A member asked:
There are roughly 5 redish brown circles on my scalp that aren't raised, don't itch, and don't hurt. no hereditary psoriasis. what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rash on scalp: On those patches have you lost hair? Several things can cause that--- including allergen in the shampoo or hair gel, tinea capitis ( a kind of fungal infection of scalp) and of course psoriasis. See a dermatologist.
