Avatar m tn Hi, I used dove body wash in the shower the other day and noticed that same night that I was itchy on random parts of my body (back, neck, scalp). I did NOT use the body wash on my hair and yet my scalp itches at times. It’s been three days of periodic itching on my face, scalp, shoulders, neck and back (with red bumps/spots scattered on my back and shoulders). 1) Could this periodic itching be from the dove body wash and if so, what do I have?
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 In the past 1-2 years, I have developed itchy, red bumps all over my scalp. Some look like red bumps, some are pustules. I've been to the doctor 3 times for it, and they have told me that I have folliculitis of the scalp. One time I was prescribed mupirocin ointment, and another I was prescriped a 10-day cycle of cephalexin. Both treatments were successful in getting rid of the bumps, but they quickly returned once the treatment was finished.
Avatar f tn My fiancee has an itchy scalp, he has a little bit of dandruff but not bad. But my concern is about the pus-filled bumps on the back and sides of his scalp. He has had them for a long time, he went and seen a doctor about them and the doctor just told him that it's like athlete's feet and to put some fungus ointment on them. When my fiancee told me what the doctor had said I was like "That don't sound right.
Avatar m tn Other than that I has a small (1/2 inch size) patch on my leg. (near ankle ). Recently doctor changed the ointment and it worked for the scalp. now scalp is very mild. But I got two new patchs (about 3-4 inch) on both groin and upper thigh. It is very itchy. With the same ointment for head this is slightly controlled. But right hand side is more severe. Now I have painful joints and muscles. Most of the time even i do a little bit of work or walk joints and muscles start paining.

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 A month ago, I got these little red dots on my back and stomach. they're really itchy. suddenly, they've transferred into my arms and legs. after sometime they're gone, my skin became "chicken skin". and now when I feel itchy and scratched my legs, red itchy bumps will appear. They're like mosquito bites. But when I stop scratching, they will be gone after few minutes. What could these be?
Avatar n tn I have also suffered all my life with itchy scalp,dandruff,peeling eyebrows and forehead, redness around the nose and on the chin. I also went through all these chemicals you've described but they gave only temporary relief,like two to three days. About three years ago I read somewhere that in the old days people used cider vinegar for these conditions. Just straight out of the bottle(normally 5-6% strength stated).It helped enormously.
Avatar f tn I have the same thing, and then I connected to the fact that I also have an itchy back and scalp. I noticed my back would itch after eating gluten, I have just now connected it to my legs and scalp. Give it a try!
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.
554777 tn?1215659881 I broke out in a rash over my entire body at 2.5 months...the rash has subsided with some ointment presscribed by my doc, but my skin and scalp are itching all the time. I've tried a few lotions...has anyone with a similar problem found anything that gives them relief.
Avatar n tn Help. About 4 months ago, I developed an itchy scalp (no flaking), eyebrows, eyelashes and soon itchy bumps all over my face. Now, it's slowly moved to chest, shoulders and back. I've noticed it's where I sweat. Also, it clears up as it moves around. In other words, my face and chest are much better, but shoulders and back are new. I work out 5 days a week. Two one hour sessions of cardio make me sweat in all of these affected areas.
Avatar n tn Is the ringworm on your scalp or just your skin on your body? If it is the skin on your body, you can use a cream or ointment to get rid of it. If it's on the scalp, you need to take something orally. Ringworm is extremely hard to get rid of, so it's going to take some time. Throw out any hats or anything that the ringworm has come into contact with. We had ringworm (three of the children including the baby and my husband).
Avatar f tn During tx I had a very severe case of what they called plaque on my scalp. It covered most of my scalp and was pretty thick white stuff. ( Yuk) I flaked from it constantly and nothing helped for me not even what was prescribed by the doctor. So I just remained itchy and my head was literally FULL with it. Soon as I finished txing it went away...except for one teeny little piece. Being that I didnt have much hair all you could see was a "snow covered" like scalp. IT DOES GO AWAY!
5045042 tn?1365890100 I slathered my privates with a mix of cortisone creams (ointment was better there) and pawpaw ointment or similar. Around the anal area I used topical ointments for the itch, if that's a problem. If it's just the itchiness of the rash that is the problem and not the rashes themselves, and your doctors have had a good look at them, then be strong and, grit your teeth and know that the clearing forever of the virus is why we go through this crap. It can be sooo miserable. Good luck.
Avatar m tn The thighs are doing well now but my lower legs and ankles have a lot of itchy bumps. Of course, my scalp only recently got itchy bumps, and it is pretty itchy. As I said, the fluocinonide ointment works very, very well and controls the itching. I have decided the Beneadryl was basically doing nothing because any itchy area that I missed with fluocinonide oint. still itched like crazy. The derm.
Avatar n tn i think i have a scalp fungus my scalp always smells even when i wash it any help or cure?
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 f tn Now my meds have sorted I am ok for now but I did have something general at the start which was helpful. Questran. This product is for itchy scalp conditions, scalp meaning the skin all over the body. Also , a general vitamin E6 cream to put back some of the essentials on to the skin helps. Try anything, its worth it as not every remedy suits every person.
Avatar f tn May be the shampoo or conditioner you are using if using a new brand. If not it may be itchy scalp or allergic reaction to something. I would try changing the brand first then see if that helps. If not the doctor can give you something to clear it up. I would try a medicated shampoo first.It is expensive but is relieving and it works.Good Luck hope this helped.
