Seborrheic Dermatitis. Its due to increased sebum(oil) production from scalp. So take head bath everyday with gentle cleanser shampoo(Hair 4 U shampoo). Weekly twice with ketoconazole shampoo (Scalpe + shampoo or Keraglo AD shampoo). Don't do oil massage as it increases dandruff. If severe itching take tab levocetrizine 5mg.
