Scalp itchiness
Hi doctor, I am suffering from scalp itchiness for more than one month. I fell so embarrassed because of it. I don't have any dandruff in my hair and I don't have dry scalp, it is not so oily and not so dry. Please tell what can be the reason for this itchiness? And I can cure it? Thank you in advance
