Hi everyone,

My ds7 had like a crusty clump on his scalp about a week ago, i thought it was dried up gel or something and thought i would just pick it off , poor ds yellped but i came off look slightly sore under, we didnt really think anything of it.

Last night he sayed at my mums and she mentioned whilst washing his hair he had again a crusty sore patch on his head so i looked this time it was in a diffrent place about size of a 10p piece and of course my mum thought the same as me something stuck so went to scracth it off.

But again poor ds yelled and she stopped it's still there but where my mum slighty lefted it it looks weepy (not pus at all) just sore, he also has 2 other crusty patches 1 in the same place as i saw and another next to it but these are only small.

i took him to the pharmacy as i couldnt get an appointmet and they didnt really know, so im going to try get another appointmet tommorow at the doctors.

Does any one have any idea.

It sounds like impetigo or a scalp infection to be honest, he needs to see the GP. In the mean time, keep it clean, wash your hands thoroughly and use seperate towels.
