Hi, itching on the scalp can be due to dandruff, lice, fungal infection or other reasons. Your scalp needs to be examined to know the cause of boils and itching. Avoid oiling your scalp. Keep your scalp clean and dry. Use an antidandruff shampoo like 8x twice a week. Pls see a local dermatologist if the itching and boils persist.

There are multiple causes for redness n itching on glans penis. Without photographs n a proper history it's not possible to tell what exactly the problem is. Candid b is a combination of steroid n antifungal, so ideally shouldn't be used even if you r suspecting a fungal infection, as steroid will worsen the infection. Consultant a dermatologist (online or clinic) n get a proper evaluation done.
