A member asked:
Could my scalp foliculitis be due to nuts allergy. i have this condition for years and have noticed it getting worse if i eat nuts?

I cannot link the two directly. If you itch in your scalp after eating nuts, knowingly or not, you could trigger a folliculitis there from the trauma by contaminated fingers.
