Y son age 10 has a white crusty stuff on scalp, I have already spoken twice to a consultant who prescribed a tar like lotion to put on scalp at night, this took it off but also took the hair, it has not grown again. It is like cradle cap only worse looking, please help
Hi Dear welcome to the Chat Doctor, Seborrhic dermatitis leads to such symptoms. Ketoconzole shampoo 2% twice-weekly will help in relieving the symptoms. Avoid oil application. Wash hairs daily. Hope the query is answered. Thanks
