Common Questions and Answers about Itchy scalp rash on neck
itchy
I also have a rash on my neck and scalp. It started out as a very itchy scalp, particularly behind the ears. My whole family inspected each other for lice - nothing. No one else has the scalp itch. A few days of scratching and wondering, it started spreading down onto my neck with very itchy bumps appearing. My husband has re-inspected me for lice several times.
ve had a rash appear after about 3 weeks post exposure (or at least that is when I first noticed it) on my scalp (back of my neck, just above where the hairline starts). It covers maybe 3-4 inches but doesn't come lower then my hairline. On top of that, I've had very swollen tonsils.
1) Is this something you would expect to be related to ars?
2) Odd question, but we actually fell asleep mid-way for about 10 min where I stayed inside her.
Hi,
I used dove body wash in the shower the other day and noticed that same night that I was itchy on random parts of my body (back, neck, scalp). I did NOT use the body wash on my hair and yet my scalp itches at times. It’s been three days of periodic itching on my face, scalp, shoulders, neck and back (with red bumps/spots scattered on my back and shoulders).
1) Could this periodic itching be from the dove body wash and if so, what do I have?
Hi, I'm a man, had sex activities with a woman of unknown sexual history last week and a couple of weeks before. I used condom all the time. I notice serious rash on her face (part covered by her long hair), neck, and back. She told me she lost 15% of weight in last several months. I'm uncut and didn't take shower after sex. Now, I feel itchy on my skin and a few rash marks on my chest and back. Am I at risk of infecting HIV? Thanks.
Hi I'm 19 years old and i really need help indentfying a rash I have.
I discoverd a couple of days ago a red rash on my neck. It itches like crazy. The back of my neck, around my hair line, has been itching for months. I have always just assumed it was dry skin, or my scalp was dry. There are like 6 different spots on my neck. I am wondering if it is Psoriasis? If anyone has any information, its greatly appriciated.
Two days into it her left ear did the same thing, the base of her neck became irritated and her scalp became itchy as well. We took her to the doctor and he is treating it as an allergic reaction. It has come down a bit with benadryl but it's still here,very itchy and it has spread to her cheeks. One week and 3 days into she isn't much better and I'm wondering if it could be something else?
Seen several doctors in the past 8 months and no one can tell me what I have. At the same time this rash appeared so did psorisis on my scalp. The look like two different things but seem to progress at the same time. Help!

A couple of months later I moved to a warm climate under stress and itchy painful red bumps formed on my scalp near the back of my neck, then on one side of my mid neck. Gradually, small blotchy, bumpy itchy redness developed on both sides of my neck, shoulders, under breasts, armpits and recently my hips! I have been to the doctor 5 times, including 2 Dermatologists. I have been treated for acne, fungus, bed bugs and scabies, and I think just Dermatitis in general.
Not sure why your neck would be itchy unless it's near your scalp/hairline? If so, I started getting this all of a sudden about 3 years ago. I think the doctor called it Seborrheic Dermatitis (a severe type of dandruff). I tried everything (before going to the dermatologist) to get rid of it but I had bad itching, flaking, peeling, and even a little bleeding on my scalp.
Over the past couple of days my scalp has been flaking more than usual. But over the past day or two, my scalp and the back of my neck and my tops of my shoulders feel like it's gotten a light sunburn, but I haven't been out in the sun. I also noticed that the back of my scalp is red in a very splotchy (medical term...I know) fashion. Could this just be stress? I've been under alot lately...or is this actually something?
One such rash was on boob and in research I have found that the VS bra I was wearing could be the culprit. They apparently use formaldehyde in them. I continually have a bad rash that went to my head. Lol literally. Hard to explain. Apparently in people that this has happened to they have eczema or psoriasis all brought about by these bras.
The first time she got it was a few months ago, it started off with a severe itchy scalp and red itchy spots on her neck/back, then she woke up with a shock, her scalp was covered in yellow crust, it was awful she was so distressed, i had to get it out with a nit comb. That time she was suffering from stress.
Now once again it's happening, the weather here in England has been 30c and she works in a School kitchen with no air con so you can imagine how hot it is for her.
The rash started on the back of my neck and started to become so painfully itchy anything that rubs on my neck even clothes irritates me and makes me scratch. Then my scalp became itchy as well but not like the back of my neck. For the past few nights I awake and begin to scratch because it feels like pinching and pain and this need to scratch. It then feels wet and my skin feels rough and dry. I began to use a petroleum like body cream - that only kept my skin moisturized.
My question is if the rash came before or after the bald spot appeared. Usually rashes on the scalp indicate some sort of fungal infection which can contribute to hair loss. They are quite common and treatable.
Another thought I had was Alopecia areata. I suggest googling it to see if the signs/symptoms match.
And don't worry-- Alopecia areata is not life-threatening.
I have had a problem with a VERY itchy, red bumpy rash for months now. I have been to three different doctors, two of whom had no answers for me, the third of which diagnosed me with eczema. The rash starts with clusters of small red bumps, usually on my legs, that get a pale discoloration around them. They become extremely itchy and look like tiny blisters. I have now had them appear on my inner calves, thighs, buttocks, stomach, upper arms, neck, scalp, and groin.
I did what you said and I went back to the doctor today he said to finish my medication like you said he also checked my head and the back of my neck which has a slight rash on the right side and prescribed an anti-inflammatory medicine he thinks I either have an anti-inflammatory infection or could be shingles as I am 50 and have had the chickenpox when I was little so he's not quite sure, and I looked up shingles and I have some of those things but I don't have a rash like that but tod
