The affected areas are in the T-Zone and scalp. These areas are very sensitive and red. When I leave the areas alone, they develop yellowish scales in about 2 days. The scales cover up some redness so should I leave them or wipe them off? I experience constant flushing and burning only in these areas. Any topical product or lotion makes my condition worsern and showers seem to do the same. Sunlight makes my face feel a little better. Anyone have any tips or ideas or anything?
For a couple years now I've had fairly bad flakes--as in they never let up all day long. They are particularly numerous whenever my hair is dry after I washed it. I cut my own hair with clippers and keep it very short year-round, 1/8" -1/4", so the flakes were never a problem, it seemed. No itching, no excessive amounts of it, etc.. I would try moisturizing shampoos, which wouldn't work; so I'd try dandruff shampoos, which also didn't work.
My scalp will be red with blood, but it is a clear liquid that makes my hair stick together at night. It started about 3 years ago and then went away and came back last year and never cleared up. When I do itch my head, I have these big clumps of scabs that come off with it. I have tried T-gel shampoo and nothing is helping. Can you suggest anything? I have also put neosporin on them.
Treatment options include Ointment and creams containing coal tar, dithranol (anthralin), corticosteroids like desoximetasone (Topicort), vitamin D3 analogues (for example, calcipotriol), and retinoids, Psoralen+UVA and PUVB therapy. Over time, psoriasis can become resistant to a specific therapy. Treatments may be periodically changed to prevent resistance developing (tachyphylaxis) and to reduce the chance of adverse reactions occurring.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
I want to use the scalp solution for the dandruff.Please write the trade name of the solution which I can purchase in India.I am suffering from dandruff for almost 15 years and i have tried some will advertised shampoo and other prodicts which are not effective.Somebody has advesed urine therapy.I may use it if possible for me.
Then follow up with another light misting of the scalp and hair with the solution and allow hair to air dry. The vinegar smell will be gone once the hair completely dries. The solution acts as a clarifying agent, removing build from the a scalp and hair while promoting ph levels. It also has anti microbial benefits which kills door causing bacteria. Let me know if it helps.
If I skipped shampooing for one day the itching became unbearable and then the scratching made it worse, causing more of an eruption. Once the scalp developed bumps or flaking then I would use a fluocinonide solution on my scalp - probably any steroid solution would do, but the important part is getting it in solution rather than a cream or ointment – either of those would make a real mess applied where hair is present!
Itchy rash is particularly noticeable on face and scalp, neck, inside of elbows, behind knees, and buttocks.Treatment is with a Corticosteroid ointment which will reduce the inflammation.
But with your history of Psoriasis, it would likely be an extension of that.These measures area must to reduce the recurrence rate.There are many treatments available but because of its chronic recurrent nature psoriasis is a challenge to treat.
Your doctor can also prescribe a topical steroid for this. These meds are available in a solution that is non-greasy for use on the scalp. The one I've used (and found very helpful) is fluocinonide solution. I also didn't do well with strong menthol shampoos or conditioners - they really irritated my skin even more.
Does anyone who has treated know what is good for scalp itch? It is really bugging me. Going to the doc on Tuesday but meanwhile...I am trying not to touch it but it is real uncomfortable.
Thanks!
Honestly i do not know when it started but i am always using my finger to rub on my scalp looking for something to scratch off , i have a serious problem with dandruff it comes and goes and sometimes grow over night.
When i have it bad i notice i have red spots or bumps on my scalp and i need help because i am very scared this might be some sort of disease ... can someone tell me what are these small red spots that appear ?
Apart from that, topical medications like emollients, creams containing coal tar, dithranol (anthralin), corticosteroids like desoximetasone (Topicort), fluocinonide, vitamin D3 analogues (for example, calcipotriol), and retinoids have been routinely used. Phototherapy containing UV A has also been employed. But it is usually seen that psoriasis can become resistant to a specific therapy. Treatments may be periodically changed to prevent resistance developing.
they feel like they are almost underneath the skin of my scalp and Although they are always present on my scalp,the only time they show up is when I scratch them.
Along with these symptoms,I have been struggling with mild diffuse hairloss that seems to occur when these symptoms arise.
I am prone to excema but it usually disappears by now. I have tried nearly everything to get this under control but it like my scalp seems to get used to it and gets worse again.
I am facing scalp itching problem. Whenever I scratch my scalp during itching hair gets falling with small white beads. I went to dermatologist. She gave medicines Keraglo Eva and Dazit. And also given me a liquid solution Mintop for scalp.but still itching and hair falling going on. Wherever small hairs are growing that place getting itchness and small growing hairs also falling.. Because of this I feel very sad. Can you please help me?
Hello,
Linear epiderma nevus result from a genetic abnormality which causes defects in the ectoderm the part of embryos which form the skin. Linear epidermal nevus Lesions generally arise on the trunk and limbs; the scalp and face are not usually involved. No completely effective treatment for linear epidermal naevi exists. Sometimes doctors may recommend topically administered calcipotriol to reduce the wart-like appearance of the affected area.
so... what am i doing? pursuing corticosteroids and calcipotriol? or maybe try just calcipotriol on its own to begin with?
Diprolen gel (14 days) and a cutane solution of adrenal hormones (interval treatment 6 weeks; according to pharmacist this solution was the strongest available (prescription). 10 days of terbinafine cream (rubbed into scalp)
- Pills: Broad spectrum antibiotics (3 months; folliculitis suspected, later ruled out), nizoral pills (3 weeks), fluconazole (50mg/day for 5 weeks), itraconazole (200mg/day for 9 weeks)
-probably forgot something...
Wash them and massage the scalp with olive oil leave it for the night and then wash then next day morning and then if you see any changes after a week .... then thats what it is ....
I would desperatly try to find a solution since their is also no official solution for that as well. One day I used sulfur soap as recommended by a smelly scalp website and after that, the PATM began. At first I thought people were sniffling because they could smell my scalp odor, but later realized I had started to make peoples nose runy. A runy nose soon turned into sneezing, sneezing to coughing, and now flu like symptoms! Yes flu like symptoms.
