Constant itching scalp

I have been dealing with intermittent itchy scalp for years. Before figuring out what actually helped I tried everything!! The only over the counter non prescription thing that helped was Selsun blue shampoo. For the best relief & results prescription steroid Clobetasol shampoo works best for me. I have recently been diagnosed with Grovers disease which causes parts of my body to itch & I get a rash periodically. I believe my itch scalp is part of having Grovers disease.

@ddaileygunther in my case Selsun Blue and Clobetasol shampoo didn’t work. I do believe everyone’s body is different so what works for one doesn’t for another.

My scalp has been extremely itchy for years. About nine years ago, I developed rashes on my lower legs that looked like petechiae, but itched. Tried steroids with no luck. Recently, my dermatologist prescribed Naltrexone for the itch. The relief was almost instantaneous. I had never tied together the itchy scalp with the problem on my legs, but Naltrexone helped both.
