I have the dandruff problem which is more severe during winter. I apply pure coconut oil daily morning before bath. Recently I underwent radiation treatment for Buccal cancer for 33 days. Since then I have more dandruff. By simply scratching my head lot of white patch of scalp flakes fall.. Also I am developing baldness in the central part of head. Kindly suggest me a remedy. Thanks in advance.

Dear, shampoos and oils do not make much change because, they hardly penetrate layers of skin, where roots (live part of hair) are present. Instead concentrate on food, if all other factors are fine. -protein rich diet, dry fruits-almonds, dates.
