An Expert’s Guide To Proper Seborrheic Dermatitis Treatment

When it comes to skin conditions, the consensus is to deal with them immediately so as to limit their spread. Your scalp is skin as well, and while the same rules applied to it as do to your skin, more often than not, people ignore scalp issues entirely. This is especially harmful in cases that are prone to getting worse if left untreated. Seborrheic dermatitis, or in simpler terms dandruff, is one such condition. But how can dandruff cause too many issues for you? That is because seborrheic dermatitis is a condition where dandruff becomes a lot severe for some people. This is accompanied by a lot of inflammation, itching and scaly skin lesions appearing on the scalp. The condition also leads to oozing liquid or blood, developing a yellowish crust on the scalp. With flakiness so severe, it is necessary to get the correct diagnosis and treat it properly. We asked our in-house expert, Dr. Monisha Aravind, about the right seborrheic dermatitis treatment and here's everything you should know.
