Health Queries

I have a severe dandruff problem along with itching on my scalp. Could you please suggest appropriate treatment or medication?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Severe dandruff with itching is often caused by a fungal infection or scalp inflammation. Use a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo (such as ketoconazole-based) 2 to 3 times a week, leaving it on the scalp for a few minutes before rinsing. If itching is intense or not improving, consult a dermatologist for prescription lotion or treatment.

I have been suffering from dandruff for the past 10 years. I have tried many medicated shampoos, but none of them have shown any improvement. The dandruff appears like fine dust or powder on my scalp. What could be the cause, and what treatment would you recommend?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Long-standing dandruff that looks like fine dust may be due to chronic dry scalp, seborrheic dermatitis, or even psoriasis. Use a medicated shampoo regularly (leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes) and avoid harsh hair products or excessive oiling. If it has not improved despite treatment, it is best to see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and therapy.

I am experiencing hair fall and dandruff. During bathing, I notice about 10 to 20 strands of hair falling daily. Is this normal, and what treatment would you recommend for hair fall and dandruff?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Losing about 10 to 20 hair strands during bathing is usually normal, but dandruff can increase hair fall due to scalp irritation. Use a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo regularly and maintain a healthy diet rich in protein, iron, and vitamins. If hair fall becomes excessive or persistent, consult a doctor to check for nutritional or hormonal causes.

I am experiencing hair fall along with dandruff. What can I do to treat both problems?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Hair fall with dandruff is often due to scalp inflammation or fungal buildup. Use a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo 2 to 3 times a week, keep your scalp clean, and avoid heavy oiling or harsh chemicals. If hair fall continues or is severe, consult a doctor to check for nutritional deficiencies or hormonal causes.

I have dandruff inside my ear, and I think I may have gotten it from my brother. I also have a small amount of dandruff on my scalp. What could be the cause, and how should I treat it?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Dandruff inside the ear and on the scalp is usually due to fungal growth or a condition like seborrheic dermatitis, and it is not typically spread from one person to another. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid inserting objects into the ear, and use a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo for the scalp. If itching or flaking inside the ear persists, consult a doctor for suitable ear drops or cream.
