Chronic dandruff can irritate the scalp and trigger hair fall. Use medicated anti-dandruff shampoos 2–3×/week. Take Nutritional supplements if deficient. If it’s persistent, scalp may need topical prescription treatment.
Next Steps
Consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and faster relief.
Health Tips
Avoid oiling during active dandruff
