Scalp Conditions

Scalp conditions are common problems that can affect hair growth, scalp health, and overall appearance. They may be caused by infections, hormonal imbalances, stress, or underlying medical issues. Common scalp issues include dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, fungal infections, and hair follicle inflammation. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to prevent hair loss, itching, or irritation. Modern dermatology treatments, combined with proper scalp care, can effectively manage these conditions and promote a healthy scalp environment.
