Symptoms of Seborrheic Dermatitis
You may have seborrheic dermatitis if you have a scalp that is scaly, itchy, red and produces stubborn dandruff or flakey skin. Infants often experience this skin disorder, known as “cradle cap”. Although seborrheic dermatitis is most commonly found on the scalp, it can also occur on the face, upper chest and back or areas where the skin is rich in oil glands. Dr. Weisman has years of experience and expertise in successfully treating the symptoms of chronic seborrheic dermatitis and preventing its recurrence. If you have failed to control this unwanted skin disorder with other treatments, let us help you at Medical Dermatology Specialists today.
What Causes Seborrheic Dermatitis?
Although there is no known cause of seborrheic dermatitis, there are some common factors that play a role in triggering flare-ups. A stressful lifestyle and the winter season tend to make seborrheic dermatitis worsen along with a specific fungus that grows naturally in the skin’s oily secretions called malassezia. There are also other diseases such as Parkinson’s and HIV/AIDS that tend to cause seborrheic dermatitis as well. Dr. Weisman will work hard to find the cause of your specific seborrheic dermatitis condition and offer the most effective treatment plan to give you the long-term solutions you deserve.
