Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

There may be seborrhoea on the scalp so, the hairs may be sticky. I would recommend you to apply Ketaconazole lotion on the scalp at night and to do shampoo with shampoo containing Ketoconazole daily. Do not oil the scalp for few weeks.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel, Dermatologist
