I am 26 years of age. I am Suffering from scaly and itchy skin for 3 yrs. I used to apply head and shoulder shampoo everyday for 8 years and stopped applying oil in that period. Now my scalp is dry along with very dry hair. White flakes and hair fall are excessive. What to do and do I need medication?

From your description it appears as if you are having scalp psoriasis in which I have itchy and flaky skin with dry hair and scalp. I'm not sure head and shoulders played a role in worsening your condition but yes you need treatment for it, proper homeopathic treatment. A detailed case history will help me decide whether it is psoriasis or just dry hair causing the hair fall. Then the further course of treatment can be decided. Meanwhile do oil your hair with warm coconut oil an hour before bath and then wash it off. Keep your comb separate and wash it daily. Drink lots of water. Try not to pull out the flakes or comb harshly, it will only worsen your condition. For more questions or treatment please feel free to contact me.
