Feeling itchy on scalp/albendazole

2018-03-05 02:07:58
Hello, I took albendaole yesterday and now I can't help but feel itchiness on my head. I even feel like I've heard a popping sound when I pressed a hand against my scalp. Can someone please help me with what I can do? I'm not sure what's going on and I am very concerned. I believe I have pinworms but am waiting to receive test results.

Without examination of the skin condition and knowing the extent of involvement.. along with this more information on ongoing medication or history of previous/current skin/systemic illness it is not possible to comment on the treatment that would suit you best. Please get the problem checked thoroughly by visiting a qualified dermatologist or you can send images online through private online consult for a better assessment of the problem. Hope this is helpful.
