I am a 21 year old male, and I have a small red patch on my scalp (2�1 cm) with a small but hard bumo on it. It only hurts when I press it and itches when I scratch it. Its been there for several months. Went to a dermatologist and they gave me dermovate cream for a month but it hasn't had any effect so far.
