In my scalp, in a particular portion like 3cm scabs coming, I picking out and it became my habit. For the past 5 years I am suffering because of this. I have taken lot of treatments and consulted various dermatologists, I had removed the particular part by a plastic surgeon and biopsy done. As per the reports doctor said none. After 6 months I m getting the same problem. Again I consulted the same consultant, prescribed medicines not working. How to treat the scalp scabs? Is there any natural way for this? Please suggest me how to overcome this.

You should discuss your problem with the treating doctor. You should ask him the prognosis of the disease and whether recurrence can be avoided. If nothing much can be done then you should accept the same or at the most take a second opinion from the other specialist. When the treatment is worse than the disease it is better not to treat. What about the general health and any associated ailments like hypertension, diabetes and taking any medicines for some other ailment. This should also be brought to the notice of your treating doctor.
