Itchy Bumps On Head And Face, Pus Filled, Itchiness. On Anti Itch Skin Cream. Help?
Hi doctor.
I get itchy bumps on my head, forehead and face. Sometimes they produce a crystaled puss. They're very itchy, but I've learned not to scratch them. When I treat them with any kind of topical anti-itchy skin products, they get worse. They would go away after two days or so and would then appear on other parts of my face.
Please help
Thanks

Hi,
Welcome to the forum,
According to your clinical symptoms the bumps can be allergic reaction to irritant food or medications, if they become painful can be a sebaceous cyst, if there are pimples under the skin it can be a cystic acne. I would suggest you to consult a skin specialist to diagnose the skin problem and treatment plan.
Take care!
