It is permissible to perform ghusl without wetting the head if you are unable to do so due to a medical condition. You can wash the rest of your body as usual, ensuring that you maintain the necessary cleanliness.
Here’s how to perform ghusl in this situation:
Begin by making the intention (niyyah) for ghusl. Then, wash your body thoroughly, ensuring that water reaches all parts except for the head. You can use a wet cloth to wipe the head if needed, but avoid direct contact with water. After completing the washing of your body, you can consider yourself in a state of purity.
For further details, refer to the following sources: Islamic Jurisprudence - Volume 4 - On Ghusl + Volume 1 - On Ghusl
In case of any doubts regarding the validity of your ghusl:
It is important to ensure that you have performed the ghusl correctly. If you are unsure, you may consult a knowledgeable person or refer to religious texts to clarify your doubts. Remember that the intention and the act of washing the body are essential components of ghusl.
