  • Seborrhoeic Dermatitis: Everything You Need To KnowSeborrheic Dermatitis is a common, long-term skin disorder that is similar to eczema or an allergic reaction. It can appear on the body as well as the scalp, and is marked by red, itchy scaly patches and stubborn dandruff. The areas of the skin that are rich in oil-producing glands, such as the face, chest, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids, and areas where the skin folds, are mostly affected.This condition is most common among individuals around the age of 50 and during puberty. It is also common among infants less than 3 years old, where it often affects the scalp, known as cradle cap. Seborrheic Dermatitis is more common in men than in women and in people with oily skin. It is important to note that it is not contagious.The exact cause of Seborrheic Dermatitis is unknown, but current theories suggest that it may be due to the irregular response of the immune system, an inflammatory reaction to a fungus called Malassezia found in the oil secretion of the skin, issues with the nervous system, and a lack of specific nutrients. Some factors that can increase the risk of developing this condition include a weakened immune system, alcoholism, certain medications, Parkinson's disease, depression, and recovery from a stressful condition such as a stroke or heart attack.Symptoms of Seborrheic Dermatitis may include soreness, itching, yellowish, white, or gray flakes on the skin of the scalp, eyebrows, beard, behind the ears, groins, armpits, or under the breast, patchy scaling on the scalp, and red, greasy skin covered with flaky white or yellow scales. Psychological stress, fatigue, sleep deprivation, change of season, and decreased general health can aggravate the condition.The diagnosis of Seborrheic Dermatitis is made by examining the skin.
