My original though was poison ivy that wAs in November I had it on my arms and scalp. The arms went away now it s July and my head has never stopped bothering me. Now I think it s turned to shingles and my neck and head are bad but my scalp has fluid leaking sticky fluid. I m really just waning to cry it s been o long tortured time!! Could shingles cause leaky fluid!!
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, this may not be viral infection but this could be some eczema and in my opinion this can be best tried with "Mometasone cream" no need to worry about this, try to keep the area clean take care for hygiene, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
