Hi Gidget,
I've been getting quite a few sores on my scalp over the past few months that will eventually heal, then a couple of new ones will form that very slowly heal. They've been moving across the crown of my scalp since early June/07. I thought it might have something to do with hair products, but I stopped using them and I'm still getting the sores. Of course it doesn't help that I've sometimes picked them like a monkey. I have tried rubbing alcohol and/or hydrogen peroxide to help dry them up. I have no idea what has caused my sores, since I'm not normally prone to scalp/skin problems. Except of course my bizarre skin peeling issue. I hope yours clear up soon.
