Avatar f tn For my scalp I use is a tree tea oil shampoo. It tingles a bit on your scalp when u wash but it relieves dry scalp which causes the itch. I hope this helps and good luck with your little guy!
Avatar f tn Shoulders shampoo for itchy scalp, Nizoral shampoo and Neutrogena Tar shampoo, however, nothing has improved my scalp. It started about five months ago and it is getting more severe. Has anyone ever experienced this and what treatment has worked for you?
Avatar n tn In short, I regard the two conditions as separate and unrelated. Acne itself does not affect the scalp. In my experience, many cases of scalp folliculitis are stress-related. Unless a culture actually shows staph germs, I would be skeptical that these bacteria are playing any role here. If a topical antibiotic doesn't help, perhaps a topical steroid might. Ask your dermatologist. Also, be sure never to scratch any of the spots, since that perpetuates the problem. Take care. Dr.
Avatar f tn has been able to give me a good diagnoses or treatment. One Dr. said scalp acne which seems possible and he gave me an antibiotic for acne which actually worked great only my scalp got reallys dry. Ask your doctor to try you on Minocycline to see if maybe you have bacteria in your skin. I do get to go see another Dr. in a few weeks.....wish me luck!
Avatar f tn Fearing that those would leave me marks I went to dermatologist and was prescribed acne clear gel, hidrate lotion and adaferin gel. I have been using acne gel and hidrate lotion from one month my acne settled well. But from last 3 days I am getting very bad white flakes on face. My face is tight and some time applying lotion burns my face. White flakes have appeared first time on my face. I am very scared does this resembles dermatitis? I also have little bit itching on face.
Avatar n tn I made a profile here just to ask if anyone has had a similar opinion. It has happened several times by now. After I stop using H&S shampoo (one type only) cystic acne appear on the scalp of my head. They are not painful but are rather big and full with gooy material. Then i start using it again and my scalp skin returns to normal. Does anyone know the ingredients they use in this shampoo and are there any side effects?
Avatar m tn I've been having these acne/pimples start in my scalp, then they get irritated and pop. Sometimes they'll get very big and form like a bump and my hair would fall off. The bumps hurt like a sore and eventually it goes away after a month or so.
Avatar f tn I've been noticing a lot more acne all over my neck, but mainly the front (super visble) and right around my hairline on the back. Also been getting a lot of weird, random "scabs" all over my scalp. Never had these problems before pregnancy. I know acne is normal, but i haven't gotten any on my face. Is any of this normal? More concerned about the "scabs", because i dont scratch my head much, but when i do, i find these. Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
Avatar m tn Hi i am a 26 yr old male. i have a moderately itchy scalp that gets oily by the end of the day & have occasional acne on the scalp. also i have significant hair loss due to it.Recently, i have noticed more frequent occurrence of acne on my face & rarely on my chest & back. i wash my hair everyday with a mild shampoo to remove the oiliness. it just doesn't seem to help. i somehow feel the itchy scalp, acne & facial acne are related.
Avatar m tn thanks a lot!!!
Avatar m tn I started developing very bad sclap acne in the winter 3 years ago. I had moderately long hair and it would continuously itch with my scalp being mostly red and acne in various places. I tried many shampoos to ease the itching and redness Nioxin, Head and Shoulders,Selsun Blue, Nizoral, Neutrogena T-Gel Extra Strength, non helped. I noticed when my hair was short it helped the redness and acne go away. I went to a dermatologist and he said its just stress.
Avatar n tn i am 21 yr old boy, in the center-back of my scalp there are small non itchy white bumps, seems like layers of dandruff , when i harshly comb at tht part then a lot of dandruff gets created, i use zpto and ketoconazole shampoo but these non itchy bumps remain.
Avatar m tn I have, what I can only describe as acne which is confined to my scalp. I am troubled by lots of spots and pimples, some have yellow puss in, some are just red spots. All are very sore to the touch. The main area of outbreak is a band across the back of my scalp from temple to temple, the sort of area where a hat band would contact your head. The spots are constantly appearing but I have periods of more severs outbreak. I have oily hair which I have to wash every day with baby shampoo.
