Question

Answer 1

I have the same thing I use cortisone 10 for itch and I also use hydro peroxide to clean it with and just be really careful not to cut it with your nails when you itch it that's where the moisture which is actually puss comes from. and some times if it gets really bad use neosporine.

Answer 2

kind of sounds like psoriasis, my older sister has it and that is what your symptoms sound like. You HAVE to stop scratching it. If it is psoriasis it can start small and spread.

Answer 3

i used equate ointment u can buy anywhere. it's for itchiness and it works for me. tea tree oil is good too.

Answer 4

I have had this since I was a baby.  We call it cradle cap crud and use baby oil to soften it up.

Answer 5

You probably have some type of fungus. See your doctor.
