Dandruff

Dandruff Treatment in Kollam

Hair related problems are most common, especially in adults and dandruff tops the list. It is a common condition that causes the skin on the scalp to flake. However, this condition is not serious and not contagious. Hence, you don’t need to be panic. Effective treatment options are available to great dandruff. Using daily shampoo will hep treat mild dandruff conditions. If you are facing too much difficulty, then consult your dermatologist.

Most dandruff comes down to Malassezia, a yeast that lives naturally on everyone’s scalp but overgrows in some people, which is exactly why treatments like ketoconazole and selenium sulfide work, they target that yeast directly. If medicated shampoo has been used consistently without much change, or the flaking and irritation spread beyond the scalp to the eyebrows, ears or sides of the nose, it may be a more significant fungal infection that needs a different treatment approach.

When dandruff starts affecting your hair

Ordinary dandruff on its own rarely causes lasting hair loss, but the itching that comes with it often does more damage than the flaking itself. Constant scratching can weaken hair at the root and lead to noticeable shedding or breakage over time, especially if the scalp stays inflamed for months without treatment. If you’re dealing with both a flaky scalp and thinning that doesn’t seem to be slowing down, it’s worth getting them looked at together rather than treating the dandruff and hoping the hair thinning sorts itself out.
