It starts out as just one bump and then over time it is all of my lower scalp then moves to my lower back and lower legs and then lower arms and lasts for months then goes away for 2 years only to reappear in 2 years in August??

Hi Dear,
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy rashes on the scalp, lower back and legs which occurs when there are hormonal changes, environmental factors, stress and clogged pores of sebaceous gland filled with sebum ,dead skin and bacteria get infected. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply Adapelene gel once at night. Apply antibacterial ointment topically such as betnovate. Avoid oily and fried food and make use of product containing benzoyl peroxide. Take Multivitamin supplements. Drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics course.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
