Head Lice - Causes, Symptoms and Treatment Options
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 окт 2024
- Head lice are parasitic wingless insects. They live on people's heads and feed on their blood. An adult louse is about the size of a sesame seed. The eggs, called nits, are even smaller - about the size of a knot in thread. Lice and nits are easiest to detect at the neckline and behind the ears.
Head lice are extremely contagious. Close contact or sharing personal belongings, such as hats or hairbrushes, puts people at risk. Children ages 3-11 and their families get head lice most often. Personal hygiene has nothing to do with getting head lice. Head lice do not spread disease.
Symptoms are
Tickling feeling in the hair
Frequent itching
Sores from scratching
Irritability and difficulty sleeping. Head lice are most active in the dark.
Treatment for head lice is recommended for people with an active infestation. All household members and other close contacts should be checked. Anyone who has an active infestation should be treated. All infested people and their bedmates should be treated at the same time.

Mr
I've decided to go bald. Thanks alot, lice.
Same and and why do they even exist and they make u sick
Me too
I can’t go bald well girls can’t I’m a Muslim
@@zahra1926 what the hell it have to do with being a Muslim? I get a very boyish short hairstyle because I have lice, I go to school and no one knows because I wear a hijab. But sad now I go to public school full of christians well.. half muslim and they judge because we don't fit in sksksk
Moo I didn’t mean it in a bad way lol it’s cause Muslims are different cultures and I’m different so mind your own business
Omg I got goosebumps im like checking my hair right now and shaking like do I have head lice??...???.
My whole body is itching watching this
tony nguyen yes!!!!!!

