Dry scalp - What to do?

DS has a very dry skin in his forehead.

It's "crusty". I tried aquafore but his skin turns red after a while it has been applied.

Now, it's all over the top of his head too. It's not like spots. It's like the whole skin is dry in the whole layer.

I shampood his hair yesterday and it turns into something like white wet skin cells but it does not shed.

What can I do/use? Should I call the ped?

If it's cradle cap, my DD had that, we rubbed her head with baby oil before her bath. It really helped.

My baby has that in her eyebrow area....I put lotion on it everyday and sometimes baby oil.
It's nothing bad - read the link the poster gave above - very helpful!

DD had that, we were using a cradle cap baby shampoo that helped but never really cleared it up completely. The doctor recommended adult Head and Shoulders... after two times using it, it was gone!

We used olive oil & gently combed the flakes out, then bathed her.

I used Burt's Bees apricot baby oil for 5 minutes before his bath.
