Jul6

Who’s At Risk of this kind of skin disease:
Dandruff occurs in 15–20% of the population; seborrheic dermatitis (with redness and flaking) occurs in 3–5%. The problem affects all races, may be a bit worse in men, and starts after puberty (although babies have a version called cradle cap). Seborrheic dermatitis peaks around the age of 40 and then may improve. Severe seborrheic dermatitis is seen frequently in people with Parkinson disease, and other with central nervous system problems, and in those with HIV infection.

Signs and Symptoms of adults Suffer from seborrheic dermatitis:
The scalp is itchy and sheds white, oily skin flakes.
One or more of the following areas has patches of red, scaly skin: the scalp, hairline, forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, creases of the nose and ears, ear canals, beard areas, breastbone, midback, groin, or armpit.
In darker skin, some of the affected areas may look lighter in color.
Mild – only some flaking and redness in a few small areas.
Moderate – several areas affected with bothersome redness and itch.
Severe – large areas of redness, severe itch and unresponsive to self-care measures.
