Answer:

It could be seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis. Someone, preferably a dermatologist should really look at your scalp to help determine which you have (though there are some cases that are really in between and sometimes called sebopsoriasis). Until then, you can certainly consider the over-the-counter shampoos having tar and/or salicylic acid (e.g. T/gel or T/sal are both made by Neutrogena...others are available and also good). The cause of seborrheic dermatitis is sometimes a yeast and there is a great prescriptions shampoo for this type. Psoriasis is usually more difficult to treat but there are many presciption and non-prescription treatments to be tried (a dermatologist is really the person with the most tricks for psoriasis). Hope this helps. :)

It could be scalp Psoriasis,a skin condition caused by sudden homonal changes, or an impeoper lifestyle, most people with this condition initially think it is dandruff,but believe me,dandruff is a boon compared to this disease, cos psoriasis does not have a known cure, dont mean to sdcare you, but please get it checked asap, if u have an itchy scalp, and keep shedding silverish scales of skin, it could be psoriasis. however all that said, it is also believed that it can be controlled by certain changes in lifestyle.
