What to do if dandruff is too much and too big

Healthy hair should be free of dandruff, which is in fact the basic standard of beauty and hairdressing. In real life, many people develop good living habits due to objective reasons such as excessive drinking. There are a lot of dandruff on my body. The dandruff is big and numerous, which seriously affects my personal image. What should I do? What are some effective ways to get rid of dandruff in daily life?

Dandruff, medically known as pityriasis capitis, is a skin disease caused by Malassezia (a type of fungus). The massive reproduction of Malassezia on the scalp causes excessive proliferation of the scalp's stratum corneum, which in turn causes the stratum corneum cells to abnormally fall off in the form of white or gray scales. These shed scales are dandruff.

The causes of dandruff are usually divided into physiological and pathological. Natural dandruff is a product of the normal physiological metabolism of the scalp. It happens to everyone and usually falls off in the form of tiny particles smaller than 0.02mm. Therefore, it is not visible to the human eye and does not affect people's normal life and work. Dandruff is white or gray scales that appear when there are abnormal lesions on the scalp. It is caused by fungal infection and falls into the category of skin diseases. The scale particles are large and attached to the surface of the scalp or hair. They can easily fall off onto the shoulders and clothes when combing the hair or scratching.

Solution:

First, go to a regular hospital for dermatology treatment.

Second, pay attention to it in daily life. Since dandruff is caused by fungal infection (Malassezia), on the one hand, you should improve your scalp care awareness, and on the other hand, you should adjust your lifestyle and avoid eating fried, greasy, spicy and other foods. This can help regulate and protect the scalp's own balance, inhibit the excessive reproduction of Malassezia, and thus reduce the chance of dandruff.

Third, pay attention to daily scalp care; in addition, fungi are contagious to a certain extent, so maintaining good living hygiene among individuals and family members, and using separate towels, pillowcases, combs and other daily necessities can reduce the spread of Malassezia between people to a certain extent and play a role in preventing the occurrence of dandruff.
