[Acne]Need Help with Scalp Acne

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've always had mild but persistent acne problem on my face and a very severe acne problem on my scalp(like waking up with pillow with blood because the pimple on my scalp popped).Six years ago, my derm recommended me to use Nizoral shampoo, and it worked like magic. I used it once a week initially, but then after a while it stopped working. I started to use it twice a week and it started to work again. Cut the story short, shortly before I started accutane, I rotate between neutrogena t-gel, selsum blue, and nizoral every day(on top of clyndamycin topical on affected area).My derm then put me on accutane, and that was probably the best time of my life. Everything cleared up, including the KP on my arm.Fast forward today(8 months after accutane), acne on my face is gone, but both KP and the acnes on my scalp came back. I tried some people's suggestion of using organic products(Lush), and it only made it worse. I also tried the experiment of not washing my hair daily(because some people claim that by removing the oil it actually increases the oil production). I tried that for 3 weeks(washing with only clean hot water), and the result was horrendous. There was no patch of skin on my head that had no cystic acne. Everywhere I touch had bumps. It was quite gross. I went back to using Nizoral everyday, and it help contains it. Most of it cleared up, but I still have 5-10 bumps at any given time(as opposed to 30-40 bumps, and yes I count them because I use clindamycin topical on affected area.)Is there a way to clear it? Should I go back to accutane again?
