Hello,
Scalp fungus can be managed by use of anti-fungal shampoo. Keeping the scalp clean is also required to maintain fungus free scalp. I suggest you to consult a dermatologist for clinical assessment and thus management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
