A member asked:

I think i am experiencing a chemical burn or allergic reaction after using hair dye. my scalp has sores that are weeping. i do have seborrheic dermatitis. what can i do at home?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Exam needed: Reactions to hair dye do occur and will resolve after a period of time. Since you have more than redness or itching, I recommend that you be examined by your physician or a dermatologist to see if secondary infection is present and if so, appropriate treatment can be started. In the meantime apply warm soaks and, if possible, apply a combination of antibacterial and cortisone type cream until seen
