Lice exposure question!


Question: Lice exposure question
How long after exposure to lice does your head start to itch!? I babysat for a family and then 2 days later I got a call saying all the kids got lice from school!. Not sure how long it was before they figured it out, though!. Right now my head kind of itches in one spot, but I did just wash my hair so it might just be shampoo that didnt rinse all the way out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well it would start to itch when the lice start to bite, but if there are only a couple lice on your head at the moment you might not notice they are there until they multiply!. Get someone to search your head, especially behind the ears and around your neck!. The eggs will be very tiny and look kind of like little sesame seeds stuck to your strands of hair!.
