Scalp AcneScalp acne, or Scalp Folliculitis, is a skin disorder that causes inflamed hair follicles. These pustules are small, and sometimes itchy. Because of the itching sensation, it is common to scratch at the acne, causing the pustule to break open and spread the acne furthermore. It is not uncommon for scalp acne to be sore or to sting.What is the cause of scalp acne? The leading causes of scalp acne, and other acne, are bacteria and oil. Yeasts and mites can also be scalp acne causes. It is also thought that great stress can lead to breakouts of acne on the forehead and scalp. In most cases, scalp acne is the direct result of not washing your hair for a long period of time. It has also been found that many hair products have an overabundance of oil – which is a cause of scalp acne. How can I prevent scalp acne? Usually, scalp acne can be cleared up by using a mild shampoo. It is often suggested to use an over the counter anti-bacterial shampoo or antidandruff shampoo.
