What Could The Reason For 2 Year Old Having Bumps In Hair Which Is Itching And Oozing Pus?
My 2 year old has a few bumps in his hair that recently started to puss. He scratched them also bcuz it itched. Now puss and blood comes out every so often. I just wanna know what it could be. The bumps aren't red and it's only a few. My son has long hair, if that matters

I think it is important to make sure that his hair is clean by regular washing. If hair is very long and he is getting the boils you could trim his hair. You could try using Bactroban cream for the skin infection.
