If you have small pimples on your head, you can treat them like this

Many people find that they grow small bumps on their heads in the summer, and they become red and itchy. They will feel pain when pressed gently. This is a problem for many people. In fact, the small bumps on the head are acne. Let us mainly explain how to deal with them below.

Acne on the head generally refers to folliculitis; of course, folliculitis on the head has a special name: seborrheic dermatitis; it is related to excessive oil in the skin; it is more common in summer or autumn; sometimes it can also affect the back of the neck, chest and back.

These red pimples on the head are related to the internal heat of the human body. People who like to drink alcohol are most likely to develop these inexplicable small bumps, and they are very stubborn. Therefore, drinking more water and eating less hot foods such as mutton, dog meat, and grapes can prevent this.

In addition, this type of acne on the head is also related to local immune dysfunction. The skin of such people is mostly prone to itching; they have a sensitive constitution; if they need treatment, they usually take Chinese medicine for conditioning; the author generally recommends taking Baixuan Xiata Re Tablets or glycyrrhizic acid; these two medicines are generally sold in pharmacies.

As for external medications, general ointments are not very effective due to the obstruction of hair. Compound Phellodendron chinense liquid, which can clear away heat and detoxify and promote wound contraction and recovery, is more suitable for this type of condition.

Shaving your head can help with treatment; some people say that wouldn’t it be more obvious if you shave your head? In fact, when your hair is shaved, the bacteria and other microorganisms on the surface will be greatly reduced, reducing the chance of infection and being more helpful for treatment.

The recovery time of acne on the head is relatively slow. According to the author's experience, it usually takes a month, and even longer for severe cases. Three to five days of medication cannot cure the disease. Therefore, many people stop taking the medicine after the symptoms are relieved after a few days, but the symptoms relapse soon after, and then they blame the doctor for the bad medicine. This situation is largely related to insufficient medication time, so the medication must be continued and the medication time must be long.
