It appears that I may have caught Pubic lice (pediculosis pubis or crab lice). The following web sites provide some information:

Am going to Dr for confirmation.
Thx,

: I've been getting tiny red flecks inside my underwear (on both sides of scrotum but not directly underneath) for several days. There are approx 35-50 tiny flecks left on either side, the flecks range in size from tip of straight pin, to butt of typical straight pin.
: Also, a couple of weeks ago I had tiny red pimples that itched on the inside of my thigh -- my Doctor positively identified them (visually only) as "nothing more than jock itch - I've seen hundreds of cases, and that's exactly what that is". A couple of days prior to the jock itch outbreak, I found two tiny flesh-colored warts (size of butt of typical straight pin) on the inside of my thigh. After application of an antifungal cream (Lamisil: Terbinafine hydrochloride 1%) the itchy pimples vanished but the wartish thing remains. The entire pubic area now itches, though, but not fiercely (I'm wondering if itching is caused by stress - I AM under huge amounts of stress right now).
: Does this sound like anything you've seen before? Should I ask my Doctor for any test in particular?
: Thanks,
