    It may be a fungal infection. Look for a dandruff shampoo that contains Selenium sulphide and use this on the patches rubbing in a fingertip amount thoroughly. Leave for 2 minutes, wash off dry thoroughly. Also get some cream which contains 1% clotrimazole. There is one made by Canesten. Rub a small amount of this into the patches every day before bed. Using both these treatments it should clear up in a couple of weeks.
