And the controversy isn't usually about where
they got infected, but instead revolves around how you are
going to get rid of the lice.
On one side of the debate are the people who believe that
head lice have developed resistance to regular treatments,
so that they no longer work. Other experts believe that
resistance is not a big problem, and treatment failures are
because parents didn't remove the nits or that the child was
misdiagnosed.
Head Lice Symptoms
The main symptom of a head lice infestation is an itchy
scalp from the bites of the lice. These bites can then
become infected, and may appear red or crusty, and may lead
to your child developing swollen lymph glands in his neck.
Diagnosis of Head Lice
In addition to having the symptoms listed above, children
with head lice will have gray or reddish brown live head
lice scurrying around their scalp. Lice are small, about the
size of a sesame seed, and although they don't fly or hop,
they can crawl very fast, making them hard to spot.
Another sign that can help you make the diagnosis, is
finding nits, or lice eggs, attached to your child's hair.
Nits are small, oval shaped and usually a yellowish-white
color and are firmly attached to the side of hair shafts. If
you confirm that your child does have live lice or nits, it
is important that you don't panic about your child's head
lice.

use chemical products as these may cause harm. Picksan

and safely against lice.

comb. Comb from the top down, beginning at the roots.
• Repeat the treatment outlined above 10 days later.
