image My daughter has about 6 scabs on her scalp, 3 Can be seen here and the rest are on different parts of scalp.

she has had these a couple of days, does anyone know what they are?

She was up all night being sick and has a high temp, don't know if this is related to the scalp problem?

thanks in advance

    Sorry this should say scabs not scans and I can't figure out how to change it

    Hi did you find out what this was as my 7 year old also has these exact scabs on his head

    Looks like your daughter has a sensitive scalp. Use a mild shampoo only like Cetaphil.

    Did you ever find out the cause of these scabs? My 5 year old has one that is recurring on top of her head. It starts out as a bump then really itchy and turns into a scab.
