Severe and Persistent Flaking of scalp.
I have been suffering from a dandruff problem for years now. My scalp and skin, in general, seem exceptionally dry at all times. Right after washing my hair, I get thick stubborn dandruff flakes in the front of my scalp which only comes off if scratched out. It never seems to go or even reduce. Should I be concerned this will never get cured?

You can use Salsa KT lotion as shampoo for now. But you need to get your scalp properly examined to know whether the excessive flaking is because of seborrheic dermatitis or an inflammatory condition like psoriasis. Kindly do not delay the treatment and get a consultation done with a qualified dermatologist how are you can get an online consultation privately with pictures if you wish. Hope this is helpful.
