Hello-
fungal infection occurs due to decreased immunity and improper schedules.
Fungal infection on scalp results in dry and scaly white patches.
Decrease the use of shampoo as it can further make your scalp dry and increase hair oiling.
1) use presoria hair shampoo and dhurdhurpatradi hair oil.

Fungal infections on skin are the most common of all and are effectively treated with homeopathy. I advise you to stop allopathic treatment as it gives temporary results only with lots of side effects, it will recur once you stop medicines and homeopathic treatment cures it from roots without side effects. no chance of recurrence. you can consult me online for homoeopathic treatment without side effects.
