Hello,
Dandruff and inflammatory skin condition called seborrheic
dermatitis are the most common causes of itchy
scalp. Seborrheic dermatitis can be the result of seasonal changes, fluctuating hormones,
stress or yeast infection on the skin. Sometimes, the symptoms can be due to side effects of certain medications that you might have taken or are taking.
Itchiness in the eyes, below the eyes or on face can be triggered by exposure to pollen, mould, dust mites, make-up or chemical cosmetics. The sensitiveness and pain can be due to irritation to the nerves or nerve endings. You are suggested to keep scalp clean. shampoo your hair with
Selsun shampoo daily or alternately.
Always apply hair oil( coconut oil, almond oil) to your hair, never leave it dry. Apply water based lotion or herbal lotion on the face and body. Take food rich in vitamin B6, B12. You can also take supplements to prevent
nerve damage. Stay well hydrated, avoid addictions if any. Get clinically examined by a
dermatologist, If you have developed
fungal infection, you will need an oral course of
anti-fungal medication.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
