Suggest Treatment For Itchy Scalp

Hello Doc. I used to have a very healthy scalp while living in India, but since I moved to Canada 4 years ago, Iève started to get build-up of oil, dead skin and calcium on my scalp. It also itches and sometimes I get zit (pimple type) things/blisters. Please advise

General & Family Physician 's  Response
thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....

well it can happen from dryness of skin and scalp and since canada is a cold and dry country, it can happen....
it might be seborrhic dermatitis most likely....

so i would suggest you to use ketoconazole, tarr and clotrimazole based shampoo twice or thrice a week for a few months....
you can consult some DERMATOLOGIST also for further treatment...

hope this was helpful...
contact me for any further queries...

regards
I find this answer helpful
