I've been dealing with this on-and-off rash that just won't leave me alone. It looks like small itchy mosquito bites on my arms, and they often swell up and even get filled with pus sometimes. Any idea what's going on or how I can make it stop?

I'm really worried about my hair loss over the past few months. I've been losing a lot, like 200-250 strands a day, and it's freaking me out. My scalp is painful when I touch it and feels warm too. I've had issues with Seb derm in the past, but medication helped then. Now, I'm also dealing with a Vitamin D deficiency and started supplements last month. Im using a mild shampoo and washing my hair every other day, but nothing seems to help. I know I need to look into a full treatment plan, but I'm not sure where to start. Can you guide me?

I've been diagnosed with scalp psoriasis, and I'm seeing some dry red patches. My doctor prescribed some ointments and vitamin tablets, but I've kind of forgotten what exactly I'm supposed to do. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Momate S cream on my scalp because it's really dry and patchy. Could you offer some advice on this?
