I've had this red boil or pimple thing on my hips for about a week now, and it's been super itchy. It's been really hot lately, and I'm sweating a lot, so I'm wondering if thats making it worse. Any idea what could be causing it?

I'm noticing some kind of white powder on my head, and I'm pretty sure it's not dandruff. I've tried a bunch of remedies, but nothing seems to help. My scalp feels really itchy, especially when I go from a cool place to a warmer one. What could this be, and how can I make it better?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection on your scalp, such as tinea capitis. I recommend using an antifungal shampoo containing ketoconazole. You can try using Nizoral shampoo twice a week for 4 weeks. Make sure to leave the shampoo on your scalp for 5 minutes before rinsing off. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like fluconazole, prescribed by a doctor, to help treat the infection from the inside. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage and duration of treatment.
