Dandruff can be treated with lotions and shampoo (not commercial ones). Some people do have more oily scalp which cause visible flakes which we cause dandruff. There are some other conditions also which can present like flaking of the scalp. Dandruff can also be seen in male patterned baldness. Do not apply oil on scalp as it will increase the problem. Please contact me with photos through online consult option or visit me for treatment.,
