Potential causes of scalp itching

itchy scalp can be explained by a multitude of factors, ranging from the most trivial to the most serious. Often, they result from hygiene problems, such as washing too frequently or not frequently enough, but also from common conditions, such as a fungal infection (ringworm) or the presence of parasites (lice).

 

However, deeper dermatological causes, such as inflammatory diseases, can also be at the origin, including:

• Seborrheic dermatitis is caused by the proliferation of Malassezia, a yeast naturally present on the skin and which develops in cases of excess sebum. 
• Psoriasis is caused by rapid renewal of epidermal cells and is caused by a disruption of the immune system.

Other health concerns may be causing itchy scalp, such as eczema (or atopic dermatitis) or excessive dryness of the superficial layers of the skin.

 

Furthermore, allergies to certain foods, medications, or cosmetic products can cause itchy scalp skin. Hair health specialists also cite causes such as psychological issues (stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, etc.), hormonal imbalances and fluctuations, and intolerance to certain serious medical treatments.
