Scaly skin around nose and scalp issues
I have been in this condition for a few years now. My skin occasionally gets very scaly, especially around my nose, behind my ears and below my eyebrows. Also, I develop dandruff very repeatedly. This is really troublesome. Can you please point me in the right direction? How common is this issue? Can it be addressed with a change in lifestyle, food intake etc? Does this situation require any medication?
