What Could A Peeled Scab With Reddish Tinge On Scalp Indicate?

about 6 weeks ago I had a small scab on my scalp. I picked it off. It keepsscabing over but has never healed. didn't pick it again. but tonight when i combed my hair the "scab' came off. it was kinda clear and scalp skin looking with a tiny amount of white granular looking something beneath the skin. There is a hole in my scalp with a fiery red rim now. I used hydrogen peroxide and neosporin. I have no insurance.
I am 54, white, female, no allergies, healthy.
