This condition usually occurs with those having curly hairs. There are a few things you may do to avoid getting skin bumps and rash:

Shave with the grain of the beard and do not stretch the skin. Use only one stroke over each area of the beard.

Use of an electric shaver may also help the condition because it does not cut as close as blades do. Use the electric razor on high setting to avoid close shaving and prepare beard with electric razor pre-shave. Do not stretch the skin ...more

Hi. I am 24 year old female. I am suffering from scalp folliculitis since past two years. I get white painful pustules on my head. Usually they are 5-7 in number but I have noticed once in 15 days I get a really bad break out where they increase to 20-25. They are all over my head. Frontal hair line. In between and even at the back of my head. They start with a reddish eruption and then convert into white pustules. I have sought different treatments. Initially I was on amoxicillin 500 mg twice a day. Then I was on linox 600 mg twice a day for 7 days along with topical clindamycin solution. This would clear up the pustules for 15 days but then they would return back worse than before. Skin prick test was also done and I avoided things which came positive on it like coconut, beans etc. I have tried homeopathy as well. I was given doses of hepar sulphur. Adel 73 and mezereum and a combination of others too but nothing really helped. Homeopathic medications would not dry it out. Have been given neem tablets too and neem oil which I took for 8 months along with turmeric tablets but that didn’t help too. I’m a student and my condition effects my studies a lot. Some days it gets difficult to even comb my hair hence I cannot go to college which effects my attendance. Kindly suggest me a way out of this terrible disease and I am losing hope.

Torticollis can go away with proper medication. Surgery, however, is required if the medicine and therapies do not prove to be fruitful. About 10 percent of children require surgery and rest all get recovered through medicines. The operation is typically scheduled once the child reaches preschool years.

No, it is not a permanent situation and it should be treated. Meanwhile, when the condition is left untreated for a long period of time this medical problem could become permanent.

इओसिनोफिलिया एक ऐसी स्थिति है जब आपके रक्त में इओसिनोफिल के सामान्य स्तर से अधिक पाया जाता है। इओसिनोफिल्स एक प्रकार की बीमारी से लड़ने वाली श्वेत रक्त कोशिका हैं। इसे कई बार सामान्य भाषा में स्नोफीलिया कहा जाता है। यह स्थिति अक्सर परजीवी संक्रमण, एलर्जी प्रतिक्रिया या कैंसर का संकेत देती है।

आपके रक्त में उच्च स्तर के इओसिनोफिल्स कई जगहों पर पाए जा सकते हैं खून में (रक्त इओसिनोफिलिया) या संक्रमण या सूजन (ऊतक इओसिनोफिलिया) के स्थान पर ऊतकों में भी हो सकते हैं।
