Spots On The Head Resembling Bug Bites. What Are These?
My daughter has all these spots on her head that look like bug bites. They will get red all around and are now releasing a clear yellow liquid. She also has these spots around her ears and her forehead that look like a small white bump encircled in redness that takes about 30-60 minutes to go away. She was neither around bugs and doesn t have lice , we ve also checked for bed bugs, nothing. Please help!

Hi,
The way you have expressed goes in favor Boils on scalp and forehead. It is a bacterial infection which needs antibiotics. Boil producing bacteria is present more in dirt. So keep your environment clean.
some times boils may be associated with immune deficiency. While you take treatment for boils take care of other points mentioned. Consult a Dermatologist.
