Inflammation vs. Dandruff

Know The Difference

Many people treat inflammation like dandruff—with harsh, drying products that make the problem worse. Understanding the difference is crucial for proper scalp care.

1.Dandruff

Caused by yeast overgrowth. Flakes are oily, yellowish. Responds to antifungal treatments.

2.Dry Scalp

Caused by lack of moisture. Flakes are small, white, dry. Responds to hydration and gentle products.

3.Inflammation

Caused by trauma, irritation, or reaction. Red, tender, sensitive scalp. Requires soothing, healing approach.

4.Misdiagnosis Danger

Treating inflammation with dandruff products adds more irritation. Many ‘dandruff’ sufferers actually have inflamed scalps from rubber tools.
