POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. In an infant, scalp dryness usually results from cradle cap, or seborrheic dermatitis, which is very common and tends to occur in the first year of life. The condition usually resolves without treatment and rarely leads to discomfort. Home care can help reduce visible skin symptoms.
