[|AI|]  Hello. Thanks for writing to us at Chat Doctor. I would keep a possibility of infantile seborrhea dermatitis, which can present as greasy adherent scales, erythema on the scalp and is usually associated with hair loss. This condition is quite common in infants. If I was the treating doctor I would have asked you to use a 5 % certified based shampoo, daily or on alternate days. Cetrimide is antiseborrheic and antiseptic. In my patients, I usually also ask to use a moderately potent topical steroid e.g. fluticasone propionate 0.05%, twice daily, for faster resolution of the dermatitis. This is a prescription product and I would suggest that you seek an appointment with a dermatologist before trying it. Regarding the hair loss, it is completely reversible, and you need not worry about that. Regards
