“I have dandruff for many years! I tried all shampoos but if I don’t take head bath it comes back again and again!”

Dandruff is the most common problem that may occur to everybody. White dry flakes constantly found while brushing, gathering on color and shoulder really gives a source of embarrassment, and the itch that may come with it is a genuine nuisance. Medically, dandruff takes the terminology as “Pityriasis Capitis or Seborrhoeic dermatitis.” Many people assume that the problem has something to do with hygiene and often wash their hair. Frequent shampooing can wash the scalp, but the existing cause remains as such.


Why dandruff recurs?

Our Body surface skin continuously sheds dead skin cells. Dandruff refers to increasing amounts of flakiness on the scalp, represented by increased turnover of the cells, which adhere to each other. This can involve any hair bearing area of the body including the eyelids. Normally the fakes are dry and white.

Greasy and yellow fakes resulted from abundant secretion of oil substance “sebum” by sebaceous glands. The hormone “Androgens” controls this glandular activity, which is very active during puberty. This is the reason why many teenagers complain pimples and dandruff simultaneously. Some Times the leading cause of this is a fungus, called Mallasezia or Pityrosporum

Dandruff may cause intense itching, which makes you scratch that leads to infection, resulting with oily secretions in scalp and yellowish brown scabs smelling bad. Most commonly, this type is confused with psoriasis. Psoriasis can be well differentiated by its enormous silvery scaling with red base. Other causative factors include food allergies, excessive sweating, use of alkaline soaps and stress. Dandruff by itself does not lead to hair loss, but some fungal infection may cause patchy hair loss.
