I think it is folliculitis. I was prescribed by physician Amoxicillin Clavulanate 625 mg 1 tab thrice daily + Linezolid 600 mg 1 tab twice daily along with B-complex cap for 7-10 days.
I took the medication for 7 days and all the infection seemed to disappear. But after 2 weeks of finishing my medication, the infection seems to re-occur.
Please advise.
When not using the Nizoral shampoo, use Neutrogena shampoo like this, or the green color if your scalp is oily:

I find this at CVS drug stores usually. Get the conditioner too if you need conditioner, and only use it on the ends - keep all conditioner off your scalp. Neutrogena has no gluten and is very calming to inflamed scalps.
Perifolliculitis 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.

Anyways these last 6 months I have really been balding. I also have lots of dandruff. I usually shampoo twice a week and condition 3 times a week. I also wear a showercap on some days as too not wet my hair as I heard that is good for clearing the dandruff. Nothing has worked. I have used many different anti-dandruff shampoo with no luck. My scalp is itchy and feels EXTREMELY dry but at the same time if I run fingers through my hair it feels oily.
About two years ago I switched to a shampoo without SLS and the eczema disappeared (to the touch) within days (and never returned). 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.
Try keeping the hair lose or keep it in a moose ponytail. The scalp should be washed with a mild normal shampoo as often as desired.

I have used T-gel of various strengths, tea tree shampoos, shampooing twice, shampoo and conditioner, etc.. From what I understand is that I should shower more because of my oily skin and hair, but if I do that the bumps get worse and so does the dryness of my scalp.
I shower EVERY morning, so it is not a hygiene issue. I get the occasional pimple on my face due to my oily skin, but I have never had sever acne.

For head treatment, I will use Stieprox shampoo with Ciclopirox Olamine 1.5% w/w which relieves my scalps itching & scaling issue.. a bit expensive but it works for me :)
I think I will continue using this tablets until I get examined by derma specialist.

You can treat flaking and dryness with over-the-counter dandruff or medicated shampoos. Shampoo the hair vigorously and frequently (preferably daily). Active ingredients in these shampoos include salicylic acid, coal tar, zinc, resorcin, ketoconazole, or selenium. On the face topical steroid under a dermatologist’s consultation are required.
If the symptoms persist, then it would be best to get it confirmed from a dermatologist.
I sincerely hope that helps.
