Avatar n tn 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. I don't know what is happening.

Avatar m tn The specialist spent several mins going over the results of the condition and how to treat it and even how I could regulate my meds and look for early signs. He did say it had to do with Bacteria I believe and I think the eye doc said the conjuntivitis did as well . I use eye wash and Celluvisc for severe dry eye on a reg basis and of course the eye wash rinsed the mucus out but when bad it returns within 30-60 mins. Is there any eye drop that kills bacteria if thats the issue here?
Avatar f tn Hello, First of all, stress or hormonal changes may lead to excess oil produced by the oil glands in your scalp. This causes the harmless bacteria that live in the scalp to proliferate and feed off the oil, which produces the odor and may make the hair greasy. Secondly it can be due to dandruff can cause either an overly dry scalp with itchy white flakes that may be waxy or greasy, or it can manifest as an oily scalp with scales. Eat a healthy diet.
Avatar f tn Yes I would suggest using a head and shoulders type shampoo for dandruff (you may not have dandruff but the itchyness can be apart of that) if it persists, I'd suggest maybe going to the doctors, they may be able to prescribe something for it.
Avatar m tn I had gone into the DR regarding thinning of my hair, excessive dandruff and dry skin / folliculitis on many parts of my body. Could all these symptoms be related to EBV? I hadn't seen anyone else discussing dandruff or folliculitis on this forum so maybe it isn't related to the EBV at all. I also have some tingling in my feet/hands which it appears is pretty common with EBV. Thanks in advance, a very helpful forum!
Avatar f tn I had a lump at the base of my neck swollen lymph node,"that just felt bad and worried me", it was tested and neg for" cancer but I had it removed anyway. It did not hurt, yours does. I would first take a picture of it (cell phoe behind the ear, click) so you can see it clearly to scrutinize it. Does it look or feel crusty, scab ? Blistery? Red? Oosing? Can it be drained? Cancer is a real scare so is MRSA.
Avatar m tn Pityposporum folliculitis. Antibiotic kills skin bacteria which normally keeps yeast in check. Doctors misdiagnose and prescribe more antibiotic and /or topical or oral steroids. Both make it worse. I had same thing until i read about this. Had lotrimin at house and saw dramatic improvement in an hour. Tea tree oil had also helped some. Also nizoral dandruff shampoo.
