I have an adult female ball that has a few 'dry' scales on her back. I can only guess it has something to do with humidity. But otherwise she is in perfect health. Does anyone know what i can do to get rid of the problem??
Thanks!

What kind of set up do you have for her?

I have her in a rack system with bedding and her water bowl

I always keep a spray bottle so I can mist a little. I am sure her next shed it will come off.

Leave her be, next shed she'll prolly be perfect. It happens sometimes. Check the cage for any sharp edges - one of my babies had a few funky scales on her face and then I realized she'd been rubbing on an edge that was sharper than it seemed. 
Good luck!

Soak a snake bag or pillow case with water. Put her in it for a couple hours back in the rack and this should remove any left over shed. Works great!
