How do you know if you have lice or dandruff?

Head lice: ask a friend with good eyesight to examine your scalp closely in a bright light. Body lice: examine the seams of clothes you have been wearing next to the body. I mean take them off and look at them straight away. It's no good if you take them out of your drawer. Pubic (crab) lice: Look at the skin under your pubic hair with a magnifying glass. All these lice are very small, whitish, and look like little crabs or scorpions. They move slowly.


What are red nits?

Red nits are the eggs of lice, specifically head lice, which can appear reddish in color when they are freshly laid. They are often found attached to hair shafts close to the scalp and can be mistaken for dandruff or hair follicles. These nits become more visible as they mature and are typically oval-shaped, with a sticky substance that helps them adhere to the hair. Identifying and treating lice infestations promptly is important to prevent spreading and further irritation.
