HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the dandruff then it can be best treated with "Povidone Iodine" shampoo it needs to be applied on scalp prior to bath and need to be left it there for 30 minute, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
