When to Visit a Healthcare Provider
In most cases, dandruff is a harmless condition that does not require medical attention. Some OTC conditioners and shampoos would help manage the symptoms effectively. If it persists or becomes worse, talk with your doctor to choose better options. For those people with scalp psoriasis, medical monitoring is necessary to resolve the underlying cause. If you notice any itchy, red patches on the scalp, make sure to visit a healthcare provider as soon as possible as it would indicate the presence of psoriasis. Early diagnosis and treatment will help prevent your situation from getting worse. [10]
