Seborrheic Dermatitis
What is
Seborrheic Dermatitis?
Seborrheic Dermatitis is a common chronic skin condition that primarily affects areas rich in oil-producing glands, such as the scalp, face, and upper chest. It is characterized by redness, flaking, and itching, often leading to discomfort and self-consciousness. Scalp Seborrheic Dermatitis is particularly common, resulting in dandruff-like flakes and persistent irritation.
Symptoms of
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Recognizing the signs of Seborrheic Dermatitis early can help manage the condition more effectively. Seborrheic Dermatitis symptoms can vary from mild to severe and typically include:
- Red, inflamed skin patches.
- Itching and burning sensations.
- White or yellowish scales that peel off.
- Greasy or oily appearance of affected areas.
- Flare-ups triggered by stress, hormonal changes, or weather conditions.
Types of
Seborrheic Dermatitis
Understanding the different types of Seborrheic Dermatitis helps in tailoring the right Seborrheic Dermatitis treatment for each individual. There are several types of Seborrheic Dermatitis, which can affect different parts of the body:
- Scalp Seborrheic Dermatitis
Often mistaken for dandruff, it causes persistent flakes and itchiness.
- Facial Seborrheic Dermatitis
Affects areas around the nose, eyebrows, and behind the ears.
- Body Seborrheic Dermatitis
Can appear on the chest, back, and folds of the skin
What Causes
Seborrheic Dermatitis?
Identifying Seborrheic Dermatitis causes allows for better management and prevention of flare-ups. The exact causes of Seborrheic Dermatitis are not fully understood, but several factors contribute to its development, including:
- Overgrowth of a yeast called Malassezia on the skin.
- Excess oil production leading to clogged pores.
- Seasonal changes and cold weather.
- Stress and hormonal fluctuations.
- Genetic predisposition.
