hello,
it seems like it could a fungal element at the base of the dandruff.?
you need to see a dermatologist who may be able to suggest a shampoo and a cream to apply for sometime and see how you improve
there are many reasons for the head dandruff/.
irritated and oily skin, a condition also known as seborrheic dermatitis (a more severe form of dandruff) not shampooing enough, which causes skin cells to accumulate and create flakes and itching. yeast called malassezia, which aggravate your scalp and cause excess skin cell growth.
Dirty hair doesn't cause dandruff, but if you don't wash your hair often enough, the oily buildup can contribute to flakes. One way to tell the difference between dry scalp and flakes from dandruff is by their appearance. ... Both dryness and dandruff can make your scalp itch.
hope this helps thanks
