Dandruff


Understanding Dandruff
Dandruff, also known as seborrheic dermatitis, is a common scalp condition characterized by white or yellow flakes, itching, and irritation. It can be caused by an overgrowth of a yeast-like fungus, irregular oil production, or sensitivity to hair products. Though not a serious medical issue, dandruff can be both embarrassing and uncomfortable. Various treatments, such as specialized shampoos and lifestyle changes, can help manage the condition effectively. Understanding the underlying causes of dandruff can lead to better control and relief from its symptoms, improving overall scalp health and comfort.
