But I Bet There's A Word For Sunburn Peeling

Tanya writes:

I love running my fingers through my hair, and sort of massaging my scalp. I sometimes find little hard things that I am addicted to picking off. I do not have dandruff or lice, they feel sort of like grains of fine sand and I thought they could be whiteheads on my scalp. Any ideas what this is?

You know, Tanya, I know exactly what you're talking about - and I can't find anything via Google to define it. There's a lot of information on scalp disorders out there, but not much on healthy, but slightly pickable, heads.

Your theory of whiteheads sounds as good as any - and if you think to ask your doctor at your next checkup, let us know what she says!
