Lice eggs, also known as nits, are the oval-shaped, white or yellowish eggs laid by adult lice, typically found attached to the base of hair shafts close to the scalp. This condition is defined as the presence of lice eggs in the hair, which are a stage in the life cycle of lice and can be a sign of an ongoing infestation. Nits are laid by female lice and are firmly attached to the hair with a sticky substance, making them difficult to remove. The primary cause of lice eggs is an infestation of lice, which can be head lice, body lice, or pubic lice. Head lice are the most common, infesting the scalp and hair. Lice eggs are typically laid close to the scalp, as the warmth helps the eggs to incubate and hatch. Treatment for lice eggs involves both eradicating the lice infestation and removing the nits from the hair. The first step is to use medicated lice treatments, such as over-the-counter or prescription shampoos or lotions designed to kill lice and their eggs. These treatments should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions. After treatment, thorough combing with a fine-toothed nit comb is essential to remove any remaining eggs from the hair. It is also important to wash all infested clothing, bedding, and personal items in hot water and dry them on high heat to kill any lice and eggs. If the infestation persists or if nits are difficult to remove, consulting a healthcare provider is crucial for additional guidance and treatment options.
