Suggest Treatment For Dandruff Like Stuff Build Up On Head
Howdy, I get massive build up of dandruff type stuff on my head. (It s not Dandruff) or Psoriasis. Flakes like dandruff, builds up into large chunks on my head. At one time it was a yellow goo secreting out of the very top middle of my head. A lot of it, enough it would just run down my head. What is it? And better yet how do I treat/ get rid of it?

thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com......
well dandruff or seborrhic dermatitis generally presents with fine flakes...from your description it might be dandruff associated with some other skin condition...it may be due to some eczematous conditions or tinea infections....also it can be infected sebaceous cyst....
so it is better to visit a DERMATOLOGIST, get checked properly and he will give you medications accordingly...
hope this was helpful....
contact me for any further query...
