At HoofdZorg Kliniek, we know that the beginning of the school year is exciting not only because of new classes and teachers, but also because it is the time when head lice can make their reappearance.
The Lice Mothers Are Active Again
With the start of the new school year, the lice mothers are getting back to work. They play an indispensable role in the early detection of head lice in primary school pupils. Thanks to their efforts, many cases are detected quickly, allowing us to intervene appropriately.
Don't Forget the Teens!
Although the focus is often on younger children, at HoofdZorg Kliniek we find that we also treat many teenagers. Head lice make no distinction in age! Therefore, we would like to encourage parents to check their teenagers regularly as well. A quick check can prevent a lot of discomfort.
Self-control Is Important
And let's not forget ourselves! Head lice can affect anyone, regardless of age. We therefore recommend checking yourself as well. A simple check with a lice comb can already provide a lot of clarity.
How Can You Check?
- Use a special lice comb
- Comb well from the scalp to the ends of the hair
- Check especially behind the ears and in the neck
- Repeat the check after a week to be sure
