Crabs

I got Crabs.

Anyone know how to get rid of them?

I kinda don't want anyone to now about this, and I'm never gonna see the person I got them off ever again.

I am a bloke.

Beruthiel

the only way to get rid of them is to go to your doctor
he will prescribe what is required

you will also have to wash everything you have been wearing, including your bed sheets, towels etc...

i hear that dipping your lad into a tin of baked beans does the trick...

or you could just go to your doctor, its nothing to be ashamed of.

Go to the chemist and get a bottle of head lice lotion, think its called Lyclear. Its what your doctor will prescribe for you anyway. A, erm, friend, had a similar problem, and this is what the doc told him to do.

Advice about clothes, sheets etc is also vital, wash them and iron with a hot iron or else they'll be back in a few days....

Friend had this, was too embarassed to go see his doctor with being a trainee priest and all so he rang an STI clinic who recommended some powder to use, thats available in the chemists. It killed them crabs good.

Maybe ring an STI clinic and ask them.

How are crabs treated?
Medicated creams and shampoos can cure crabs. Some of these treatments are available without a prescription at the drug store. Follow directions carefully. You do not need to shave your pubic hair to remove crabs.

Clothes, bedding, towels, and other items that may contain the lice should be machine washed and dried on a hot cycle setting, or dry-cleaned. Articles that cannot be washed can be sealed in a plastic bag for 72 hours. Fumigation of living areas is not necessary. A person can become re-infested after treatment if exposed to crabs again.

What happens if crabs go untreated?
In addition to the discomfort of the infestation, repeated scratching of the infested area can result in a serious skin infection. If you have symptoms or think you've been exposed to crabs, get examined and treated immediately to avoid any complications and continued transmission.

And Iron with a very hot iron. You should also inform anyone you are living with as Crabs have a tendency too spread within the occupants of a household very quickly.

Otherwise, Crabs are very common. So do not worry or be embarrased Its just part of living. I caught the damn things a lot in my twenties, so much that I used too go into my local pharmacist and ask for a bottle of the pinkish creamy liquid that gets rid of them,as I hated my GP and the pharmacist was very co-operative. Used to have a bath after smearing the liquid all over my body and waiting for it to dry before having to repeat the treatment. Easy and painless and what a relief getting rid of the damned itching.

Anyway, that was a long time ago and they probably have a simpler treatment now.
If that is all you catch. Then you will be some lucky kiddo

When we were young, we used to use fishheads as bait to catch them and them we'd stab them through the stomach with a stick to kill them.

Perhaps this'll work for you?

I remember one lad I knew, brickie living in London. Wasn't sure which of three girls the previuos wknd he'd got them from. Did the sensible thing went to the doctor but the following wknd post very thorough body shave (incl. sack) and treatment with the lotion, etc. he was on the pull again. The bird he pulled found the shaved body look and feel an incredible turn on. So its not all bad

what size were those fukers??!!
this is a rhetorical question, I don't want an answer!

This may be an old wive's tale but i head if you cover the affected area with nutella and get a 4 month old dog to lick it off you will be cured mind you the dog has to be exactly four months old or else it wont work.


On a more helpfull note just go to your GP they will probably have seen much worse things in their time its better than taking medical advice from an internet forum!.

Kell

Lyclear or derbac or ascabiol. Never had crabs but similar skin infestation and any skin infestation pretty much gets treated the same way. Just dont overdo it. It'll fúck your skin up.

Fellatio from the seventh son of a seventh son might work

Make sure you don't pass them on to anyone else anyway.

Jim

Does anyone actually ever listen to Berutheil?

yellum

Ah yeah, its derbac I heard of I think.

Beruthiel, ban all the ones taking the piss. PI doesn't need the circling vultures.

Seriously, just go to a doctor.

They've seem them before, they'll see them many many times in the future (with any luck, not on you).

It's what they do, they aren't going to think it's that odd.

smiles

Go to the doctor.
