Hello doctor. I am having severe itching in scalp and dandruff problem for very long time. I have consulted many doctors and taken medicines but again and again this problem comes. I have hair fall issues also because of this. My skin becomes very dry in humid conditions. Please give me a permanent solution as this problem is keeping on repeating for the past 5 years.
