Yellow and reddish brown patch on scalp
Terrible hair loss and dandruff. The yellow and reddish brown patch on the scalp is from more than 1 year. No irritation just noticed when I apply oil or scratch due to itching on scalp.
Hi! Dandruff is a common occurence. It has a tendency to recur. You have to take continuous efforts to keep it at bay.
1. Shampoo hair as frequently as required. Keep the hair clean. 2. Avoid hair styling products till dandruff goes off. 3. Use anti dandruff shampoo which contains ketoconazole once or twice a week. 4.Oil clean washed hair. 5. Do not try to scrape or comb away the flakes. Be gentle with your hair and scalp. 6. Wash your combs and brushes regularly. Do not share them.
