Is it normal for pimples to appear on the scalp in a straight line?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the lesions are on one side & are somewhat uncomfortable and blistering ensues,I would suspect a shingles eruption. Since there's treatment for shingles, I recommend having your physician or dermatologist examine & advise you.
