I recently shaved my head and there is redness(it itches) on some area of the scalp. I have attached some pictures to see if this is some general dandruff due to cold weather or is this any kind of fungal infection?

 

I do not see too much flakes unless I scratch my head with nails or a comb.

I agree with Jo: see a dermatologist. There is really no other way to confirm your suspicions.

 

Good luck!

only see one red spot pic 4

 

try using AQUANIL HC LOTION

 

it contains 1% Micronized Hydrocortisone

 

works wonders

 

if in one week you do not see an improvement STOP USE and see a derm

 

but this is what deems use as a first step for itchy, red skin without skin breakage

 

it's pricey though but OTC

I don't think so.

 

Sebhorrheic dermatitis accompanies lots of flaking.

 

Still if you have any doubts, do consult your dermatologist.
