Any rash on the skin is a signal from the body that something has gone wrong somewhere. This kind of inflammation is always painful, especially if acne appears on the head. In men, due to short haircuts, rashes immediately catch the eye. But women, having discovered acne on their heads, should not take it lightly. After reading the article with photos, you will learn what types of skin rashes there are, why they appear, and how you can cure them.
Why do acne appear on the head?
Bacteria that manage to overcome the hydrolipid film, which is one of the layers of the skin and performs a protective function, penetrate into deeper layers and cause inflammation, which manifests itself as acne. The painful discomfort that accompanies even the smallest pimple intensifies when combing your hair. Before you start fighting inflammation on the skin, you need to understand the reasons for their occurrence. They can be very diverse, both internal and external. For convenience, the main causes of acne on the head are divided into several categories.
In adults
- Unstable hormonal levels provoke skin rashes in women, this happens especially often when the menstrual cycle is disrupted.
- A more global cause of female rashes in the form of acne on the head can be polycystic ovary syndrome: when the organ works in an enhanced mode, the oiliness of the skin increases.
- In men, acne on the scalp appears when testosterone levels, a sex hormone, change.
- Frequently occurring stressful situations lead to problems with the adrenal glands, then a failure in the body’s well-functioning system results in acne rashes on the skin in the hair area.
- Taking some medications can cause a reaction in the body in the form of a skin rash.
- With colds and hypothermia, purulent pimples and boils may appear throughout the body, including on the head.
- The simple reason for the appearance of acne on the scalp may be trivial, hidden in the wrong choice of shampoo, the composition of which has an individual intolerance.
- Low-quality, highly chlorinated water dries out the skin, the sebaceous glands begin to work hard, and pustular rashes appear in the scalp.
- Using synthetic pillows for night rest. The scalp does not breathe, sweats, inflammation and acne form.
- Very frequent or, conversely, rare washing of the hair.
In children
Young children also suffer from the rash, although most are kept in ideal, clean conditions. In newborn babies, the cause of acne can be the incorrect diet of a nursing mother. Older children, preschool or primary school age, suffer from allergies to certain foods or even toys if they are made from low-quality materials. Parents need to pay very close attention to any changes in the surface of the child’s skin, especially when it comes to rashes in infants.
During adolescence
In girls and boys who have reached adolescence, the appearance of acne is the main problem that is visible to the naked eye. Hormonal surges cause rashes on the face, temples, and back of the head, accompanied by itching and increased sensitivity. Increased work of the sebaceous glands clogs the space near the hair follicles, causing inflammation. As a result, red or purulent pimples appear.
The main types of acne and the reasons for their manifestation
Any person, regardless of age, encounters trouble in the form of rashes. Pimples on the head, different in appearance, have their own distinctive features, which are worth dwelling on in a little more detail. At the first sign that any acne has appeared on your head, you need to pay attention to it and prevent the rash from spreading or worsening.
White pimples
Small white bumps on the skin that resemble small grains are located under the top layer of the skin. Closed comedones, or popularly called “comedos,” occur when the sebaceous glands are blocked by keratinized skin particles secreted by fat and sweat. Under the created plug, bacteria begin to actively multiply, creating a white nodule. This phenomenon of rash often occurs in adolescents, but even in adulthood, it is possible to encounter lumps on the skin that can periodically itch.
Red pimples
When small red spots appear on the skin, it is rarely a cause for concern. Inflammation develops in waves, sometimes intensifying, sometimes subsiding. During an exacerbation, a white purulent tubercle with a thickening under the skin appears in the center of the red pimple papule. Improper metabolism of the body and diseases of the gastrointestinal tract are the main reasons for the appearance of red pimples.
Blackheads
An open comedon has a black head, its structure and reason for its appearance is very similar to a white pimple, but is located in the upper part of the pore. Clogged with a layer of released fat, epithelial remnants, the pore or hair follicle is filled with a white-yellow substance, which, when oxidized under the influence of oxygen, darkens and becomes a black dot. As long as the area with blackheads does not become infected, they do not cause any trouble other than their unsightly appearance.
Purulent rashes
Rashes containing pus always not only look unpleasant, but are also very painful. Deep pimples may have a dense cystic base, then the color has a bluish tint. Red pustules contain a purulent ball inside. The cause of purulent rashes is the use of steroids, hormonal imbalance, or an infection that has entered the pores of the skin. Only a qualified physician after an examination can determine the source of the problem.
Subcutaneous painful nodules
The connective tissue (dermis), located between the hypodermis and epidermis, contains sweat and sebaceous glands, which, when clogged, form dense nodules that are painful to the touch. When bacteria enter the connective tissue, inflammation increases. The large size of pimples on the head indicates that the subcutaneous follicle has already burst and some amount has entered the dermis layer. If your scalp hurts on the top of your head, check to see if a new pimple has started to form there.
