Is it possible to have eczema on your head?

Yes: It is possible to have eczema on your head. There are however a few conditions which may mimic eczema on the scalp. The two most common are tinea capitis (a type of ringworm), and psoriasis. If this is an ongoing or longstanding problem, a culture of the area (ie. Dry flaky skin), should be taken. This can be used to determine if there is a fungal component. Specialized shampoos may be helpful.
