I experience itchy spot only on the middle lower part of the back scalp. I will try to decsribe better.Have no redness, no any visible signs of skin problems, no pain.

But when I touch I feel kind of bumpy scalp at the connection to the neck at the hair line.Could not find anything similar on the Internet .

Drs-they do not see any problems. Nevertheless ,my concern if it is bumpy spot could be some cancerous grow. Is anybody have the answer.

Appreciate, thank you all

This forum is for people with ATRIAL FIBRILLATION so maybe not the best place to ask. Could be lots of things I guess but why think cancer? Doctors should have looked at that possibility. Try medicated shampoo and rinse well.

I assumed that healthunlocked.com - forum for health issues, not only for AF. But thanks for respond anyway. What kind of medical shampoo you have mentioned ? Thanks

There are a great number of different forums within HUL. My point is that if there is a more appropriate forum then you may get better advice.

I see you have AF Alemo27. Do any of your medications mention the side affect of itching or skin problems?

Try typing the word itching into the Search AF Association box at the top right of this page and then press Enter. It will throw up all of the posts on here that mention itching.
