The Important Things About Severe Dandruff.

By Antin.    Dandruff is an excessive amount of larger-than-normal flakes of scalp. Even a mild dandruff can disturb some people by itching and performing flakes that embarrassed them. If you have tried dandruff shampoo for several weeks and have no improvement in your condition, you probably have severe dandruff. Be careful, severe dandruff may be a symptom of more serious conditions such as eczema, psoriasis or seborrhoeic dermatitis.

Seborrhoeic dermatitis causes greasy, bran-like scale in scalp. Dandruff that caused by Seborrhoeic dermatitis becomes worse during the winter and tends to improve during the summer. In summer sunlight relieves the symptoms of dandruff. Pityrosporum ovale is a kind of fungus that is significant factor in seborrhoeic dermatitis. Dandruff shampoos that contain antifungal such as ketoconazole control Pityrosporum ovale and relieve the symptoms of dandruff.

As well as winter, stress and serious illnesses can cause an increase in the production of scale and make dandruff getting worse. In this condition, releasing stress and treatments of illnesses is needed beside dandruff treatment itself.

Some people with severe dandruff may have psoriasis disorder. Psoriasis is a noncontagious and chronic disease of the immune system that causes rapid skin cell reproduction resulting in red, dry patches of thickened skin. The dry flakes and skin scales are thought to result from the build-up of the rapid production of skin cells.

See your doctor soon in order to diagnose the cause of your severe persistent dandruff and get prompt treatment.
