scalp problem

[liam]

i have this itch on my head and scatching just makes it more itchy especially when there is a small patch of dry skin and blood. I wash my hair regularly and it doesnt help, can anybody give some advice or cure?

It may be caused by eczema or psoriasis. If so you can treat it using a variety of shampoos...the most effective are available from your doctor, but products such as Tgel are sometimes powerful enough to work and are available over the counter.

Also do not scratch...it will only make it worse.

If shampoo fails to treat your condition, try adjusting your diet - depletion of milk and dairy produce, sugar, and any spicy food should provide an improvement after a few weeks.
