Poss folliculitis: This may be folliculitis (inflammation/infection of the hair follicles.). It can resolve by itself, and warm compresses/topical antibiotics (like Bacitracin) may be helpful. If severe, it may need to be seen by a physician.

Receiving Paclitaxel and Herceptin. After 5th cycle, developed 30 small pimples or water bumps on my scalp, which feels like sunburn, though I've not been in the sun, and itches. Is this a normal side effect? Can I use calamine lotion on them?
