I was given a steroid to apply to my scalp at night and it has really helped. Ketoconazole Shampoo and Clobetasol steroid together has mine under control most of the time.

I’ve found that dye free scent free laundry detergent is the way to go. Also don’t use the pre measured pods you usually don’t need the full amount of detergent that’s in the pod. I have found that I can use half the recommended amount of detergent and still get my clothes clean I make my load 2/3 size and set the load size on ex-large on the machine. I double rinse everything. I use towels once and change pillowcases daily-seem extreme? Well maybe but it works out well for me I believe from my own experience over the many years I’ve had this issue on my scalp that for me it does spread when it oozes onto adjoining skin and keeping your linens clean will make a difference. There is also a product on the market called Lysol laundry sanitizer free and clear. It has zero bleach and it kills bacteria and viruses 🦠 I’ve been using it also and it has allowed me to discontinue the use of bleach and has given me an alternative solution to bleach. I don’t know if it’s going to make a difference in the long run but I think it’s worth trying. It might be a bit more expensive but in the short term but if it helps to control the crud on the skin I think 🤔 maybe it’s worth a shot 🐭🤷

It is what it is and how I react to it.it has not caused me to take another drink of ETOH. it is a Bitch though and hair cut to 1/16". wash head daily using multiple shampoos.Nizorall, T+PLUS, DHS, DERMAREST,, ZINC, 2% ketoconazole cream after washing and Triamcinolone cream 0.1%.now nothing seems to be helpingalso treating another condition seborrheic Keratosis in groin area so far 5 appointments freezing with liquid nitrogen so again it is what it is and as long as I can accept that it is the way it is supposed to be, I can have moments of serenity.

and i forgot to mention that Dermazen has a roller (Cooling Rescue Roller) for immediate itching/burning relief that is amazing! you can just apply with the roller anytime and very quickly all sensation disappears, at least for me. again, good luck to all.
