Red Blotchy Scalp Help !!!!

[lenny59]

Hi

Anyone else had this ?????

Last couple of days I have had red blotchy areas on my scalp (Male shaved head)........

Have been vaping for 8 weeks now and not had a problem before

Only thing I can think of is I tried a "Super VG+" e-liquid 2/3 days ago......and vaped it for 2 days

Would VG cause a reaction like this?

I have now switched to 70/30 PG/VG

Nevr had this before even when smoking......Trip to the doc's or see how it developes????

I would wait and see, doubt it is serious enough to bother a doctor about.

Like i mentioned in a previous thread i have a red blotchy face at the mo which i am putting down to Apple and Blackberry juice so yours could be related i suppose

Ive been taking antihistamines to get over it.

Welcome to the club mate

Just to add that i have been to the doctors and tried loads of the strongest creams,shampoo etc and nothing shifts it for me.I vape heavy PG mixes and PG causes dry itching,blotches etc.I can't use much VG as i can't breath when using that stuff.A 50/50 mix is terrible as it gives me both sets of symptoms at the same time.I now just put up with it but it isn't nice.I was fine for the first 6 months or so then this just started happening for no apparent reason.Both me and my dad vape and suffer exactly the same so it is definately 1000% down to vaping unfortunately.You may be lucky and get over it though,best of luck.If you do find a miracle shampoo or cream then please let me know the name of it

I will say one thing though,we are all different so hopefully you will manage to shift what you are suffering mate.I have been putting up with my issues for well over two and a half years now,my dad has had it for three years.It's just more annoying than anything but i refuse to go back to the smokes so what do you do?

[lenny59]

Yeah.......I'm thinking its the VG for me

But I will see how I go on with this 70/30 PG/VG juice

If it does clear up then I will post on here.....Suppose it could be useful to someone in the future

Try some anti-hystamines Lenny, you can get non-drowsy ones!

Yes I was thinking that......Think wifey has some for her hayfever in the summer........They'd be ok would they ?

They'd be fine, just check they're non drowsy if your going to be driving or anything!

Ive noticed since vaping, my skin is much drier, I have to double moisturise every day now, Argan oil is good, you only need a tiny bit (i vape vg50/50pg)