Which doctor should I contact?
When rashes on the scalp appear systematically and cause pain and discomfort, you should visit a professional dermatologist. After conducting the necessary laboratory tests, establishing the cause of the rash, inflammation on the head, the dermatologist prescribes treatment himself or advises seeking advice from an allergist, endocrinologist, therapist, or neurologist. Getting rid of the main cause of acne will speed up the results of properly prescribed treatment.
How to get rid of acne on the scalp
How to cure acne that periodically or constantly appears on the part of the head covered with hair can only be determined by a doctor who has a complete picture of the disease and knows the cause of the rash. Self-treatment can lead to worsening of the condition. Combining medication and physiotherapeutic methods gives positive results in the fight against inflammation. Longer treatment gives lasting results after recovery, but subject to the correct healthy diet and proper care for problem skin.
Drug treatment
Treatment with medications prescribed by a doctor against acne should be divided into several groups:
- Antiseptics. The most gentle effect on inflamed skin is antiseptic agents. The disinfecting effect of ointments, suspensions, and gels disinfects the top layer of skin, preventing the appearance of new rashes, thanks to zinc, which is part of some preparations. You need to apply directly to the pimples themselves and a small radius of the skin around them. The list of common drugs includes: “Ichthyol ointment”, “Tsindol”, “Metrogil”, “Kvotlan”, “Skinoren”, “Effezel”, “Aknebay”, calendula tincture.
- Adsorbents. The task of these drugs is to absorb all the toxins from the skin released by acne, start the body's metabolism in an optimal mode, and regulate the functioning of the sebaceous glands. Doctors prescribe Polysorb, brewer's yeast, Laktofiltrum.
- Antibiotics. In more complex cases of skin inflammation, the doctor prescribes medications from the antibiotic group in the form of ointments for external targeted use, such as Levomekol for acne and oral tablets to enhance the radical effect. They also help: ointment “Tetracycline”, “Metacycline”, “Doxycycline”, “Zinerit”, “Baziron AS”, “Erythromycin”, “Clindamycin”, “Monocycline”.
Physiotherapeutic methods
To ensure that the focus of skin inflammation occurs in a comprehensive manner, physiotherapeutic procedures against rashes are prescribed. These include:
- Cryotherapy. Local use of low temperature with liquid nitrogen applied to areas of greater acne accumulation on the skin. Cold treatment helps stimulate blood vessels, improves blood circulation, and activates the immune system.
- Laser therapy. The mechanisms that provoke the occurrence of acne are blocked. When a laser beam hits a pimple, the cell is partially destroyed, the ducts of the sebaceous glands are released, and bacteria and fungi that cause inflammation are killed.
- Darsonvalization. With the help of the Darsonval apparatus, the work of the sebaceous glands is regulated, pores are narrowed, blood circulation is improved, skin cells are restored, and inflammation is relieved.
- Ultrasound vibration therapy. Improves metabolic processes at the skin cell level, blocks the proliferation of bacteria.
- Ultraviolet. Treatment of the scalp with ultraviolet rays dries inflamed areas of the skin and kills bacteria.
Folk remedies
Treatment of inflammation of the scalp using folk methods at home can achieve good positive results, but on condition that this is part of a comprehensive treatment. Any of the proposed folk remedies against inflammation of the scalp should be used only after consultation with a doctor. We present more popular and effective non-traditional methods of fighting acne at home:
- Apple vinegar. After washing your hair, mix apple cider vinegar and water in equal proportions and wet your scalp.
- Honey with cinnamon. Mix two tablespoons of honey with ground cinnamon 2:1. Apply the resulting mass to the hair and scalp, wrap in a warm towel for 20-30 minutes. Rinse with warm water.
- Tea tree oil. Being a good antiseptic, the oil will help get rid of acne under the hair if you add a little of it to your shampoo.
- Sea salt for acne. A warm, strong saline solution is applied with a swab to the inflamed areas of the skin.
- Pumpkin. Grate the vegetable until mushy. Apply to the head as a mask for 15-20 minutes. Accelerates the process of acne maturation and dries out inflammation.
- Hop. The hop cones are washed and boiled for 3-5 minutes. The broth is infused for about an hour, filtered, and moistened with pimples.
- Celandine. Pour three or four tablespoons of dry celandine into 0.5 liters of boiling water. After 2 hours, strain. Make lotions using a cotton swab. Freshly picked fresh celandine will cauterize the resulting pustular pimple with its juice.
- Plantain. Wash and mash plantain leaves. Distribute the pulp, along with the resulting juice, which has an antiseptic effect, over the surface of the head for 20-25 minutes. Rinse off with warm water.

