Scalp issues....uggh

Miss Kiya has something going on on her scalp. We have it narrowed down to three possibilities,

1)ringworm
2)psoriasis
3)dermatitis

We have no idea. It is VERY frustrating as there is no easy solution for this.

If we go with ringworm, we can treat with tea tree oil (which stinks by the way). The issue is it appears to be in more than one spot and Kiya's hair is so thick and wonderful that we aren't sure we would be getting it all. We could ask for oral medication but that is a treatment that last 6-8 weeks or more and is rough on the liver and kidneys. We are VERY hesitant to do this given especially her possible Hep C status.

Psoriasis and dermatitis we have really no idea what to do with. There is talk of shampoos etc. Not fun since we typically only use shampoo in Kiya's hair once per week....

We would hope it isn't ringworm. We are cautiously optimistic as Dave and I don't have ringworm and there is a decent chance we would have by now.

So what are going to do.....find a dermatologist and see if we can get some better answers. The plus side is it doesn't seem to be bothering Kiya much. Wish us luck....we are going to need it.
