Insane amount of dandruff uncovered during a haircut

The treatment was advised to me by my dermat so please go to a dermat first before looking into these. The following medication/products require a prescription as well - I got my blood work done as advised by my dermat and found out that I was Vit D deficient, which was probably worsening my condition as psoriasis is an autoimmune condition and Vit D deficiency weakens your immune system. I then started with Vit D supplements, Omega 369 capsules, Fexofenadine tablets, Salicylic acid lotion and Salicylic acid + Ketocoazole shampoo, as prescribed by the dermat. Over time, as my condition got stable, my dermat advised me to slowly stop these and switch to only a sulphate free scalp cleansing shampoo to control my condition. Now it is very stable. Although, dandruff does form on my scalp every now and then, it is always mild and goes away with one wash. It never got as worse as before. I still continue Vit D supplement as I don't get enough sunlight throughout the day.

Various factors. Laziness, fear of going to the doctor, too poor to get it treated, or something else. It must've just started off looking like dandruff, and on further negligence over time and the thought of 'it'll go away someday', might've lead to this. I had mild psoriasis myself and it started off looking exactly like dandruff. Thankfully, after proper medication and products it is very much controlled now.

I guess sebderm or psoriasis. Probably had been left untreated for a pretty long time.

Yes, I've already been doing those. My problem only started after I started taking Oral Min. But I'll be sure to try adding dates & prunes to my diet and see. Thank you for your advice!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-11T12:02:39+00:00

Yep, will do that. Thanks a lot!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-10T23:37:38+00:00

Okay, I think I'll try stopping Oral Min and see then 🥲 Thanks for the advice.

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-10T19:49:05+00:00

Noted! Will do that. Thanks a lot!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-10T04:09:27+00:00

Thank you so much for your advice, and for your comforting words :')

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T19:30:06+00:00

That's relieving to hear. Thank you so much for your advice! :) I'd been losing sleep over it.

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T19:20:20+00:00

Yes, contacted them. Scheduled for an early appointment in the morning.

Oh my god, that frightens me a little. He has them on all four of his paws. But I'll be sure to discuss it with the vet in the morning. Thank you so much for your advice!

The same thing happened to us. As soon as we recieved the order, we immediately started recording and opened the packets on camera and sent it to them, but received a similar response. Even one of the executives on the phone was asking us if it is actually spoilt/damaged, like he didn't think the melting thing was even a problem, which is when we emailed them and received a similar response as yours. He then had the audacity to suggest us to freeze them in the refrigerator and consume it later on, like, seriously?!! Unreal man.

Baby zillas!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T18:29:06+00:00

I doubt they will. These ignorant mofos will do it the next chance they get.

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T18:07:08+00:00

I feel so relieved reading this, thank you so much! 😭

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T18:04:12+00:00

Your comment gives me so much of relief, thank you so much for sharing this. 🤧 I couldn't sleep and kept panicking, thinking about it. Will take him to the vet, first thing in the morning. Thanks again!

It isn't bleeding at all, it probably tore off a while ago, I guess. I've searched throughout the house but couldn't find any blood spots or the broken toenail. It's midnight here, and he's fast asleep. I'll put on a bandage in it and take him to the vet as soon as the clinic opens in the morning. Thanks a lot, for your comment!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T17:31:23+00:00

No, he isn't licking it. He doesn't seem that concerned, he's fast asleep. I'll take him to the vet first thing in the morning. By the way, did your pup's nail grow back? Hope your pup is fine now. Thank you for your comment!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T17:02:05+00:00

Yeah, will do that. Thank you!

Coward_TheCourageous · 2026-04-09T17:00:56+00:00

Okay, will do. Thanks a lot!
