Before suggesting anything we need to know if it's infected or why it is recurring.  So detailed discussion is required. Book an appointment with us for  proper guidance and treatment.

You can use ketoconazole based shampoo for dandruff and if it's not resolving with that you need to plan for higher medication which needs physical consultation.
