Seborrheic Dermatitis

Seborrheic dermatitis is a papulosquamous disorder. Distribution follows the oily and hair-bearing areas of the head and the neck, such as the scalp, the forehead, the eyebrows, eye lashes, the nasolabial folds, the beard and the postauricular skin. The severity varies from mild dandruff to exfoliative erythroderma. Skin involvement responds to ketoconazole or ciclopirox creams and gels. Corticosteroid creams, lotions or solutions can be used for acute flares. Systemic Ketoconazole or fluconazole may help if seborrheic dermatitis is severe or unresponsive.
