Eczema on scalp

Question

Eczema on scalp

Asked for Female, 21 Years

I have eczema on scalp for last two years. Water, sweat, heat, humidity irritates my scalp very badly. After irritation, the oil starts coming on the scalp in the form of inflammation. I have tried home remedies ACV, moisturisers but nothing helped. I have also taken homeopathy n ayurvedic treatment for it but didnt get any relief. Please help. Once I tried corticosteroid which reduced the oilyness and then there was no irritation and hair became mosturised but when I stopped using steroids it came back again.