Me toooooo!
Mine-

Currently watching at 3:30am because I couldn’t sleep and my head was itching😓
Omg same here! My hair was severely itching and it won't stop just tonight!
Lol
Who’s head itched after watching this?.....my legs and arms itched
Minee
I scratch my ass alot.
my hair itched also so did my legs neck aswel
im literally bawling my eyes out because this is so frustrating. i feel el embarrassed like i take good care of myself
Everytime I get rid of lice some fool brings it back
Lmao so dramatic. I had lice a few times as a kid (because a girl would always infect everyone else) and twice as a teenager. If you get them again just go to the pharmacist and ask for something to get rid of them and you're good. It's quick and easy. Also it has NOTHING to do with hygiene.
We know you’re dirty.
I am so sorry. I always go to the salon to get my hair done weekly. This time mine was not available so i went to a different salon. She washed my hair and told me i had lice. I went spent money on the lice kit. Went home. Husband looked over and over flashlight comb.
Nothing!! Called a neighbor over looking looking.. nothing!!!@ i am soooo pissed
I wrote up the salon and stylist on social media which i never use.
I am soo sorry for you out there.
That was friday im still angry about this.
What are the cause????? How are they formed ????😡😡😡😡😡😡😡Do they appear out of thin air.Atleast make a complete video youuuuuuu
they come from irresponsible parents who don't treat their children who then go to school and infect other children therefore infecting their families this is why I think all schools with children ages 3-11 should have a rule of not getting a foot near each other when one child is seen itching their hair
Link The Fox But where do they come from?
clickbait =_=
sa rry the grass you idiot
@@LinkTheFusky 😂😂😂
Today I found out I got lice again....the thing is.... idk how!? Like they just appeared randomly, I take Great care of my hair and I haven’t been outside in a long time 😩
Use Shampoo
Me too i don't know howw??😭
It has nothing to do with personal hygiene. It mentioned it in this video and it'll tell you that everywhere online. You get from going into close contact with another person that has it or from using someone's hat, brush, or clothes.
they don’t come from outside they spread head to head
Same!
This is my 2nd time having head lice stay away
This is my 10th tike cuz my cousin has lice and then when I got it from her I comb it out and then I still play with her and now I have head lice and dry skin so now it's impossible to get it all out 😢 😱
@@frozydozy5016 same 🥺
frozy dozy same, my cousin’s life never gets away :( it’s my 5th time
@@yazzyay7257 OOf ikr
frozy dozy they keep hugging me from head like they want me to get lice :(, I wanna get rid of it this week, I’m not used to live like them
I'm a former resident of Cruces; was homeless, went thro Comm. Hope, the V.A.; veteran's court. That said, as one of the ladies said this is a problem ALL over the United States right now. Personally I was happy to see Cruces doing a lot of things which were actually much more helpfull than other places I've lived. Before leaving Cruces, I left my blueprint for a "Tiny Home Community for Veterans". Five acres; a cropping of tiny homes; service like mental and addiction on site or within bus ride. I.E. a layered approach. We can't just have "tent city" and/or desert apts. Like one said it becomes NIMBI. Further, for those whom are longterm "unhoused" it takes time to transition "back" into living "Normally" if you will. Similar to returning home after a stint in State Prison I'd imagine. At the end of the day, the People, the City, the Po-Po all have to have the "will" to instill the Change they want to see... ijs...
Put lots of oil and comb it with a thin comb it works nice!!
But about the nits??
There are remedies for that. Just ask your pharmacist.
There is a solution called 'perlice', removes them in one wash. Ask your local pharmacist.
Where do lice come from aside from other people ..........
myviews
Other animals :>
Also it was formed by how you think everything else was formed.
@@FestiveRocket no animals can't have lice only humans
Rocket Jumper animals have there own type of lice they can’t be transferred to our hair bc we have different hair type than animals
But how do people get head lice
It is usually carried from a head to another, like it said. They can lay up to 20 eggs, or nits, a day. Just ONE of these eggs could get on another person and then you have tons of them if not treated properly
Ava Caudell ahh now I’m scared
Narjis H usually comes from not taking proper shower, and not keeping clean, as well as other people just spreading the lice to you
How do we treat the lice
@@yazzyay7257 I got spread lmao from my sister, because she got spread by her friend 😔👈
I was washing my face and I saw a tiny clear bug clawing on my shoulder and im worried that it may be lice. I have never had it and I don't know how I got it if i have it
Nothing happened, no eggs were laid and I didn't have any. But it really creeped me out to see a clear bug just on my shoulder. I kept getting told that since I'm black love don't really mess with black people's hair since it's corse and not really straight. I had my hair out at the time not in braids where my scalp is visible
You should get your head checked, how old are you?
@@a-vick913 why ask her age? It has nothing to do with having lice..right?
But where do they come from?
Bad hygiene habits
Thank you for viewing this page! We would greatly appreciate it if you would Like, Comment, and Subscribe. Thank you again!
got them yesterday and bought a treatment asap. i just feel embarrassed about it i wash regularly and i’m 17… anyways i think i got them out and the treatment kills them anyways😞✌️
What treatment did you use? Is it effective? I'm also 17 and still has lice and I want to get rid of it asap
@@joyceesoriano8027 the one i used was "full marks solutions". comb through your hair thoroughly until no more lice show up and then take a nice shower. it takes a bit of a while but if you do a good job at it they'll all go away :)
Thank you for your comment Cookiduhh.. Hope you feel better soon!
@@joyceesoriano8027There is a solution called 'perlice', removes them in one wash. Ask your local pharmacist.
dude idk if i have lice im itchy everywhere and i feel stuff in my hair but i already looked and theres literally nothing I can see
literally me!!!! omg
Well how do I make them feel pain
🔥
I don't know why, but I awoke to severe itching on my head and i can't sleep..I know I have head lice but I don't know why it's acting like this ;-;
Did anyone get the treatment though?
Thank you for you comment Michele..The video generally talks about the need for treatment... but here is some additional info you may find helpful: www.cdc.gov/parasites/lice/head/treatment.html
Let's be bald
That's the treatment
I wish . That happened
Josea Yum I wanted to do that but my mum said just let’s try to get rid of it without being bald
Cant believe this comment is 1 year already
My lies are not ready
And y hairs are not ready to get bald
What to do!!!!!!
@@arariira 2 months ago
Lice appear if you tie your hair or do your hair after showering or taking a bath
Ugh it’s been going on for a day I never done anything I take showers WAYY too much
Thank you for your comment Stale. So sorry to hear that. Hope you feel better oon
I have lice since 3rd grade, now I am in 7th grade but the headlice keep coming back even after cleaning my hair or cutting them. I think I should be treated? (according to the video????) Idk but yeah, I think I should go bald.
What?? Tell your parents. That’s insane. I recommend getting treatment asap. As I am doing
@@Tysnack
I've cut my hair many times and the lice DO disappear but at last they come back ( I highkey think it's because of general reasons ).
I washed my hair day before yesterday, and I don't feel the itching anymore, however, I am sure there are some lice left so I'm gonna ask my mom to do something about it (probably apply medicine etc idk lol) then I'll make sure to wash my hair more often (something I never do) and maintain it properly from now on, check time to time if they are lice or not.
Thank you for the recommendation, though! I hope your treatment will be successful :)
Have a good day/night!
@@bibekanandababu4251 I’m glad you are doing well! I wish you the best of luck aswell, if you need any more help or some more questions feel free to ask!:)
Edit :
Also I purchased this electric comb that zaps them dead without any oils necessary. I suggest that device in the future aswell
Omg my mom can't nit comb me behind my neck cos I have the worst soar and it has blood on it!
Same! It gives me red swellings I have it all over my head 😭
I had lice since 3rd grade and my mom just doesn't care anymore..I wanna get them remove so badly😔 but I cant...i just dont want them :C and I dont wanna go bald 😔 please help
Buy some head lice shampoo or something and comb ur hair with a comb for lice (idk what its called) if it wont work, and if ure lice is still there put mayonaise in ur hair for 8 hours
@@grpryovv7714 thanks
I also have them from 3 class now I am in 6 grade and I still have it 😓😓😓😥😥
@@kalpanasharma7184 same I had them since 3rd and I'm in 8th but one day we gonna get rid of them😊💕💖
@@thegreatpretender5563 yeah we will
Watching this makes my head itchy too
I have head lice and I got it from going to kentucky for a few days with my family. Idk who had it, but it was a female lice bug on my scalp... i did the treatment today but i may just shave my head bald because this is the 4th time having it and i cant take it anymore.
Don't have to shave. There is a solution called 'perlice', removes them in one wash. Ask your local pharmacist.
my lice came back again coz' of my little sister and its been my insecurity im always scared if other people touch my hair because they might see the lice

