How to treat Eczema on Scalp


Here are some general tips on managing scalp eczema. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Here are some suggestions:


1. Medicated Shampoos: Use over-the-counter or prescription medicated shampoos that contain ingredients like coal tar, salicylic acid, or ketoconazole.


2. Gentle Shampoo: Choose a mild, fragrance-free shampoo that is suitable for sensitive skin.


3. Avoid Irritants: Minimize exposure to hair products with harsh chemicals, such as hair dyes and styling products.


4. Moisturize: Apply a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer to your scalp to keep it hydrated.


5. Cool Water: Wash your hair with lukewarm or cool water, as hot water can worsen eczema.


6. Avoid Scratching: Try not to scratch your scalp to prevent further irritation and infection.


7. Avoid Triggers: Identify and avoid triggers that worsen your eczema, such as stress or certain foods.


8. Prescription Medications: Your doctor may prescribe topical steroids, calcineurin inhibitors, or other medications to manage eczema.


9. Phototherapy: In some cases, light therapy (phototherapy) can be recommended by a dermatologist.


10. Lifestyle Changes: A healthy diet, stress management, and good hygiene can also help manage scalp eczema.


Remember to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and treatment options.
