Hi,
Thanks Zfor writing to us.
Firstly It has to be ascertained whether you are having scalp psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis(severe dandruff)
For the same consult a qualified dermatologist, so that a proper diagnosis based treatment can be instituted.
Nevertheless, in the interim, you may start with
ketoconazole and tar based shampoo like protar k or konaz ct. Use it three days in a week. Apply the shampoo, let it sit over your scalp for 10 minutes and rinse.
apply steroid and salicylic acid lotion in night like topisal or diprovate s etc.
For the confirmation of diagnosis either you may consult a dermatologist nearby or use ASK A SPECIALIST feature of this website.
Hope that helped.
Take care
