Hello. Do not use lemon as it may irritate your skin. Dandruff is a fungal infection of scalp which results in itching and flaky scales. It has a favour for oily areas of the body such as scalp, face,front and back of chest. Dandruff will also lead to itchy pimples on your face and chest. Use ketoconazole containing shampoo weekly twice for 1 to 2 months.
