Which shampoo is best for dandruff?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Shampoo which contain active ingredients like pyrithione ,zinc, selenium sulfide, ketoconazole, salicylic acid, and coal tar can work to reduce dandruff. since there are many underlying reasons(as simple as stress) it is better to take an expert opinion first before using OTC shampoos

I've been dealing with this issue where about a year ago, I noticed two small dark red blisters on the glans of my penis. They weren't painful and I barely noticed them at first, but now it's turned into something like a small wound that's slightly itchy and red. Ive tried a few things, but nothing seems to help. I'm really worried about why it hasn't healed yet, so could you help me figure out whats going on?

I've noticed that the hairs on my eyebrows and upper lip are starting to turn white. I've been dealing with grey hair for the past 34 years, and it just seems to be getting worse as time goes on. Is there any way to stop my eyebrow hairs from going white too?

Greying of hair is a normal aging process which starts around 30 as the melanocytes activity of the body slows down and gradually the melanin production in hair stops. If it is happening before this age, it is called premature greying. This can be genetic and also due to deficiency of essential vitamins and minerals. You can delay the process of greying of hair by some lifestyle modifications. Take adequate sleep and drink lots of water, eat lots of fruits and green leafy vegetables. Few tablets can also be prescribed for the same. there is also one lotion which is supposed to work.
