Question
How can I deal with the persistent dandruff on my child? Previous treatment and its effectiveness: After washing it clean, it grows back a few days later. I’ve used sesame oil and applied ‘999’ Erythromycin Ointment. It got clean then, but it grew back again a few days later. Lab test and detailed examination results: Haven’t seen a doctor yet. Desired assistance: How can I ensure that the child’s dandruff doesn’t grow back after washing it clean, as it regrows after a few days?
Answer
This situation seems to be related to a dermatological condition of the scalp. Generally, dandruff can be completely removed through wiping, and it should not recur repeatedly. Therefore, it is considered a regional disease of the skin, and it is best to take your child to the dermatology department of the hospital for a diagnosis. Timely diagnosis and active treatment can yield good results.
