A member asked:
Why is my scalp smelly with itchy orangish dandruff ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dandruff: Todd you need to go see your Family Doctor or Pediatrician first to look at this. You may have an infection on your scalp causing this. They may refer you to a dermatologist. Either way you don't have to put up with this irritating stuff on your scalp.
