My three year old son has white crusty scabs on his scalp. I have noticed the dry patches before, but they were usually not attached. I have now found quite a few patches that are attached. They feel like lumps on his head but peel off. Can you tell me what they are?
Hi read your question Your child has crusty scab no the scalp Which was attache with scalp Its mostly seborrhea dermatitis For this u have to use antifungal shampoo twice-weekly To soften thick patch first, rub mineral oil onto the area and brush gently to help peel scales off. Use warm water and massage the affected area Avoid scratching of head. If not improve then show your pediatrician or skin specialist
