A member asked:
My 8 year old son has a bad scalp rash after getting a hair cut. what medication can be recommended to treat this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to speculate: An exam to determine the type of rash would determine whether or not any or what would be needed. This could be an allergic reaction to some agent applied to the scalp, ringworm or something different. Treatments for one issue could aggravate another.Without a better description of the rash or an exam little can be offered.
