Hi You seem to be having seborrhoeic dermatitis. This can be due to increase oil secretion from the sebaceous glands of the scalp. You may need oral anti fungal tablets and shampoo for regular use. Please contact a dermatologist who can examine you and prescribe the appropriate skin care products and treatments
