What are little red bumps that are on the scalp
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Folliculitis. : Could be an inflammation of the hair follicles upon the scalp. Are your hairs emanating from the bumps? Although this is a low-level infection, just letting warm-to-hot water run upon your scalp daily may be enough to help this along.
