Does seborrheic dermatitis make the skin oily? |
i was recently diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis on my face and in the past week or so my forehead has become very oily. i've never really had oily skin until now. is this part of seb derm? anything i can do about it? Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is inflammation of skin with a high density of sebaceous glands (face, scalp, upper trunk). The cause is unknown, but Pityrosporum ovale, a normal skin organism, plays some role. SD occurs with increased frequency in patients with HIV and in those with certain neurologic diseases. Seborrheic dermatitis causes occasional pruritus, dandruff, and yellow, greasy scaling along the hairline and on the face. Diagnosis is clinical. Treatment is tar or other medicated shampoo and topical corticosteroids and antifungals. |

However, we are making great strides towards understanding the immune system abnormalities that cause atopic dermatitis. This understanding ... It is caused by contact with minute hairs near the spines of cacti....try shaving the affected area and a vinegar bath....and don't touch them again. ...The basic active ingredient in Proactiv is benzoyl peroxide. It's not a particularly strong concentration, but it still can dry out your skin and some people are allergic to it. I would really... Just a "heads up" knowledge piece.
