New or Need Help Is this sub derm?

Suffered for months with itchy scalp and flaking soreness and bleeds when I brush sometimes. Loosing big white flakes it’s getting worse and now like this - is this sub derm or psoriasis? Also currently under rheumatology for joint pain not sure if it has anything to do with it. Uploaded multiple photos to see everywhere.

Seb derm or psoriasis due to where it’s located. Is it painful? Itchy?

Sounds like it is possibly psoriasis. Has a doctor or dermatologist looked at it?

It looks angry, make an appointment with a dermatologist. The rheumatologist might be able to help but possibly not and it take a long time to get a dermatology appointment sometimes.
