Dandruff or pityriasis sicca is associated with excessive scaling in the scalp and oversecretion of oil glands coupled with fungal infection play a crucial role. Dandruff can be managed with use of medicated shampoos along with tablets.

Kindly use a conditioner regularly to avoid damage to hair shaft. For a tailor made treatment regimen kindly consult.
