...if you think you have crabs you can buy the same kits they sell for head lice and treat it like that.
but like you said you've not had genital contact. so unless someone w/ head lice was giving you head or something then i dont see how they got there.
as to exactly what you have i dont know? im just trying to rule out the latter.
hope this helps

Sounds like something that needs to be looked at by a doctor not discussed on a message board... if you've never had any kind of sex I wouldn't worry about it being some kind of std... see a doctor and good luck

I would advise you not try to use head lice shampoo on your pubic area without talking to a doctor first. That stuff is pretty harsh and might not be safe to use in such a delicate region. Furthermore, pubic lice are a seperate species from head lice, so the stuff for head lice may not be effective on them.

Here is a link to the site's info on pubic lice:

yea
when in doubt go to the doctor.
my advice for a remedy was just what the pharmacist told that one guy to use. so that was just in my experience.

I think you would know if you had crabs! You would be itchy and would see and feel tiny bugs running around in your hair. *The easy thing about crabs is if you shave your pubic hair they are gone... a girl I knew in High School had to do that when her boyfriend cheated on her and gave her crabs.
