My scalp is peeling badly, how can I fix this?!


Question: My scalp is peeling badly, how can I fix this?
I don't know what to do. I thought I just had dandruff, I've always had it, but worse in winter. Well now my scalp is literally starting to scale and peel. As if I got a sunburn up there and now its all dried out! I don't know what to do! I've just using tea tree oil and that helped a lot, but now it seems in just 2 days of not using it, its back even worse! I don't know what to do about it, I'm almost worried maybe its psoriasis or eczema, which I've never actually seen up close, so maybe eczema more than psoriasis.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Answers:

i think you have dandruff so for mild cases of dandruff you may need nothing more than shampooing more frequently. Daily cleansing with a dandruff shampoo to decrease oil and cell buildup can keep moderate dandruff in check, but consult your doctor about more stubborn forms such as seborrheic dermatitis.

Not all dandruff shampoos are alike, so you may need to experiment with them to find the one that works best for you. Here are some examples of some effective over-the-counter shampoos you can try
* Coal-tar preparations (Neutrogena T/Gel, Tegrin)
* Pyrithione zinc (Suave Dandruff Control, Pert Plus Dandruff Control, Head & Shoulders)
* Salicylic acid and sulfur (T-Sal, lonil T, Sebulex) http://answers.yahoo.com/question/answer?qid=20110303120147AAoPi34
* Selenium sulfide (Selsun Blue)
* Ketoconazole (Nizoral A-D) available as a 1% over-the-counter shampoo and a 2% prescription-strength shampoo.

There is an article about the difference between eczema and psoriasis that can be found here:

Either way, I think you'll benefit from taking the oil that they offer.
