White flakes on scalp

2017-06-02 05:03:04
Hi I have developed a dead skin and white flakes on my scalp. It looks like a dandruff but I guess this is not dandruff as It's at just some part of head not everywhere. Sometime I feel too much itching also, specially at night. As a home remedies I applied lemon juice, itching settled to an extent but flakes are still there. Is there any help you can suggest please
