Is this dry skin or a yeast issue?

She's molting a bit around the head but the white/possible dry spots on her comb and the side of her head....is that just from the molt, skin dryness or a possible yeast issue? IMG_20251019_133646749.jpg IMG_20251019_133658419.jpg IMG_20251019_133716727.jpg
 
Could be Fungal Infection or perhaps some scaly face mites.

Looks like she's molting too.

It won't hurt to apply some anti-fungal cream/ointment to the skin to see if that helps clear it up.
With all that's happening with my flock, I'm concerned as to which it may be. But did rub some monistat on her. Could it be cryoza?
 
Does she have any respiratory symptoms?

Infectious Coryza is a bacterial respiratory disease. Symptoms include coughing, sneezing, mucous, facial swelling with pus in the eyes and a very bad odor.
The area around her eye is swollen but not sure how much is from me trying to pull her eyelid down to put drops in. Her eye has a bubbly appearance in the corner. The flock likely has mycoplasma (vet thought this a couple of years ago) but have had much illness the last month now so don't know if that's causing this too or how to proceed. No coughing, mucus, sneezing, pus.
