Woke up with itchy, crusty scabs/spots/bumps on my scalp...

There was nothing wrong with me when I went to bed last night. When I woke up this morning my head was itchy and after itching it I felt around my head and there are at least 8 spots of crusty itchy bumps that are sore to press on.
I also have one on my eyebrow and spots around my mouth that are itchy now too and crusty stuff in one of my ears... the crust is yellow.
I have obviously (stupidly) googled it and convinced myself I have skin cancer. It is my birthday tomorrow... I've put a doctors appointment request in but probably won't hear back until Wednesday or Thursday...

Did you use any different shampoo or other products recently?

You could try a pharmacist in the meantime?
