Suggest Treatment For Persistent Hair Fall And Dandruff
Question: I am living in New XXXXXXX from last 6-7 months. In beginning, I haven't suffered from hair fall and dandruff but from last 2 months i am having dandruff and so hair fall. I am using tree tea oil (3-4 drops)along with coconut oil once a day from 13 feb. There is a little bit decrease in hair fall but not in dandruff and i can feel little bit itching also. I have stopped using chemical containing shampoo. Also taking protein in sufficient amount. What should i do for this dandruff ? There is no lice problem. Not any other medical problem as well. I am also not sure if the scalp is too dry (it should not be) or it is dandruff (or whatever). Please help.
Brief Answer:
Ketoconazole shampoo and lotion containing beclomethasone & clotrimazole
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have gone through your complaints.
If I was your treating doctor I would recommend you to use Ketoconazole shampoo twice weekly and apply a lotion containing combination of beclomethasone and clotrimazole on the affected itchy areas of the scalp twice daily for 2 weeks.
Once the itching reduces you can stop the lotion but continue with the shampoo.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
