Avatar n tn hi im 25 years of age and i have oily dandruff scalp and my hair is not growing back is this some sort of skin disease on my head?
20723179 tn?1504674864 s so darn itchy. My hair is still growing I can tell cause I have baby hairs, and I cut my hair really short (10in because it was falling so much) and I can tell that it has gotten longer, but I can tell that my hair is definitely thinner especially on the side and crown of my head. The only thing that I could think of that could be causing my hair to fall out was working at the place with mold. Would that be logical to think or has it been to long for something like that to be affecting me.
Avatar m tn Since surgery the entire back of my head has been pretty numb which I know is normal. Recently my scalp is so itchy around the incision it is driving me nuts!! I know this is a normal phase of healing and the nerves in my scalp are regenerating and I am starting to have more sensation around the incision now. I remember my c-section incision itching but not nearly like this!
Avatar f tn Prenatals help your hair grow much faster than before and your scalp could be sore from hair growing much quicker than usual.
Avatar m tn im 19 years old i got this red spot in my head scalp looks more like a pimple but it's been there for couple of months, it doesn't hurt it;s not itchy . but im losing hair there and the hair that its growing its white what do i do?
Avatar n tn My hair fell out after chemo, now my scalp is bumpy and itchy, anything I can do?
Avatar f tn You have to see a doc for a diagnosis. It could a minor skin condition since the skin isn't itchy. It is probably unrelated to the hair loss - which many people discover doesn't last forever. You might try a daily dandruff shampoo which is generally often up of a skin exfoliant plus tar which binds the loose skin to the shower water so it goes away each time you shower.
Avatar n tn I am a licensed cosmetologist and let me tell you; dandruff is caused by a FUNGUS. Dry skin & dandruff are two completely unrelated hair diseases. I have experienced exactly what you are going through right now and you must treat it as dry skin not dandruff. Selsun blue won't do you any good because it contains a medication used for treating the dandruff fungus. Head and shoulders may help because it is targeted for dry, itchy scalp.
Avatar f tn I have very itchy scalp...it's very sore when I touch it and when I scratch it....it itches so bad that I can't help but to scratch My head. I try to scratch as soft as I can but it very tender.  The itching and soreness is only in the middle of my head . The crown area..my hair is thinning a little in that area and it kind of feel a little scaby; but I can't really tell.  I am a 24 year old female. Black African American.  I don't take no medication.
Avatar f tn My scalp is salty, itchy, growing bumps. My dermotolgist froze some of the bumps but every day I wake up to new ones. My scalp is waxy, I can actually peel it off. My Dr. said scalp was ok but he was in a hurry to see next patient. Time is money, you know.
Avatar n tn Try using t gel by neutrogena, that does sound like psorosis. T gel is very helpful, and it's not expensive I use it because I get acne on my scalp from using hair spray And it works wonders even though it is made for psorosis. It's main ingredient is coal tar so it doesn't smell pleasant but it's worth a try. Also if you had lice you'd see it crawling.
Avatar f tn My dermatologist prescribed steroids and the rash went down, but the itchy scalp and flaking and hair loss are still going on - three weeks later. I want to know if this is hormonal and stress-related (my job is requiring me to work 12-hour days and is a stressful PR position AND I work a job on the weekends because my PR job doesnt pay what I owe in student loans) - this on top of having to deal with becoming pregnant (unplanned) and then losing that pregnancy.
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.
5255779 tn?1414034937 Hi, yes I am only 5 weeks and have really dry itchy scalp which is a first for me, but it is normal due to the hormonal change.
Avatar m tn i have a similar problem. the skin itches at scalp as soon as it starts sweating a little. that means if i step into the sun for a minute, it starts to itch really bad. and i can feel the flakes sticking to the roots of a10-12 hair, holding them together. it is as if it was a wet flaky paste that settled there and then dried up. i have to scratch it away really hard to get it off the scalp. also, the hairline is receding and the redness is evident in all the scalp wherever i scratch it.
Avatar f tn When I wake up my skin is so oily and my hair is also. Why?? Anyone else having this problem and if u are, what's the sex of the baby? I read oily skin and hair means boy! Is it true?
Avatar f tn I also have had the problem with an itchy scalp that feels like it is burning. I have to use shampoo/conditioner that does not contain soy protein or any type of soy. I hope you get some relief.....
977806 tn?1249067346 I just purchased some Organic Root Stimulator, used it earlier but scalp itching again. This is not driving me too crazy but I would like to know if this is any sign I may have hair loss issues? I have seen the forum links on the hair loss but nothing much on itching. There doesn't seem to be any hair loss at the moment. I took my 5th shot on Wednesday. Thanks for any insight.
Avatar m tn My hair was thinning for the past 2 years,when the hair is about to fall out i get strong tingly/itchy sensation on that spot and if i pull my hairs i can see bunch of hairs,sometimes its one and sometimes there are 6-7 hairs and all of them have white bulb at the end(They never seem to grow back).Those hairs look healthy and thick,thinner hairs are rare.
Avatar n tn I have very itchy and puss filled 'spots' only in my hair. I have been reading around and am trying to find out if this is acne, folliculitis or something else. The marks are puss filled and then crust over. They seem to be never ending as Ive had them for years with no real change. Ive used lots of different shampoos and conditioners so I don't think they are chemically related. I keep clean hair washing 2 or three times a week so I don't think its poor hygene or over washing..
Avatar f tn White and black piedra its a yest that is growing,in tbe hair, if u,put up your hair when wet thats what's it caused from, I have it to and just started to uae tgel shampoo to get ride of it
Avatar f tn t blow dry either. And still it will fall out. I lost almost half my hair in 13 weeks. It slowly stopped and is growing back. Only to fall out again when I start tx.
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.
