Folliculitis and Scalp Itching - My Itchy Ordeal With Doctors
Folliculitis on the Scalp For three years, I had a condition that was diagnosed as Scalp Folliculitis by a doctor.
When I first went to this doctor he thought it could be folliculitis -- even though it didn't look like the typical folliculitis case.
He sent me to a Dermatologist who never made a diagnosis but prescribed a topical lotion that didn't work.
A waste of money! I went to back to the Dermatologist who now prescribed antibiotics -- worked after taking them daily for a 3 months but I became concerned what taking these pills were doing to my immune system.
I went back to my doctor who agreed with me about stopping the antibiotics.
He also suggested I stop using the organic shampoos I had been using and start with a harsh shampoo such as Head and Shoulders or Selsun Blue.
Initially it worked but then it stopped working.
It seemed as though my scalp folliculitis built up some kind of immunity to the products I was using.
After going to different doctors for a while, I came to the conclusion I wasn't going to find the cure for the folliculitis scalp problem that I suffered from, from a doctor.
So I started experimenting with all kinds of medicines.
After three years with my scalp folliculitis condition, I successfully developed the solution that kept me from having to relentlessly claw at my scalp.
What is this solution? The solution I developed for my scalp folliculitis involves: 1.
Washing my hair with a combination of 2 specific/unique shampoos 2.
Using two specific lotions, yes, lotions, on my scalp (one must be prescribed, the other can be bought over the counter) 3.
Taking a specific B-LACTAM antibiotics.
To escape from the misery that often comes with chronic scalp folliculitis, it is imperative you utilize all three aforementioned suggestions in a COMBINED fashion.
