According to your symptoms ..i think you have seborrheic dermatitis this causes dandruff like scales with Itchy patches which peels off when scratched and exudes blood and pus like fluid..Its better to consult a doctor in person to confirm diagnosis and get treated soon ..try homoeopathy..Permanent cure for all skin complaints available in homoeopathy
