How To Treat Itching Sensation And Flakes In Scalp?

At the end of last week I switched to a new (tea tree oil) shampoo. Over a few days itchiness and flakiness quickly developed and my scalp became tender to the touch. I have not had these conditions before. I have discontinued the use of the shampoo this weekend but the itch has become sharper and most constant. Is it possible that I had an allergic reaction to the shampoo?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is very much clear that the allergic reaction is developed due to the shampoo only and better now avoid this, hope this helps, take care and have a nice day.
