Dandruff on scalp in small region
15 days back I sensed small area of dry skin raised at some places in my scalp. When I removed it, it was slightly sticky when I pressed on that area. After that, I also observed fine dandruff at one or two places specifically. Other area of scalp is clean. It doesn't itch or irritate. But it has increased its area on scalp. I am not sure , what it is and how to go about it. I have started using ketakenazol after I saw the dandruff at specific places only. Please suggest what this would be!!
