Hi,
The white line on your forehead can be seborrheic dermatitis or even scalp psoriasis when it's crossing the hair line. Both of which need an examination for precise diagnosis.
They are a close differentials as both are itchy and cause redness and scaling of skin.
Next Steps
Kindly consult for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
