I've been struggling with pimples and acne ever since I had chicken pox three years ago. I never had any skin issues before that, so I'm wondering if my chicken pox wasn't treated properly back then and if that's why I'm still breaking out. I'm really good with my diet and I work out regularly, but nothing seems to stop these breakouts. Could the chicken pox be the cause, and what can I do about it?

That might not be chicken po,that could be pemphigous disease,visit Dermatologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm really worried about my hair because whenever I oil my scalp, I get this really sharp pain, almost like someone is pulling my hair. This pain doesnt go away until I wash it off. Is this normal, or should I be concerned about something more serious going on?

Normal.
