What is Scalp Itch and Dandruff?
Scalp itch and dandruff are common conditions characterized by an itchy scalp and flaky skin. Dandruff results from excess shedding of dead skin cells and can be linked to fungal infections, seborrheic dermatitis or scalp psoriasis. Treatment typically involves using medicated shampoos, topical lotions and maintaining a proper scalp hygiene routine.
