Ectoparasitic Infestation

SE Abdalian. Adolesc Med. 1996 Feb.

The author considers the two primary ectoparasitic infections of the genital region in young men: scabies and pediculosis pubis. In view of the widely held perception that poor hygiene is associated with these parasites, the need for attention to the patient's emotional state is stressed.
