Dandruff and reduced hair density

2025-09-19 05:46:21
I am experiencing dandruff since a long time, mostly on my scalp, it isn't visible but when i scratch my scalp, it comes out flaky. Some are even white solids sticking to the scalp. I am experiencing reduced hair density and hair thinning while I don't experience hair fall or hairs on my palm while brushing them with my hand.

Seborrheic dermatitis is a common scalp/skin condition causing dandruff, redness, and itching. It tends to be chronic with flare-ups. *Wash scalp/affected area regularly with mild medicated shampoo (zinc pyrithione/ketoconazole) *Avoid harsh products, oiling, or scratching *Keep stress and diet balanced, as both can worsen symptoms
Next Steps
Please consult me/your dermatologist for the right treatment plan to control flare-ups
Health Tips
Consistency with gentle care and prescribed treatment keeps it well managed.
