Can FFA or LPP cause cyst-like bumps on the scalp within the first inch and a half or so of the hairline?

Asked By:pclarktor in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Recently some persistent cyst-like bumps have been developing on my scalp within the front hairline as well as above and around my ears near the hairline. I do not have acne prone skin. Could these bumps be from FFA or LPP activity? What do you recommend to treat these bumps? Thank you.
