What Is The Yellowish Wet Looking Scab On The Back Of My Mother S Head?
Ok, well I m 14... And my mom noticed a yellowish wet looking scab on the back of her head, and she told me it hurts her neck and it hurts her really bad. And I m worried... So could you please tell me what this could be? And should she see a doctor or something? Also, she had the bite or something on her arm and she picked at it, she put a bandaid on it and she thinks she s allergic to the band aids, because everytime she puts a new brand on or anything more bites/bumps come up on her arm. Is she allergic to them? Or something more serious?

hi there
1. your mother concern may be seborrhoeic dermatitis
2. ask her to wash her scalp with keraglo ad shampoo weekly twice with soft drinking water
3. try them for couple of weeks if improvement noted ask her to continue the prescription
other wise consult a dermatologist for physical examination
nothing serious don't worry
