ASK Dr Martin
I’m spotty down below
Q I have itchy, red spots in my pubic area and brown powdery stuff in my knickers. What is it?
Georgie, Brentwood
A Could be symptoms of pubic lice, also known as crab lice. The spots are an allergic reaction to bites, and – sorry, this is yucky – the brown powder is louse poo.
