Seborrhoic dermatiti: The findings are compatible with seborrhoic dermatitis which is caused by a fungus. Consult with your doctor for a shampoo that can help you.

I develop an itchy scalp every few days. It seems like dandruff - when I rub I can see small white things falling off. When I wash my hair with shampoo, I have to rub my scalp with a towel to get rid of the flakes. What could it be? In my ear as well?
