Fungal infection of the scalp, or tinea capitis, is more common in children but can occur at any age. Itching, hair loss, red patches on the scalp, and scaling are its main symptoms. It spreads through damp hair or poor hygiene. Antifungal shampoos alone bring temporary relief, but the infection recurs. In homeopathy, treatment is given with consideration of the overall constitution.
