Head lice treatment

2023-10-24 06:27:35
Hi, I have head lice issue since many years. Now I have observed broken skin on many places on the scalp due to this. How do I get rid of them asap. Also are treatments like perlice etc good? Will they lead to hairfall etc and can they be applied on broken skin?