Why do acne appear on the head?
What do pimples on the head mean?
The phenomenon of an inflammatory process in the scalp and hair is not a rare case. Few people turn to a qualified specialist for help, considering small formations to be nonsense. The slightest minor disruption of body functions can lead to complications. In its advanced form, the disease is difficult and problematic to treat. An initial visit to a doctor can prevent a long, painful recovery process, saving time and health.
Acne that appears on the head has many causes and provokes an inflammatory process:
- incorrectly selected hair care product;
- high sebum production;
- stress;
- wrong lifestyle;
- hormonal disbalance;
- long stay in the cold;
- synthetic clothing;
- bacterial infection.
There are two types of hair: oily, dry (seborrhea). Determined by the production of sebum. A normal amount of the produced component guarantees healthy, shiny hair. A low level portends dry, brittle hair that constantly falls out. Large production of sebum gives the hair an unhealthy shine and a feeling of wetness. Are fatty. In an unhealthy environment, small inflammatory formations appear in the hair of men and women. Depends on hair type and care. Fifty percent are formed as a result of poor nutrition, junk food, and lack of vitamins. Vitamin deficiency and poor nutrition affect the condition of the gastrointestinal tract and skin. Toxic substances contained in food remaining in the body are manifested by rashes. Rarely, the inflammation hurts and increases in size.
Smoking, drinking alcohol, and promiscuous sex life have an effect. These factors provoke the disease. Destructive substances significantly weaken the immune system and reproductive functions. People who have bad habits find it more difficult to have a child and are more likely to experience acute respiratory diseases. Toxic substances contained in a certain substance negatively affect the stomach, liver, and kidneys. Violation of the listed organs involves formations on the skin. A common reason why acne appears on the head.
In an adult, inflammatory acne appears during hypothermia. The desire to walk in winter and autumn without a hat plays a cruel joke. Pimples occurring in the hair are a small proportion. Sinusitis may develop and develop into meningitis. Inflammatory manifestations are a reaction to climate change, lack of necessary heat, lack of necessary vitamins.
Infections affect health in different ways. The infection spreads in convenient ways. The result is a rash. A person is a carrier of an immense amount of bacteria. Depends on lifestyle, the state of the immune system. Organisms can exceed the norm, causing infectious diseases of the bacterial type. A decrease in a certain type of bacteria causes a blow to the condition of the body and its individual components. Neglecting treatment of an infectious disease can lead to serious complications.
Occurrence in children
Pimples may appear on the baby's head after feeding. You should review your diet and feed your baby formulas without cow's milk for a while. An allergic reaction, common in infancy, may occur.
Pimples that appear on a child’s head indicate dysbacteriosis. Additional symptoms of the disease are loose stools and frequency of bowel movements. Abdominal pain occurs. Stomach dysfunction - skin rashes.
Symptoms
Three days of combing will form a convex appearance. This is how pimples on the face and head are characterized. After a few days, the bulge fills with pus and pain occurs. People try to quickly destroy small inflammatory processes that appear, not knowing the consequences of self-removal. By touching with dirty hands, you risk getting blood poisoning and spreading a rash. You should wait four - the bulge will disappear on its own. Having discovered leaked pus, disinfect the affected area, preventing infection and further infection. You can do this using hydrogen peroxide or an alcohol solution.
Treatment
Antibiotics for acne will help eliminate the problem. Prescribed for advanced disease or severe infection. It is prohibited for use by small children and pregnant women. Antibiotics have a negative effect on a fragile, unstable organism, bringing additional illness instead of relief.
You can use ichthyol ointment. Suitable for boils, pustular acne, inflammatory processes. The drug draws out excess, naturally freeing the wound. Does not leave wounds, scars or stains. The main thing is that you should not attempt to eliminate formations on your own. After waiting seven days, the problem can be removed using ichthyol ointment. It smells unpleasant, but the product works effectively. After applying the drug, you should cover it with a cotton swab and an adhesive plaster on top. The lotion needs to be changed every three hours. The ointment has a positive effect, giving visible results. The complexity of the disease determines the course of treatment. Fixing the problem is painless.
Camphor alcohol is used to treat inflammation. The product is gentle to use and does not leave burns. You can cauterize the affected areas.
Conclusion
It is worth applying preventive measures. Do not rush into drug treatment recklessly. Drug intervention may not be necessary. You should be attentive to your health, without neglecting the symptoms of the disease or the occurrence of inflammatory formations.
Most leathers diseases can be caused by parasites, first get rid of them using Anti-parasite Drops. And for those who want to get rid of warts and papillomas, I recommend Anti Toxin Nano. Be healthy and happy.
