I am suffering from severe dandruff since past 10 years. I am 29 years male living in Delhi. I consulted a dermatologist 4 yes back and he prescribed noskurf lotion to be applied overnight and to be washed with protar-k shampoo in the morning. Situation improved then but was back within 2 months. I don't understand whether it is just dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis. I have also been losing hair and lost almost 50% of my hair in last 5 years. Please suggest a treatment for this irritating dandruff and increasing hairfall.

Hello. Your scalp has to be examined to know whether it is dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis. Dandruff can come back again and again. Use anti dandruff shampoos to keep it under check. Hair fall in males can be genetic and due to androgens. Certain lotions can control it. Visit a dermatologist for your recurring dandruff and hair loss.
