My son had brain surgery for seizures in 2008, he has three titanium plates and numerous titianium screws, since his surgery he has experienced scalp sores similar to pimples , and the doctors don t know what it is. We wonder if he has an allergic reaction to titanium, or possibly a form of fungus, or Bacteria. Do you have any ideas?
