Is This dandruff?
Hello doctor,
My hair has these kind of dandruff patches at few places around the scalp and I also have severe hair fall.
These can be peeled and it creates red patches around. I have tried using anti fungal and anti dandruff shampoos but they don't help much . Pic included
Please advice.