1009876 tn?1326490077 One month after, I started getting these hard red sores on my scalp. They are painful (especially when I brush my hair) and I find myself itching or picking them sometimes. Right now I have about 6 of them in different spots on my scalp. There seem to be more, and they seem to get worse roughly 2 weeks after my menstrual cycle. Not sure if that has anything to do with them though. I do have sensitive skin, and have noticed since being off the pill, my face is a lot more oily than before.
Avatar n tn Since August last year i have been suffering from pustules on my scalp, chest and face. i had heavy dandruff as well. I went to the doctor in September and upon pus culture found Staph bacteria. I was advised antibiotics, soap, shampoo etc. It went down. There was another outbreak in Jan and underwent a similar course again. Now i had a very heavy re-occurence with thick pustules in groups over scalp and chest and pustules on face. I went for a pus culture and E Coli was diagnosed.

Avatar m tn I have problem with my scalp, it started a 4 months ago. I have acne all over my scalp, maybe around 5 to 6 of them at any time. Its itchy, red skin, inflammation around the area for a few days until i apply ketoconozole cream. I hav tried taking kotoconazole tablet (400mg /day) and fluconozole on a weekly basis. I try going to a hot spring (natural) which believe to have to cure. so far Its getting better but i still feel something on my scalp, which is not normal. 1.
Avatar m tn Within the last few months I have been getting a rash, itchy, with bumps that feel a bit like acne to the touch, on my scalp. I have tried many shampoos, all of which provoked the same reaction after more than one use. The only thing I tried (out of desperation) which caused no reaction was a very diluted solution of baking soda in water, but it was not very friendly to my hair.
237053 tn?1258828426 I also forgot to mention that my I've had problems with a dry flaky,scaly scalp since the onset of sx too. It isn't my whole scalp just a small area near the front right side.
Avatar f tn Finesse makes a Revitality Scalp Balm and you could probably find a scalp mask over the internet. Aveda makes Scalp Remedy, which is best used at night based on experience. These products are also okay for sensitive skin, again from experience. If these OTC treatments don't work and if you have the ability, see trichologist experienced in hair and scalp health. Hope you see relief soon.
Avatar m tn It is characterised by small, very itchy pustules within the scalp, often most troublesome on the frontal hairline. The scalp should be washed with a mild normal shampoo as often as desired. Antidandruff shampoos containing antifungal agents such as ketoconazole or ciclopirox are sometimes helpful. Apart from that you need topical and oral antibiotics, antihistamines, oral steroids and topical tretinoin. My sincere advice is to get it examined from a dermatologist.
Avatar m tn I've had the same problem for 10yrs plus (I'm 38) . HAd a history of acne as a teenager and was on doxycyline for years and minocycline, even septrin, but ended up on accutane which cleared the acne. Nowadays I don't have facial acne anymore just the folliculutis on scalp only. It's really itchy, uncomfortable and sore when it's bad but I know how to control it.
Avatar m tn I'am also clean 56 days from Methadone and I was wondering the same thing I have a patch on my face that is red and I have had it for awhile now wondering when it was going to go away. I was told methadones out of your system withing a couple days so I don't know if it is from that or what.
Avatar n tn Shoulder classic clean shampoo for oily scalp, Rogaine for hair loss, ketoconazole shampoo 2% for oily scalp, Clindamycin phosphate gel USP 1% for acne, and corticosteroids (such as fluocinolone acetonide) to reduce inflammation. Okay, first of all, Head & shoulder really does causes my hair to fall off more, so I kind of stop using it after the first month!
Avatar n tn There are areas of red that coalesce and thicker areas of skin. I have tried washing with Selsun Blue shampoo before, and occasionally tried Clindamycin gel on my skin with little improvement. Can anyone suggest a diagnosis and a cure? I have included the picture below.
Avatar f tn These sores can be caused by viral, bacterial or fungal infections. Acne and clogged hair shafts can cause scalp sores, too. Cysts on the scalp are another cause of scalp sores. In folliculitis there is inflammation of one or several hair follicles on the skin causing red, bumpy and pimple-like lumps.Tinea capitis causes round, red, scaly bumps on the scalp's surface.
