Mgt: You may have a contact dermatitis or seborrheic dermatitis. I would suggest using a shampoo without fragrance such as Dove. You can use a good moisturizer such as Eucerin several times per day, and avoid prolonged exposure to hot water. If no improvement, a visit with your doctor or uploading an image to Healthtap is advised.
