Trichologists told what affects the appearance of dandruff and how to deal with it

And it's not about hair care.

Dandruff is a common disease in both sexes. According to trichologists, every fourth person has encountered it at least once, Ukr.Media informs.

Most people believe that this problem is caused by improperly selected home care. But not everyone knows that the appearance of dandruff can be a symptom of a skin disease or a signal of a malfunction of internal organs, doctors said.

Thus, the appearance of dandruff can signal seborrheic dermatitis, neurodermatitis and psoriasis. In addition, trichologists added, the disease is observed due to a lack of vitamins A and group B, as well as a decrease in general immunity and nervous tension.

In addition, the cause may be hidden in the gastrointestinal tract, dermatologists added. It is about non-compliance with the diet, abuse of fast food, sweet, carbonated drinks, uncontrolled use of drugs, violation of intestinal microflora, as well as inflammatory diseases of the intestine and stomach.
