Fungal dandruff, an oily scalp, dry skin, stress, poor nutrition, or inflammation of the scalp are common causes of hair loss with dandruff and scalp peeling. Regularly wash your hair and apply a Ketoconazole-containing anti-dandruff shampoo two to three times a week, leaving it on your scalp for a few minutes before washing. If your scalp is greasy, stay away from excessive oil application, harsh hair treatments, and scratching. Consume foods high in protein, fruits, nuts, and water. If you have severe itching, redness, patchy hair loss, pus, or persistent substantial hair loss, please consult a dermatologist as you may require vitamin testing or appropriate scalp therapy.

Severe dandruff that does not improve with shampoo can be due to a strong scalp infection, excess oil, or conditions such as seborrheic skin changes. Wash regularly, leave the shampoo on for a few minutes before rinsing, avoid heavy oils, and keep the scalp clean and dry. Try to manage stress and maintain a healthy diet to support scalp health. If there is still no relief, consult a doctor to check the scalp and guide stronger or targeted treatment.

Indeed, because oil and flakes from the scalp can irritate the skin, dandruff can occasionally make pimples worse, particularly on the face and forehead. Wash your hair frequently and use a Ketoconazole-containing anti-dandruff shampoo two to three times a week. Avoid using oily hair products, keep hair out of your face, and wash your face twice a day with a mild cleanser. Squeezing pimples can leave marks, so avoid doing so. A dermatologist may recommend harsher scalp treatments or acne creams if dandruff or acne are severe or recurring.
