I have RA (for past 8+ years). I am currently taking Humira, arava, prednisone and naproxyn. I am experiencing extremely itchy scalp that turns into raised welts. There one day, gone the next! I would not describe it as a rash. I have been using a coal tar based shampoo which helps somewhat. I m wondering if this is related to the RA or a reaction to one of the medications?
use antifungal shampoo containing flucanasol..tab flucanazol 150 mg once a WK for 3 wks with tab azithromycine 500 once a day for three days..
