Dandruff is mainly fungal in nature.

Anti dandruff shampoo can help you

You can use noskurff lotion in night and sleep.

In day you can use sebowash shampoo to wash your hair.

Also take antihistamine tablet like cetrizine

This will give you relief.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
