Ithcy scalp
I am having an itchy scalp which is followed with dark patches on the back side of neck. Whenever the environment turns out to be hot it itches a lot however I get some relief in cold environment. I am suffering from this problem since the month of June. Kindly suggest what to do as it is getting worse day by day. Also my skin near the ears has darkened.
