Go to any federal hospital or federal or state teaching hospital near you and ask for the resident dermatologist there, explain the condition as an acute severe dandruff and let them follow up with it from there

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.

Since you have tried the hospital and no positive change, obviously this is a spiritual case. Dandruff doesn't get this bad.
Please take him to Winners Chapel to see a pastor , with regular use of anointing oil and taking communion whatever it is will let go of him

Visit a dermatologist.
In the meantime, buy a personal clipper amd personal disinfectants. He must stop using public hair clip at the barber's henceforth.

My cousin head finish that year catch one head scalp infection similar to this, from the barber's barbing saloon shop. They used the clip for haircut on a previous customer with the infection and whether barber no disinfect wella o, dunno.
My cousin head picked the infection . E head scatter finish. 2years plus wewere still treating.

Re: Please Help, My Son Has Dandruff For Over 8years Now by Felix6: 1:40pm On Apr 19, 2023
This looks more cancerous than dandruff. Visiting a good hospital regardless of cost is recommended. Plus It was neglected and allowed to fester at earliest stage. Hope you get a good news from a qualified practitioner, and not these jokes of pure honey and Dangote sugar suggestions.

It happened to me and it disappeared with age. So, as your kid grows, that thing will go away.

You can try herbal remedy like osan wewe (those small oranges that never get big). It's a very strong remedy.

Go to people that sells herbs they will recommend herbs for him.

I could remember a medical doctor then who has a severe tooth ache, like very severe one for years. He used different kind of drugs ran test did everything, the pain still persist and even got worse. Yoruba do call that tooth ache "akokoro"

It even got to a stage that he couldn't eat again properly, cos the mouth was swollen, so is father told one of his friends, and the friend recommended an "agbo" (herbs) he took it within three days, the tooth ache disappear

Get herbs for him, it will work. I honestly felt pity for the boy almost crying seeing his head. I understand your pain madam, it is well with him

u are the one that wants to kill him not dandruff. we all know dandruff is an external issue caused by dry scalp and skin so why are u giving him all manners of tablets abd drugs to consume?

creating more problems from a lesser problems or don't u know drugs have side effects? and for a kid it can be worse? who prescribed such drugs to ur kid because of simple dandruff?
unless what ur calling dandruff is something else like a more serious skin infection because dandruff is not that serious.

for sm1 to taste his soap on his tongue means his scalp is open or soar and hyper sensitive. The skin on the scalp needs to heal.

u also don't put very corrosive creams on the scalp all at once without giving it time to restore itself bt I know u will cos u are too in a hurry and very desperate.
