If you are experiencing an extreme itchiness to the genital area, this could be a possible major sign of crabs. Another symptoms or sign would be to see the little white eggs in your pubic hair. These egss are known as nits and can be noticed crawling. If you have these symptoms call your doctor for advice.

You may be able to see the crabs or find their eggs close to the shaft of pubic hairs. Crabs live off of blood so it may be possible to find bluish spots where they have been feeding. You may also experience itching and irritation caused by their pincers. They are common and easily treated.

Crabs are in the same family as lice. So you will have similar symptoms - a lot of itching, the ability to find nits in your pubic hair and little crabs infesting your body.
