  • PageNo: 1017-1019
  • Abstract:
  • Dandruff, medically known as pityriasis capitis, is a common scalp condition that affects people across all age groups. Though not life-threatening, it can cause significant discomfort, social embarrassment, and psychological stress. While conventional treatments provide temporary relief, recurrence is common. Homoeopathy offers a holistic and individualized approach to treating dandruff, addressing the root cause and constitutional predisposition. This article explores dandruff from a medical and homoeopathic viewpoint, including its causes, pathophysiology, miasmatic background, repertorial approach, and effective remedies.
