I am 24 year old female, having a lot of dandruff in the scalp. Also, there is white flaky skin in the scalp and sever itching. There are some red bumps as well after itching. I used emluz and sebifin plus on the red bumps, with that it got cured but after I stop applying it occurred again. Can you suggest some home remedy or allopathic since I live in ireland. Could you also explain the reason behind this problem?

First of all, these problems need treatment under the supervision of a dermatologist. Because if the diagnosis is not correct, your problem may not be solved. However, tinea infection or multiple reasons can cause these problems. Get the treatment of a good dermatologist now to get the right treatment. If you want, you can also take online video consult with us. Thanks. ?
