Avatar f tn I get this feeling of something crawling under my skin and scalp and I get very itchy. At night is when I get it most. what could this be?
Avatar f tn Itchy head, in the hair, around the ears only. I have no visible irritation on my scalp. The itching feels more like an occasional crawling than an itching on the skin's surface. This itch is not constant, but occurs consistantly throughout the day. I use hair color. I have no health problems aside from 2-3 migraines monthly and mild anemia. This has been happening for about a year. Any ideas as to what I should check into for a remedy? Thanks in advance for the help.
Avatar n tn For about six years now I have had recurring sores on my scalp and a very itchy scalp at times. The sores are deep, scab over eventually but the scabs are very thick and do not go away on their own, even after months. While they remain the area is very painful and tight. I have to remove them myself, use topical drying agents and anticeptics. What remains is a significant dent in my scalp where hair will no longer grow. Has anyone else experienced these?
Avatar m tn Diffuse thinning throughout but most noticeable in the hair line and crown. My scalp is severely itchy and irritated. Also 3-4 months ago I started developing skin infections on my face that were cured with antibiotics. I think these infections may be due to touching the rash and then touching my face? The hair that falls out is also healthy and still appears to have a little root. I recently went through an extensive amount if emotional stress.

Avatar f tn I'm on victrelis triple therapy and just recently started to develop really itchy scalp. Feeling like I want to scratch it right off. Any advice?
Avatar n tn I have an extremely itchy scalp that has been like this for a month or so. Now it is happening on the rest of my body. Sometimes there is a rash where it is itchy but mostly no rash.
Avatar m tn Hi- I have had the same feeling for the past three weeks. Especially my face and scalp. I thought it might have been scabies but the doctor stated it was a reaction to a bug bite and that scabies don't infest the scalp and face, gave me anti-itch cream and wrote me off. After two weeks, I still itch but now it's accompanied by pins and needles sensation which increases the itching. I also get tiny pimple like bumps immediately followin the itch.
Avatar f tn Yes! I noticed that I'm starting to break out in the barely noticeable rashes, especially on my tummy and thighs.
Avatar n tn Hello, Such symptoms of skin crawling are called parasthesia. They are common in alcoholics and metabolic disorders like diabetes, hypothyroidism, and hypoparathyroidism. They can also be due to peripheral vascular disease, vitamin B12 deficiency or malnutrition. Get your blood sugar and thyroid hormones levels evaluated. You can take some vit B12 for some days and see if the tingling is gone or not.
Avatar f tn I used Clobetesol solution (prescription) for my scalp. I had an itchy scalp which was associated with a rash on my scalp. It worked great.
Avatar n tn the itchying started on my scalp then my back, after a week it went to my legs then my arms and chest. although now my scalp back and chest is only now and again, my legs and arms are so bad. there is no time of day or anything i see that makes it worse or better. showres and baths dont help. am only one where i live with it. ive tried loads of creams and tablets, ive had every blood tests going with all clear. no doctors seem to help me. ive taken 3 different allergy tablets but dont help.
Avatar n tn Hi, I am visiting my sister. She has just finished her 3rd chemo (taxol/carbo-IV) She is having a time with nausea and it is day 9. she cannot take compazine. she uses zofran but I was told that is not really effective for delayed nausea. Any suggestions??? Also she is complaining she has a very itchy scalp. she uses Eucerin lotion. Any suggestions???
Avatar f tn I put my hair half up half down (mine is long) so I get it on my lower scalp (above my neck, on scalp behind my ears etc) and crown/top of my head. You really dont need it on your hair, just scalp so splitting my hair works best. Only wash it every two days. Dr can prescribe clobetasol for itchy spots if it gets worse. Water, sunshine and keeping stress low also helps a lot:) I hardly have issues anymore.
1148619 tn?1332010984 I know the itchy skin and scalp has been hashed over and I feel like I have a handle on the skin, lotions, humidifier, cool showers, etc but the itchy scalp is not calming down. I wonder what people think while talking to me and I constantly itch scalp. My doc looked and there is no dandruff. I tried hot oil packs, all sorts of different shampoos, etc. thinking of going to salon and see if they have a suggestion. I know I saw somewhere here recently this being mentioned.
Avatar f tn t have scaly, flaky, itchy, red skin; just itchy scalp and some pimples. I also have had no hair loss; if only I could on my legs and underarms, ha ha. That's why I asked if it could be related to rosacea. Has anyone every heard of rosacea spreading to the scalp; I know it can affect your eyes.
Avatar n tn What would cause excessive hair loss (have already had thyroid checked and ruled it out) and chronic scaly, itchy, flaky scalp problem? would this be a fungal infection and is there something that is available to use over the counter for this?
Avatar f tn I have had itchy scalp and arms that have gradually gotten worse since about 10 months ago. Initially, we had gotten lice a few times from my family, and had taken care of that. I still continue to have scalp and arm itching, which is worse when I am hot, sleeping, or wearing long sleeves. I have been to both a primary care doctor and my dermatologist, who cannot find anything wrong with me.
Avatar n tn I've never had any issues with my hair, but all of I've noticed when washing it and brushing it alot more is coming out than normally would. And it is alot thinner in just a couple weeks. My scalp is itchy like no other and I've used ever dandruff shampoo, home remedies, even cortisone cream on my scalp...nothing seems to keep the itch away.
7827642 tn?1396958758 15 weeks and 5 days and my scalp has been super itchy here lately as well as parts of my face and my forehead. Sometimes others parts of my body will itch but not all the time. What could be going on? I don't see the doctor again until Tuesday of next week.
Avatar n tn Hi, Seborrhoeic eczema (also Seborrheic dermatitis AmE, seborrhea) is a skin disorder affecting the scalp, face, and trunk causing scaly, flaky, itchy, red skin. It particularly affects the sebum-gland rich areas of skin. Soaps and detergents such as sodium laureth sulfate may precipitate a flare-up, as they strip moisture from the top layers of the skin, and the drying property of these can cause flare-ups and may worsen the condition.
