Dandruff
Why Do You Get Dandruff?
Dandruff is a common scalp issue that causes flakes and itching. It happens due to a mix of different reasons, such as:
Fungus (Malassezia): A type of yeast that naturally lives on the scalp. If it grows too much, it can cause irritation and dandruff.
Oily skin (Seborrheic Dermatitis): A skin condition that affects oily areas like the scalp, causing redness, itching, and flakes.
Dry skin: If your scalp is too dry, it can start flaking, leading to dandruff.
Skin conditions: Problems like psoriasis and eczema can cause dandruff-like symptoms.
Hair products: Some shampoos, conditioners, or styling products can irritate the scalp and lead to dandruff.
Diet: Eating too much sugar, fat, or dairy might make dandruff worse for some people.
Understanding the cause can help in choosing the right treatment to manage dandruff.
How to Treat Dandruff:
Dandruff treatment usually includes medicine and simple self-care steps:
Anti-fungal shampoos and creams: Special shampoos with ingredients like ketoconazole, ciclopirox, or selenium sulfide help control the fungus that causes dandruff.
Scalp peeling: Just like a face peel, this deep-cleans the scalp to remove buildup and flakes.
Oral medications: In severe cases, a doctor may prescribe antifungal pills to reduce inflammation and itching.
Self-care tips: Wash your hair regularly with a mild shampoo, avoid harsh hair products, and manage stress to keep dandruff under control.
Following these steps can help reduce dandruff and keep your scalp healthy.
