Seborrheic Dermatitis

Seborrheic Dermatitis

Seborrheic dermatitis, also known as cradle cap when it affects infants, is a common skin condition characterized by a red, itchy rash, usually on the scalp. It is normally a lifelong condition, with patients experiencing occasional flare-ups.

Symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis are similar to those of other skin conditions, such as psoriasis or eczema. It causes dandruff and a red, itchy rash on the scalp, although it may also appear on other parts of the body, notably the face and groin.

The precise cause of seborrheic dermatitis is unknown, but it may be linked to stress, genetic factors, environmental factors (such as cold, dry weather), a yeast on the skin, or certain neurological and psychiatric medical conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease or depression.

Seborrheic dermatitis may clear up without treatment or with over-the-counter shampoos, but medication is also available to manage the symptoms. Drug classes commonly prescribed to treat seborrheic dermatitis are systemic corticosteroids, plain, plain topical corticosteroids, topical scalp antifungals, topical dermatological antifungals, emollients and protectants, and topical rosacea agents.
