Pit bulls are also more likely to kill an adult than a child. In the 3-year period, pit bulls killed more adults (ages 21 and over), 54%, than they did children (ages 11 and younger), 46%. In the 21-54 age group, pit bulls were responsible for 82% (14) of the deaths. The data indicates that pit bulls do not only kill children and senior citizens; they kill men and women in their prime years as well.
Painful sores, blisters, or bumps that develop on the scalp may be caused by: 1  Infection of the hair shafts (folliculitis) or the skin (such as impetigo). 2  An allergic skin reaction (contact dermatitis). 3  Viral infections, such as chickenpox and shingles.  A skin condition, such as acne.
Causes of Scalp Pimples. Scalp acne is less common than acne on the face or back, but it develops in the same way. Skin naturally produces a protective layer of oil known as sebum. Sebum makes its way to the skin's surface through pores, and excess oil, dead skin cells or other substances can clog them. Bacteria multiply in the trapped sebum, forming a pre-pimple, or a microcomedone.
