Avatar f tn Have you tried dandruff shampoos? Maybe washing your hair less often would help. Pregnancy can cause some crazy changes during and after, my hair for instance I can wash it and pull out a hanful of hair. I shed worse than an animal! Lol.
4315059 tn?1352675085 Years ago I was prescribed zithromax. I took the pills as I should but was not told to go on probiotics. Soon after I got a massive fungal rash on my back, and got bad dandruff. Later, I noticed that I had what seemed to be "ear dandruff", and my ear was sometimes itchy. After months of tryin I finally got rid of the rash on my back, but the dandruff has persisted for years. Now I have had a painful earache went to the hospital emergency room one evening.
Avatar f tn Early 2012, she used this certain anti-dandruff shampoo and it worked well, but after a few months of using it, the dandruff came back and seemed to have become stubborn. Now, no matter what kind of anti-dandruff shampoo she uses, it won't disappear. She used to have thick hair, now it seemed to have thinned a bit, as well, because of hairfall which may be related to it. Any advice??
Avatar m tn i would like to be able to use my normal shampoos that i have and to just be happy and comfortable and not have to worry anymore. ANY advise would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU!
Avatar n tn finally, I have to ask this - why do dermatologists always disagree? Every time I go to dermatologists to get second/third opinions, they ALWAYS disagree, they ALWAYS prescribe different stuff, and they ALWAYS give me lots of coupons and free samples.
Avatar f tn No matter what i do, for the past 9 years i have had what i thought was severe dandruff. however, i have tried every single anti-dandruff solution they sell and most just make my head more itchy. its weird cuz my scalp comes off in larger chunks than i thought dandruff was. it is also slightly yellower. it is constant, i never have a break from it. its super embarassing too, because i cannot resist to itch it and once i start to scratch i can't stop for like 2 or 3 minutes.

Avatar f tn t say it exactly whether its dandruff or what , to look at it when I cut some hair down there, some dandruff like thing fall down, but it is not of huge amount ,its very less. I can't understand what should I do . I want to be ok ...And also I have a question regarding the cream or shamppo that the doc told me to use , should I use them or not ? Actually when I visited her I didn't know about the dandruff kind of thing so I didn't tell her .

436973 tn?1217947089 Well, if you are sure this isn't dander, then it could be mites, fleas, sunburn or sensitivity to something new in the house, like new carpet, or new odor eliminating spray. Anything new in the house that you recall? Usually, winter is a season when many places become extremely dry. What are the humidity levels in your place? If your hands feel very dry, then your cat might be experiencing this as well. Check her for parasites, fleas, mites etc. Is she indoors or outdoors?
Avatar f tn I recently shaved my head, I do this once every two months and I notice some round red patches that were not there before. They are completely flat, I had no hair loss in the areas and they are not itchy at all. The patches began hurting after I shaved my head. I am thinking tinea capitis but that's just a guess. The only flaking I had was general dandruff I've always had and treated with anti dandruff shampoo, this red spot is new.
Avatar f tn Hi, Im not sure if I have posted in the right place but anyone's help would be greatly appreciated. For some time now, I have the urge almost constantly to run my fingers through my hair to find any loose dandruff particles that I would then pull out and roll in my fingers. I don't know why. It's soothing, yes, but I don't do it when I'm particularly stressed, I just do it when I'm comfortable.
Avatar m tn what can i do about oily dandruff? all the things available in the market seem to be for dry dandruff. what products should i be using? any changes in my diet or lifestyle u could recommend?
Avatar f tn I believe you're overthinking it. Greasy hair has nothing to do with patm. I can greasy hair as well if I don't shower in 2 or 3 days. And I used to have dandruff (if you call that film) like crazy way before I developed patm. To have greasy hair and dandruff is normal.
Avatar f tn ve experienced extremely dry and flaky scalp. Can you look at these photos and tell me what it is? Dry scalp, dandruff, scalp psoriasis, or seborrheic dermatitis. The bad part is, I just washed my hair on Monday night. I washed it, conditioned it, put a little of olive oil (food-grade), then I braided my hair in about 8 plaits. I have to wash my hair every week b/c of my scalp. I'm unable to wear twist-outs/braid-outs or any hairstyle that requires me to wear my hair out.
Avatar f tn Hello, This sticky substance can be due to dandruff and the small bumps can be due to clogged pores. Eat a healthy diet. You can also take vit B6 and vit A and E which are good for hair and skin. Try medicated shampoos for dandruff. There are a number of over-the-counter shampoos available that can help. The most effective ingredients -- antimicrobials -- to look for are zinc pyridinethione, selenium sulfide, sulfur and ketoconazole (also available by prescription).
Avatar n tn wash your face at least once a day. two times tops (once in the morning, once at night) try not to touch your face to much because of all the oil on peoples hands and dont eat to much sugar.
