What is the best remedy for bad smelling hair scalp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evaluation needed : You should be evaluated by a physician to see if you have a bacterial or fungal infection in the scalp. Also, conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis can have an odor if severe and left untreated for a while. Prescription shampoos and lotions may be able to help.
