[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Recently about three weeks ago i was admitted for icp bolt.
I noticed yestetday tht obviousley my scalp is still quite tender but all the scar seems to have grown a hard painfull round lump and its causing me pain... Cant have the hairbrush anywere near it.
Is this normal ???????
im just worried and could do with some advice or similar experiences please....
Angelisse I would have your doctor take a look at it, as I personally wouldn't like to speculate, especially with it being so painful. In the meantime I'd wash your hair with Johnsons baby shampoo so that it doesn't irritate it.
