THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND WHILE APPLYING HEAD LICE MEDICINE

CHILD HEAD LICE CONTROL

Whether your child is a toddler or he goes to the school, head lice is one of the major problems that people come across. They look for various methods of child head lice control so they can keep their children’s heads clean. Many people go for the comb out method while others opt for medical treatment of head lice. If you are using the comb-out method then you don’t have anything to worry about because it is easy and simple. However, if you are choosing to use the medicine on your child’s head, then here are a few things that you should keep in mind:

• Don’t mix anything in the medicine and don’t dissolve it into anything. Just read the directions that are mentioned on the back of the medicine and use the medicine accordingly.
• Make sure that you apply the medicine by yourself. You shouldn’t let the children apply medicine because children usually put the fingers in their mouth or rub their eyes and it can be pretty dangerous.
• When you are rinsing off the medicine, do so in the sink instead of a shower. This is because when you run the water over the head in the shower, everything would run down to the face and it may irritate your child’s eyes. Don’t use very hot water for rinsing your child’s head. Use Luke warm water as it is the most effective in cleaning all the medicine.
• If your child is a toddler or is below 7 years of age, never leave him alone with the medicine as it is poisonous and is very harmful if ingested.
• If you have taken the medicine once, wait for about 7 to 10 days before the next application.
