Hi,
You got itchy rash on the scalp and other areas. The rash in Still disease is not itchy. So, the cause would be different. It may be allergic or irritation. So, consult the Dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis. I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like Cetirizine 10 mg daily till you feel better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel, Dermatologist
