Consult a Dermatologist. The right person to answer this question is the Dermatologist.
I am going through the same thing. not on my scalp but the trunk of my body. my primary doctor says psoriasis and then i got a biopsy then they said it is general eczema (sp) and they gave me a lot of things. it seems to come out more in winter. sunlight helps a lot. but it is nerves i believe. in any case, i should post a picture to show you how bad it is for me and i can not get anyone to diagnose it for me. frustrating

If it is on your scalp tar shampoo or zinc would help. mine is on the trunk of my body and it makes it worse.
Your doctor should be able to tell. If not, a dermatologist can. During Winter it isn`t uncommon for our skin and scalp to be dry. You might want to limit how long you shower and how hot the water is.
Try using a dandruff shampoo like Head and Shoulders and see what happens. As strange as it may seem, most people with dandruff have oily skin and scalp, not dry skin.

I just though about this when i read something about it… I have always had severe dandruff, and I just didn’t know if there was an easy way to tell if I have something other than dandruff..
I have been using netrugenio t-gel for years and years… I just tryed a shampoo that has sylic acid in it i think… It seemed to work a little better, but not a lot…
