Dandruff in mustache
I have the problem of dandruff and I am using head and shoulders shampoo . Last few days , I noticed that I got some dandruff cluster in my left side of mustache . If I scratch it will become red and I shaved the mustache finally . I saw some small redness (noticeable in mobile light ) in that area. Is dandruff in mustache normal ? Should I use any cream? Is that dangerous ?
Attached a screenshot of the affected portion
