It looks so sore :( . Even though I'm gentle she has spots that bleed, I almost would rather leave it alone, anyone with advice on how to help her is appreciated.
It used to be a single spot since she was a baby but lately its spreading. The doctor did not seem concerned and had no recommendations.

Hello Ltowne,
Re your 6 year old's scalp condition
Your description would suggest that it is acting like an infection. If mine, I'd give her a topical soaking of colloidal silver...just allowing the liquid to dry in the scalp and hair. I'd try a few times and if it seemed to help would continue repeating.
You didn't mention if there were indications that the infection, if that's what it is, is effecting her elsewhere. If so I'd give the CS orally allowing for weight. A grown adult might take two tablespoons three times daily. So obviously a lot less for a child.
I use lots of stuff for infection. One of my favs is Echinacea. But that might be too strong for a child's scalp.
