hmm.

I typed this with a tear drop.

Your boy reminded me of my elder bro, we almost lost him to this.

The stuff was there till secondary school level if I could remember well. It was a painful experience for him, my mum shaved and shaved and apply all those prescriptions and other drugs too. Then the last one that almost took his life was when he was to take 16 injections, omo, It was really a sad experience. But we thank God he scaled through.

Pray for your boy and visit a good health center. Your boy is destined for greatness know that.

Good morning my people, I am writing you people at this delicate hour of 12:39am because my son's condition, it's getting worse by the day.

Dandruff wants to kill this beautiful boy, I know it's weird because we all know, myself included that dandruff doesn't kill, but watching myself lose a part of my son everyday.

He's been suffering from this condition for over 6yrs now, we've gone to the hospital and after buying and using all the prescribed drugs (Nizoral shampoo, selsun blue, head and shoulders, tea tree oil, miconazole cream, ketoconazole cream, terbinafine cream, fluconazole tablet, terbinafine tablet: almost killed my son, griseofulvin etc) nothing has changed, instead it's getting worse by day.

From complaining of headaches, to weakness (my son that was filled with energy and plays all the time now barely moves, he is always one place complaining of tiredness and pain), to joint pains, to confusion.

According to him, this dandruff has ate up his scalp so much that he can now taste his bathing soap on his tongue the moment he washes his head. We are now scared of washing and applying anything on his head because he will complain of tasting whatever we put on his head in his mouth and he will start having reactions. It's almost as if the skin on his scalp no longer protects him from outside soaps and other ingredients.

The moment he washes his head, his lips and tongue will swell up and he will start having reactions. My once active and lovely boy is now a shadow of himself. He's refusing to play, always complaining of tiredness and pains.

Pls help me my people, I don't know what to do anymore. I've tried every hospital and everything, I've done all I know, and now I'm watching my son deteriorate gradually before my very eyes without having a clue what to do, pls I beg you, help him, help me.

You call this Dandruff? Oga this is not Dandruff. You have to go local.

Irrespective of whatever has been recommended or you wish to try, STOP everything COLD WATER on his body. Warm/hot water only. This will control the reactions on his him while the medications work.

Don't forget to come back to Nairaland to share your testimony
Re: Please Help, My Son Has Dandruff For Over 8years Now by Segzy19: 2:28pm On Apr 19, 2023
Take him to see a specialist. Not a general practitioner.... He needs to see a dermatologist and may also need to be placed on meds like prednisolone, hydrocortisone along with some other drugs....

Do not self-medicate him again....Go see a specialist! May God heal him

OP, please go to the local people selling agbo ask for Imi Ojo ( sulphur)

Grind it and mix it with any ointment ( use can try Shea butter).

Rub it on his head and wash it after 1hr.

That's the quickest way to deal with dandruff.

All of you saying go to hospital must be very mad and senseless. angry angry
This woman here clearly stated that she has gone to the hospital severally without any improvement yet you want her to continue going to the hospital?
Is it not a fool that will continue to do the same thing and expect a different result?

Our hospitals don't have any solution to many illnesses. The hospitals are just a place you waste your money, time in the midst of I'll mannered people called doctors, consultants, specialists and nurses.

I lost my dad recently, all the money , all the drugs , the scans, tests, consultants and specialists could not save his life or even make him get better after spending millions upon millions for 5 years. His condition only deteriorated until we lost him last month.

Yes, because if his your son, you will not allow the head to get to this level.

Either you are careless or the boy is not your son.

What your son has is not dandruff, He has a problem with his immune system, He has scalp psoriasis which is not curable but manageable (you can greatly reduce the frequency of flares).

Visit a dermatologist, they'll probably prescribe corticosteroids (prednisolone) and a prescription shampoo containing salicylic acid and coal tar.

Go and get Sulphur, you can get it from those Iya alagbo.

Grind it and make it smooth, then get Cacatin cream and mix it together.

Apply it on his head morning and night.

Get any antiseptic soap and also mix the sulphur with it, let him use it morning and night.

In 3 to 7 days you will testify

This is no dandruff. Seek medical help in a teaching hospital or specialist hospital. Either of them is well equipped with experienced Drs who can help.

ChybuzzDD:


The plaques and scales look more like those of Scalp Psoriasis and not Dandruff.

See a Dermatologist for the accurate diagnosis and treatment, although psoriasis is difficult to treat.
But getting the right diagnosis is the first step in the right direction.

You can't treat Scalp Psoriasis with those anti-fungal medications you listed above.





Same thing I said. It's surely psoriasis. It cannot be treated, but can be managed.
