Question: Foot pain with swelling on top of foot. kcornall - Mon Jan 24, 2005 11:15 pm. I have been having pain on 3 occasions on my right foot. I have not found a reason for this yet but it subsides after 4-5 days of limping around on it. The pain is localized on the top of the foot, near the center of the foot, between the large toe and the one next to it. Share |. Share |.
Dermatitis causes flaking, scales and sores on the scalp and is considered a result of excessive hair oil production known as sebum. Sebum is excreted by the sebaceous glands associated with all follicle pores. Sebum, in normal quantities, helps lubricate and nourish your hair. Excessive sebum can accumulate trapping dirt and lead to bacteria when acting upon yeast. Bacteria and oil causes stickiness and can produce sores, bumps and pimples.
Kerion (inflammatory Tinea capitis) Another cause of sores or lesions on the scalp is inflammatory Tinea capitis. It is caused by Tinea capitis which is medical term for yeast of the skin on the scalp. Unlike folliculitis, kerion is influenced by fungal infection. It is identified by pustules with tender areas.
