Lupus Support Group
Lupus is an auto-immune disease in which the immune system cannot distinguish between threats (like viruses and bacteria), and healthy cells and tissue. As a result, the body produces antibodies that inflict cell damage, most commonly targeting joints, skin, kidneys and the nervous system. Join the group and find support for coping with lupus.
I have been getting small pimple like bumps in my hairline, eyebrows and some on my scalp. They are sore, look like pimples or blisters but do not come to a head. They hurt!! I put steroid ointment on the after cleaning with alcohol. The scab up but take so long to go away. This past flare up was very bad, nothing is working, my whole eyebrow is full of sores now that are scabbed over. Don't know what else to do. Can't afford to run to Dr with every flare up...any suggestions? Does anyone else get these?? The ones in my scalp itch, Dr said that is common I just wish there was a treatment... I'm still dealing with hairloss too, so can not use anything harsh that will dry out or make my hai loss worse....ugh
I get these occasionally. I thought it was a severe case of acne and was placed on acne and rosacea medication and just two weeks ago I was diagnosed with Lupus :( I feel your pain these small sores hurt so bad and they do take long periods of time to heal. Only thing I recommend is washing your face twice a day with warm water and soap to ease the pain a bit.
