Male patient noticed this rash/scar tissue on the back of hi | Figure 1
Male patient noticed this rash/scar tissue on the back of his head when he shaved it for the first time.
It doesn't have any loose tissue so I can't send it for a KOH test. Anyone have a similar experience?
My ddx: candida or scar tissue. Anything else I should consider.

Saw general surgeon who diagnosed scar tissue. Internist disagrees. Any thoughts?? I'm lost on this one!
