Itchy Skin, Sore, Liquid Oozing Out. Off Depo For 4 Months, No Periods. Suggestions?

Hi, a few days ago my skin got really sensitive/itchy over the last 2 days any pimple or cut has turned into a weepy sore, I also have them on my scalp that started just as dry skin last night I scratched and all of a sudden their was a clear liquid gushing out, it dried quickly at a matte consintancy ive ended up with 2 & their on egg like bumps on the top of my head. Im a 31yo female I went off the depo injection 4 half months ago still no period, would that have anything to do with it

Dermatologist 's  Response
hi i think it is scalp folliculitis or seborrhic dermatitis.it may be due to depot injections .it is to be treated with scalpe shampoo weekly twice and use atarax 25 mg at night ,broad spectrum antibiotic twice daily and application of mupirocin ointment on the lesion can cure it.if it is seborrhic dermatitis use flucanazole 150 mg weekly once for 4 weeks
