Multiple pimples on scalp
I'm having multiple heat boils on scalp and this even multiples when I apply any hair oil. So I stopped using any hair oil. Each of these boils develops with pus and dries itself over few days. Kindly suggest me a permanent solution for this

STOP HAIR OIL.
Scalp follicultis should resolve to antibiotics. Sometimes fungal follculitis is the cause and anti-fungals helps. A good way is to get a pus culture and sensitivity done to identify the exact causative organism and treat accordingly. A decolonisation regimen exist and your doctor for the details to prevent recurrences.
