Unbearable itchy scalp won’t go away
For the past 2.5 months my scalp has been getting bumps that itch terribly. Sometimes the scalp skin flakes off in dry little crumbs too. My scalp itches non-stop around the bumps, and itching it just leads to bleeding and scabs. Around the time it started was I switched from a keto diet to a regular balanced diet and the weather got hot and humid. I’ve tried dandruff shampoo , hemp oil, acv rinse, tea tree oil, organic shampoos , washing my hair more often /less often . What is this?