I got head lice from my school last month
Easiest way to detect them its night the're active, I went with 2 fingers in my hair like a claw and menaged to get one out
Bleach did you drink your username?
Colin dude the 2 thinger thing doesn't work
TAKEN DOWN
Plz tell me your joking

People in the Western world keep saying that personal hygiene has nothing to do with head lice. But where I'm from, head lice is almost unheard of... It's very rare. And the rare few who do get it are people who don't wash their hair often.
I don’t have lice bc at school we did live check and I had no lice and I fall straight to sleep
But I have😓😓😓😓
Lucky
can black people get lice or just whites? because we have different hair texture
Its still hair, you can even get lice at the vaginal hair
I think it's harder for blacks to get because because of the stuff they put in their hair. It seemed like when my kids were in a mostly black school that they never got it, now we moved and it's mostly white kids and we are dealing with it and it sucks.
@@firasi0348 But that's a different type.
Well what was the treatment
Today morning I found out I have lice in my head .. I cried a lot.. now I am having depression....... Exam+ lice = high depression 🙁
So how is the exam went
Sorry mate 😢
But so does dandruff
Who else got them in 6th grade but now there in 9th grade because I don't have it but when I experienced it, It was fucken terrible I used to have fun and play with friends, But when I saw a scratch from a student and1 week later I felt a scratch in my head and I thought it was normal after 4 weeks I started scratching more but then I had to go get my hair done by lice doctors whatever they are.
Does anyone know where I can buy some head lice?
Antonio Natali yes right here how much would you like?
best friends well I need like a lot. Can you produce mhmhm like 20 head lice for like for 20$?
Antonio Natali sure can do and what is your way of paying gonna be😂
Antonio Natali wtf😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀
Thought I had head lice. Turns out I just have psoriasis. Phew
Oof
My mom said it’s just my nervous system that’s making me itch my head
I had never got rid of head lice i tried mayonnaise last time and it worked but they came back l try mayonnaise today and I don't know what's going to happen
Thanks so much for your comment Maria! Sounds like you may want to talk to a healthcare provider or pharmacist. Hope you feel better!
I’m glad that I don’t have head lice.
Andrea Patane then why are you watching it?
I watched this bc I’ve found 17 LICE OVER THE PAST WEEK
Can I use hair dryer to kill lice on my hair
Yes you can. The heat from the hair dryer will definitely kill the lice, as well as their eggs. Just make sure to use the highest setting. You can also use the hair dryer on your bed and pillow cases to kill those lice too.
@@TheWaynelds thanks n

Damn, chief J had the cops I met been like you; I'd probably still be in Cruces. carry on...
I get those dumbos head lice the second time I had lice it was a black worm that was so little
I check out all these symptoms :(
Rub meat in your hair til it starts to stink
Let it sit for an hour, wash it off in the sink
Then take some mayonnaise, rub it into your roots
Wipe it all off on an old pair of boots
Spin in a circle, clap your hands twice
Now you ain't got any lice
Charon Frost you sure cuz that sounds like pain to me
@@jemeilleure It's a reference to Potter Puppet Pals 😅
Shit this vid why did I even see this for no fucking reason
Personal hygiene- hA JOKES ON YOU MOM I DO WASH MY HAIR THOROUGHLY STOP USING MY HAIRBRUSH PLEASE-
