Flaky dandruff

2016-04-17 08:20:31
Flakes of dandruff are falling off regularly. I was diagnosed with eczema recently and I had a rash which occurred at the same place again and again..although the rash has reduced significantly the scalp issue is regular now. I take a lot of stress due to studies. Is eczema the problem here? If it is, is it curable?
