What is the best solution or treatment for heavy dandruff?
Asked by Female, 24 · 9 days ago
Heavy dandruff is usually due to fungal overgrowth or scalp inflammation. Use a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo (like one containing ketoconazole or zinc pyrithione) 2 to 3 times a week and leave it on the scalp for 3 to 5 minutes before washing. If itching or flakes do not improve after a few weeks, consult a dermatologist for stronger treatment.
