Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The scalp infection is likely due to fungal infection. It would be great if you can send me the picture to confirm it. If it's fungal, then start applying Ketoconazole shampoo and improve hygiene.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
