HOMOEOPATHY FOR DANDRUFF
Dandruff is a common
chronic scalp condition marked by flaking of the skin on your scalp. Although
dandruff isn't contagious and is rarely serious, it can be embarrassing and
sometimes difficult to treat.
The good news is that
dandruff usually can be controlled. Mild cases of dandruff may need nothing
more than daily shampooing with a gentle cleanser. More stubborn cases of
dandruff often respond to medicated shampoos.
For most teens and adults, dandruff symptoms are easy to spot:
white, oily looking flakes of dead skin that dot your hair and shoulders, and a
possibly itchy, scaly scalp. The condition may worsen during the fall and
winter, when indoor heating can contribute to dry skin, and improve during the
summer.
A type of dandruff called
cradle cap can affect babies. This disorder, which causes a scaly, crusty
scalp, is most common in newborns, but it can occur anytime during infancy.
Although it can be alarming for parents, cradle cap isn't dangerous and usually
clears up on its own by the time a baby is 3 years old.
