Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some chronic infection on your scalp like fungal infection, seborrhic dermatitis, eczematous dermatitis,dandruff etc.
This requires evaluation of your case.
Consult dermatologist and get it diagnosis properly.
After proper diagnosis proper plan of treatment can be made.
Ok and take care.
