huge hard lumps on scalp

I have these big huge type cysts on my head mainly located in the middle of my scalp, doctors put me on tetracyclin but this does not seem to work,it is quit imbarrassing, i am a supervisor at a pretty big company so appearance is top priority for me. frankly these things are depessing,i first had these on my face and thats when my doctor diagnosed me with cystic acne,but when they disaapeared from my face and reappeared on my scalp he had no answers.These cists or whatever, get small some days get big on other days, i work out alot in the gym but when i sweat you can smell an infectous type order in my hiar dont understand this, can some one help me or point me in the right direction i had this problem for three years now and it is getting worst.

Hi,

Nothing can b said with surety without having a look at the lesions.

It would be best to consult a skin specialist about your symptoms and get a proper clinical examination.

Let us know what the skin specialist advises.

Keep us posted on how you are doing and if you need any other information.

Regards.
