General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It seems that you could have a fungal infection over your scalp (mentioned area). I would insist you to get an image of the affected area and to share them here. I would also insist you to apply candid (clotrimazole) lotion over the affected area for a few days and see if it helps.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Iven Romic Rommstein, General Surgeon
