Dandruff (Itchy Scalp)
Dandruff is common and frustrating, causing flakes, itching, or both. Medicated shampoos with ketoconazole, selenium sulfide, or zinc pyrithione can really help—if you use them the right way.
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Seborrheic dermatitis, the rash behind dandruff, is common and often itchy with visible flakes. Medicated dandruff shampoos work well—if used properly.
Cradle Cap (Seborrheic Dermatitis)
Cradle cap is a common scalp condition in babies, causing yellow flakes and thickened skin. Oils and medicated dandruff shampoos can effectively treat it when used correctly.
