Itching with small bumps and poor hair growth in one area can be due to a scalp infection, irritation, or blocked hair roots after hair removal. Keep the area clean, avoid scratching, use a mild shampoo, and avoid applying harsh oils or products on that spot. Try to keep the scalp dry and watch for redness, pain, or spread. Consult a doctor to check the scalp closely and guide proper treatment for healing and hair regrowth.
