Yes, I’m planning on seeing a dermatologist, and this time I mean it. Honestly, I can probably find better guidance online than by visiting my own doctor, who just hands out diagnoses without even performing an exam... something that seems to be becoming all too common lately.
Thanks so much for the response and the help!!!!
Hi... I need some help.
A few weeks ago, my scalp issues flared up again. It’s mostly around my ears and forehead, though it's starting to spread toward the crown. It shows up as red patches that peel—looks like heavy dandruff at first, but then it just leaves these red spots behind.
My doctor prescribed Advil gel. It helps for a moment; I apply it and the redness fades, but by the next day, it's right back, regardless of how often I wash my hair.
I want to know how to get rid of this for good. It keeps coming back year after year.
Any advice would be appreciated. What should I do? Thanks.
