Hi. Greetings. This seems to be a very storage query. With the limited understanding of what you actually are suffering from , it's rather tough for me to advise online. For now I would suggest you to wash your scalp with a antifungal shampoo and see a qualified dermatologist near you at the earliest. Medicines for seborrhoeic dermatitis need not necessarily be expensive. Warm regards
