Dandruff problem
Hi there, I am having dandruff problem on my scalp since 4-5 years. I feel itching on my scalp so badly. Dandruffs on my scalp are not that dry, these are sticky type and oily also. I have visited skin specialist also, but nothing changed. Simultaneously I am facing a large amount of hair loss, pimples on my forehead only, and allergies on my eyes. I don't know if these problems are related or not. But I am facing these problems after dandruff came. Pls help me out. And pls advise me what kind of shampoo and oil (brand) I can use.

Dandruff is a problem caused due to excessive shedding of dead layer of skin. It can be easily controlled easily with medicated shampoos like Kerglo AD or sebowash. Use the shampoo at least 2-3 times in a week and rinse off after leaving on for 3-5 mins.but there is no permanent cure for dandruff. For the acne and other allergy problem its better to consult a dermatologist in person since it requires a more closer observation to suggest proper treatment
