    Scabby dried bumps on and under pubic hair
    I recently shaved and as the hair started to grow back, it itch a lot, and like then there were bumps from me scratching then I noticed a white scab over it, and plus I felt a bump under my pubic hair. Is that pubic lice? Because I do have a roommate?And there isn't any pus just blood! I'm really afraid and I can't really afford the examine, and if I had to I want to be sure that it wasn't anything I could do from over the counter! Please give me some advice:(:confused:

    Hi trish, hard to say if its pubic lice (or commonly called crabs). They look like tiny spiders, crablike,Crabs (Pubic Lice) Causes, Symptoms, Treatment and Prevention on eMedicineHealth.com - 40k This website explains them.

    There are over the counter ointments to deal with them and it helps if the pubic area is shaved first. And yes, you will find blood because that is what they feed on. Infestations usually come from sexual contact or from sharing bed linen. At times you can see them on the sheets because they fall off, but they are very small.

    Read the website and then go from there.
