Avatar n tn there is no pus or liquid and only blood comes out if picked or scratched, only some of the bumps have hairs coming out of them and the hair not always at the center of the bumps.
Avatar m tn My 5 year old daughter have rash in her hair that and we have been told is is dandruff and was given a sulfur hair oil to used however if is not applied one day the condition worsen. She also have numerous birthmarks over her body she have on on her back that break out in a sore once and become larger after. Can the these both be cancerous. I know of an American solider that had a birthmarks on his buttock and was sore once and later died of Melanoma resulting from this birthmark.
Avatar m tn I have eczema in my eyebrow/upper cheek on the left side of my face. I used to have dandruff, but it has essentially cleared after using zinc shampoo a few times a week. But the skin is still greasy under my brow and on my eyelid, which results in hairs being weak and falling out. Any suggestions to clear up the greasy skin? I've tried hydrocortisone cream, but to little avail. Also, the condition seems to worsen after a night of drinking alcohol - is that part of the problem?
Avatar m tn Is this hair growing back in an odd manor? Or should I be worried about herpes or warts? There is no lesions, sores, discharge, pain in urination..etc.etc. I just flat redness. It isn't even that red.
Avatar m tn Hello mepaule, There are several causes of your symptons. Infections, eczema, psoriasis, etc. The best option is to go to a dermatologist. They will look to the harden flakes and exam your scalp and will prescribe something to heal.
Avatar f tn My son had it at well.
Avatar f tn I went to the emergency room about bumps on the palm of my hand and the itchiness on my legs. He told me I had eczema and prescribed me antibiotic and steroid cream. I asked can eczema be found on the face because I have some bumps on my nose and cheeks and have had a small rash on my neck he replied no eczema is not common on the face. I have had two or three pimple like bumps one on penis and two spaced far apart around my penis..
Avatar n tn Sometimes i get these really knotty like bumps under my skin, and if popped they bleed. I also have that white build-up stuff in the hair follicles on my inner thighs and scrotum. (Not on my ding a ling). It is only noticable if the skin is strecthed. When i sweat it itches and my underwear becomes hella-uncomfortable. I went to the doctor and he told me it was a fungal infection. (folliculitis) He then put me on some type of antibotics.
Avatar n tn Note I am not a doctor, and only have my own experience to go on. I suffer slightly from eczema in other areas, and scratching the anus provokes eczema there too. I seem to need to repeat the hair removal about every three weeks to keep things itch-free. It's better than any medication I've tried.
Avatar n tn t forget to look at your shampoo and your other hair products. There is a sulfite thread in the allergy community you can look up for some information about hair products. With laundry: When all else fails, use baking soda only to launder your clothes. It's what people used before modern detergents. Always double rinse your clothes. NEVER use dryer sheets and other fabric softeners. You don't need these things. We were all brain washed by the manufacturers to believe that we did.
Avatar f tn I also had sex that night (which resulted in a bladder infection). After a few days I started having a very itchy pubic region and would scratch it a lot. This went on for several days until I inspected the Region. There are terrible red spots (flat spots) and a lot of them have white dry skin that flakes away very easily. I also found a bump filled with pus today that popped with the slightest touch. What could this be, skin irritation? Rash, eczema?
Avatar f tn Hello, One of the possibilities for your symptoms is atopic dermatitis or eczema skin. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.
Avatar f tn There are many horror stories about allergies to these hair dyes. There are many man-made chemicals that are so toxic in hair dyes. People were even talking about brands that you might associate with being less toxic or "natural" and what kinds of allergic reactions they have had to these products. You really have to watch these ones that are supposedly "natural", because those also have many man-made chemicals that are very toxic.
Avatar f tn I had a mini break down a few weeks ago to my hubby about the same thing. I'm a mom of 3 and this is now my 4th pregnancy,I'm 22 weeks. I feel huge, and my hair is brittle and lifeless, getting break outs and eczema....I lost it...I know how hard it can be to believe them, just this morning (after a horrible night and only about 4 hours of sleep looking awful) he told me even though I may feel exhausted, I'm still absolutely beautiful...
Avatar n tn Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema.
Avatar m tn Is this skin condition eczema or psoriasis and should I keep using medication? Is there a natural therapy for this condition like lemon juice or coconut oil or anything similar? Tea Tree has failed to work. Here is a picture of the condition on my chin after I shaved. It doesn't look this bad again if I keep my chin hairs short. This was immediately after a hair trim/shave. http://toddwaldorf.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/IMG_2204.
784419 tn?1236261756 Has your DR spoke to you about your diet? Eczema can be traced back to what you eat most of the time. This is especially true for kids. For adults you have to look at the detergents you are using, along with moisturizer. The most important thing is not scratching and to keep applying moisturizer. It can be hard to find one that agrees with your skin. Just after shower apply a liberal coat of a natural moisturizer like coconut oil.
681148 tn?1437661591 I have tried everything I can think of. My scalp is dry and itchy. It sometimes has eczema or dermatitits in addition to this problem. I've added healthy oils to my hair and scalp and left them in. In a short time, my hair is back to its dry, dull and frizzy self. I'm at my wits end with this. I have loads of allergies, so I'm careful as far as that goes. I don't wash more than once every week or every other week.
Avatar n tn I've suddenly had loss of hair in my eyebrows. My skin feels dry and somewhat itchy. What can I do?
Avatar n tn Hello, From the symptoms that you have mentioned, one possibility that can correlate with your symptoms and history is eczema skin. Usually the symptoms are dry, itchy skin but sometimes, eczema may lead to blisters and oozing lesions also. Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema.
