Scalp Itch

My scalp is itching like crazy since yesterday, mostly in the back side of my head. I don’t have any history of this happening in the past. Don’t know whats causing it, not yet anyway.

Any home remedies?

Re: Scalp Itch

i have that too, and i'v found that mixing a capfull of dettol in a pint of water and applying that solution to the area helps. You need to leave it on for about 10 minutes. I beleive it says on the back of the bottle.

Re: Scalp Itch

Using an oil shud help (almond and olive ones r good)…i’ve heard the antiseptic one (dettol, mouthwash etc.) with water also…is it accompanied with dandruff? If so, try yoghurt it’s very soothing and maybe lemon juice (check to see it doesn’t burn u though) :blush:

Have you ruled out lice?

Re: Scalp Itch

apply fresh yogurt to ure scalp and rinse it of after 30 mins. It will reduce kharish 4 sure.

Re: Scalp Itch

Coopex antilice lotion might be the best solution :)

Re: Scalp Itch

coopex might cause further irritation and dandruff.... have u ruled lice out yet?

Re: Scalp Itch

stop eating spicy food...start putting almond oil in ur hair daily and it will go away in a week time

Re: Scalp Itch

I was first just trying to wait and see if it goes away on its own but it hasn't. I have used yogurt so far with no effect. How do you rule out lice? by trying some lice medicine? I don't have white stuff in my hair.

Re: Scalp Itch

use t-gel shampoo

and lessen the heat of your shower-i know that sounds crazy, but my khala heard it from her doctor and recommended it to me-and i think it's working...
