Excess dandruff in hair
Hi..I am currently having excessive dandruff in my hair. The condition is such that the flakes stick around on all the strands and are visible even from far away. This problem has increased to a level that now I feel severe irritation while doing a hair wash and now I also have lice in my hair.
Please suggest something asap.

Why have you not visited a dermatologist? It's better that you go show yourself to one. The skin is the largest organ of the body... hope you understand its importance.

Avoid using hair oil. Apply perlice 1% cream 45 minutes before taking bath in your hair till roots and wash it off with shampoo. Repeat every 7-10 days. Kindly send image of the affected area for better consultation.
