Dealing with Scalp Flakes and Itchiness? Here’s What You Can Do

If your symptoms don’t improve after a few weeks of consistent care—or if you notice worsening redness, swelling, or oozing—seek medical advice. A dermatologist can rule out infections (like fungal or bacterial) or other conditions (psoriasis, eczema).

Bottom Line

While seborrheic dermatitis can be stubborn, the right shampoo, gentle care, and avoiding irritants can make a big difference. Stay patient, and if things don’t clear up, a dermatologist can offer stronger treatments.

Hope this helps—hang in there! 🌿
