HI
Well come to HCM
If it is not the fungal infection then Selsun shampoo will not work here, I would advise to try Povidone Iodine shampoo instead, because it is the broad spectrum antibiotic, along with this local steroid application can be used like Beclomethasone, seborrheic dermatitis nee to be ruled out, hope this information helps.
