Hello,
Thank you for your query.
• Based on the information provided, it is difficult to suggest the most appropriate treatment without a proper assessment, as several skin conditions can appear similar.
• Kindly share clear photographs of the affected area in good lighting along with details such as duration of the problem, symptoms, and any treatments used previously.
• I would advise against starting any OTC creams or self-medication, as some products may worsen the condition or delay proper treatment.
• An accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effective and long-lasting results.
You may book a consultation for a detailed evaluation and a personalized treatment plan. I would be happy to guide you further.

Pus-filled bumps with redness on the scalp are likely folliculitis or furunculosis â bacterial infection of hair follicles. This is common when moving to a new place due to sweat, change in water quality, or humidity. It's not dangerous but needs prompt treatment to prevent spreading.
Next Steps
Use an antibacterial/antifungal shampoo (like Ketoconazole or Betadine scrub). Do not scratch or pop the bumps. If worsening or spreading, see a dermatologist â a short antibiotic course (e.g., Cloxacillin) may be needed. Consult me on Practo for further guidance.
