Ive been dealing with a pretty bad dandruff issue, but its not just in my hairit's really stuck on my skin. Every time I shampoo, it seems to disappear, but once my hair dries, it comes back and I have to scratch it off. Sometimes it even leaves behind a liquid, and on occasion, theres a little bleeding. Im noticing this not just on my scalp, but also on my chest, eyebrows, and beard. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What can I do to treat this?

View allI've noticed my forehead is swollen just above my right eye. It's not itchy or painful and measures about 1 inch wide by 1.5 inches in height. A couple of nights ago, my head was really itchy, and I had big, itchy bumps all over my shoulders. I'm not sure if that's connected, but what might be causing the swelling on my forehead?
he sudden onset of a painless, non-itchy swelling on your forehead, coinciding with a previous episode of itchy bumps on your shoulders, could be related to an allergic reaction, insect bites, or angioedema, but other possibilities include a forehead cyst, eyelid stye, or a side effect of a medication; to determine the cause and appropriate treatment, it's recommended to consult a dermatologist or primary care physician for a thorough evaluation.

I've recently noticed some brown spots appearing in my underarms. At first, there were about 12, and they weren't causing any issues like itching or irritation. But now there are 34, and it's got me really concerned. My dad experienced something similar, and it ended up spreading throughout the entire underarm area.
