For the last 12 years I have been experiencing boils, itchy, bleeding, hair loss where there is no follicle on my scalp. I am 30yrs from Caribbean descend. I have done every thing that the doctor requires and yet no solution. What can I do to stop this as it has now started to spread allover my scalp?

What is your location? We can list for you the best Doctors for treating you but need to know your location (Country, State, City etc ).

Go to a Dermatologist as soon as you can. Try a tar based shampoo every other day and also use Original Listerine. Saturate your scalp with this product then wait 10 minutes and rinse with warm water. Try this 2 or 3 times per week. Change pillow cover every day. Do not scratch your scalp. To control itching take a antihistamine tablet at bed time. Avoid wearing a hat and keep your finger nails as clean as you can. Use a finger nail brush. Do you have house pets? Do you work with animals or soils?

I have tried those steps before and yet I have no improvement. No I do not have any pets or work with them. Is there any thing else that I can try?

Thanks

May be fungal. You should see a Dermatologist ASAP. In london you may wish to talk with the Lagrange Scalp Clinic at 020 74678 341 or 020 83412 945. Modest charge for interview. If this is a fungus the symptoms could be similar to those of bacterial infections and when one uses antiseptics for extended periods fungus will have a good environment to populate. Good luck
