Re: scalp sores

[Guest guest]

Scalp and skin sores are not unusual following mold exposure. I recommend a

biopsy of the lesion(s) be done and tested for mold DNA and mycotoxins as well

as bacteria cultures. Once a diagnosis is done, then treatment can be

recommended. Jack D. Thrasher, Ph.D.

I get them too, more on the top of my head when a sinus infection goes

to my brain and more in the sides and back part of my head when it

comes from a lung or kidney infection that goes across my sholders and

up the back of my neck into my head. they put out heat and I think you

can find some info. by looking under hot spots,brain infection,ect.

mine doesn't cause pus to come out of my head, but it often leaves the

roots of my hair felling like their coated with wax and my head gets

very tender. it's made me wonder if when sometimes when kids wont even

let you brush their hair because they say it hurts, if theres a reason

why.

I dont know if this pertains to what comes out of the scalp but pus

seem to be tied alot to mold while clear substances is tied in more

with toxins.? just my thoughts because of my own experiences and from

what i've gathered from reading on polups,mucoceles and other

abcesses throughout the body weather its in fluids or tissue.

Hello!

I have been getting sores since my exposure. I am now currently on

medications for fungal infections in my blood/body. They really came

out when i did a detox diet a friend who does accupuncture and

practices homeopathics. My doctor treating me for fungus is an ENT and

has prescribed an ointment for Impetigo, the generic name is Mupirocin

2% ointment which helps. It is embarrassing because the sores are

everywhere and I think people think it is like that of a drug addict,

maybe it's just me, I have never had problem with skin, not even in my

teens. I am told it is a way for the toxins to escape, as they get in

first thru nose, then ears, eyes, skin! Good luck

Yes, I have been experiencing some head sores too. I recently had to move

back into my moldy home. It was that or be homeless, as the insurance

company stopped paying for my hotel stay. I had some workmen paint the

whole inside of my home with Kilz2 paint, wash down all the walls and

shampood the carpets with Young Living's Theives Oil Household Cleaner,

replaced the capet in my bedroom with new, very low pile carpeting and I

have been running air cleaners throughout my home. I got a sinus infection

and sores on my head when I turned off the air cleaner in the bedroom to

change the filter. I just realized that correlation between turning off the

air cleaner and the symptoms coming back. My son came to live with me and

he's been having all the same symptoms that I've been having for the past

year, since the pipe broke and caused all this mold. I've tried to tell him

that the mold causes all these things. But I don't think he believes me.

Or maybe he doesn't want to believe me since there's not much that can be

done right now. Now that the weather is wet and the siding is still off of

the house and there's still lots of mold underneath the home... we can't

begin to clean it underneath until the weather is dryer he says. But I'm

going to find a way! My six-year-old granddaughter, who lives with me, has

had symptoms all along, when ever I do, because she's exposed when I am. I

really worry about her. Now it's affecting her grades too. We can't afford

professionals but I've done lots of research on how to get rid of it... so

it's just a matter of doing it as weather permits and as I can afford it.

Well enough rambling about my situation. God bless all of you. You are

always in my prayers.

In God's Love,
