Hi Zuhaib,

Thanks for writing in.
The condition you are suffering is Seborrheic dermatitis.
It is a infective condition.

Treatment can be topical antifungals,steroids, minoxidil etc
Antifungals and steroids in topical form are very safe and effective.
Also oral ketoconazole for 2-3 weeks is extremely helpful.
Few scalp treatments may be required
They are available at dermatology clinics.

Also supportive oral tablets containing biotin and multivitamis can be helpful.

Hope this helps.

Regards
