Just in the past couple of weeks, I noticed two small spots of folliculitis appearing on my scalp. The first that appeared was near my front hairline and the second, which I noticed just yesterday is near my back hairline. Luckily, they seem to be just once-off appearances rather than a dreaded outbreak. How do I know this? Well I can't feel the general itchiness at the areas of the spots that normally precedes a flare-up.
The spot that appeared near my front hairline has since healed itself and the one at the back I'm still keeping a watchful eye on.
On a different note, it seems the area around my lips is undergoing a dryspell once again. The skin is peeling in the area just above the chin and its an annoyance more than anything else. This must be directly related to why the dermatitis on the back of my hands flared up again. That and also the skin on my neck and earlobes are drying out too. I can definitely point blame on the luxury of using warm water during these chilly winter months when washing the face or showering. On the bright side, at least my lips are fine which I'm very glad about.
