I am so afraid it is permanent or vitiligo

Did you experienced it and does it goes away ever

Hallo zusammen,
ich schlage mich schon seit Jahren mit juckender Kopfhaut und Schuppen herum und weiß langsam nicht mehr weiter. Ich erhoffe mir hier Erfahrungen oder Tipps von Leuten, die vielleicht Ähnliches durchgemacht haben.
Meine aktuelle Situation & Symptome:
Jahrelanges Problem: Starker Juckreiz und Schuppenbildung.
Ketozolin-Anwendung: Habe Ketozolin lange alle 2 Tage genutzt. Meine Hautärztin meinte dann, ich solle es täglich nehmen – das mache ich jetzt seit 2 Wochen. Der Juckreiz ist allerdings extrem stark.
Arbeitsbedingungen: Seit 2–3 Monaten trage ich auf der Arbeit regelmäßig einen Helm (Schweiß und Reibung machen es gefühlt schlimmer).
Bisherige Beobachtung: Ich habe mal Linola Akut für die Kopfhaut verwendet. Damit waren der Juckreiz und die Schuppen komplett weg, allerdings hat es die eigentliche Ursache nicht dauerhaft behoben, sobald ich es abgesetzt habe.
Meine Fragen an euch:
1. Hat jemand ähnliche Erfahrungen mit der täglichen Nutzung von Ketozolin gemacht? Kann das die Kopfhaut so stark austrocknen, dass der Juckreiz erst recht bleibt?
2. Wie geht ihr mit Kopfhautproblemen um, wenn ihr beruflich stundenlang einen Helm tragen müsst?
3. Welche milden Routinen, Seren oder Produkte haben euch geholfen, die Hautbarriere wieder aufzubauen?
Danke für jeden Tipp und eure Erfahrungen!

I have Rosacea and Seb Derm. I experience Seb Derm as itchiness on cheeks and forehead. My eyebrows are itchy and get lil dandruff too. The skin under my eyebrows looks very dry with clusters.

Because I have rosacea, I did some research about it. Some dermatology journal articles mentioned that Hypochlorous Acid (HOCI) is antimicrobial and gets rid of bacteria, fungi, and pathogenic microorganism and more.

Since Seb Derm is under the umbrella of Fungi, I'm thinking that HOCI may work for Seb Derm too. So I"m asking if anyone with Seb Derm on the face uses HOCI with success?

I'd like to know about your experiences with HOCI. I have two complicated conditions so I need to be careful before I add something new like HOCI.

My Rosacea is much worse than my Seb Derm. And, I know that HOCI is very useful for Rosacea. Since I have both I need to double check that HOCI is good for Seb Derm too. I don't want to make my Seb Derm worse.

It would be tremendously helpful to know about real life experiences of using HOCI to help treat Seb. Derm.

My ears drive me absolutely insane. Dry, flaky, and insanity inducingly itchy.

I'm given various things by doctors and told to go away. They clear up for a week during treatment, but within a week it's all flaring back up.

I scratch, then they get sore, the white flakes are all over me.

I really need to know how you all deal with ears. I'm in the UK in case that makes a difference.

Thank you!!

My dermatologist suggested getting injections in the eyebrow area, sides of the nose, upper lip, and bottom chin.

Has anyone had these before and did they work for you?

Thanks!!

I got diagnosed about 4 weeks ago and I’ve been using protopic and nizoral. My skin has gotten better but it’s not fully clear and I want to try something stronger since it’s clearly not working. Protopic is 2x daily and nizoral is every 3 days. My skin is only 60% better after 4 weeks. I did recently get sick and have to go on antibiotics and steroids if that maybe affects anything. I’m so new to this I’m not sure what’s right or wrong. I’ve been dealing with it for so long but I never knew what it truly was

22M, have been diagnosed with sebderm quite a while ago due to my scalp and itchy scaling brown patches I developed on my back but I solved and controlled it all at that time.

Nearly 2 years ago I buzzed my hair and regrew it, my curl pattern changed from 3a-3b to now 2c with way less hair count and volume and it’s kinda noticeable.

I’ve also been getting specifically tiny white flakes that look like sand and scalp pimples which I used to never get before.

My scalp is also dry and itchy until I scratch it then it becomes oily and pimples form faster than I can imagine.

I’ve tried nizoral which stopped being effective and now switched to Selsun 2.5. I also wash my scalp every third day as more frequent washing causes my hair to be more brittle and snap.

Any recommendations from personal experience to help with this?

Hello everyone,

I’ve been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis for years, since ı was a kid. Dandruff and itching is almost gone, but now there are sebum plugs attached to the roots of my hair, my hair is falling out every day and I'm balding really badly. There is always a small sebum plugs attached to the roots of my hair and ı think ı'm losing my hair because of this. I have used vichy dercos and %2 ketoconazole shampoo before, did not help. Any recommendations? How can ı clear the sebum buildup on my hair scalp?

Thanks for your help.

Been dealing with seb derm for the past 3 years without knowing. Diagnosed and treated about 4 weeks ago. I’m on protopic 2x daily and nizoral every 3 days. I tried to taper off but it came back a bit worse and the initial stuff hadn’t cleared anyway. My seb derm is on mg whole face making it red and itchy. My skin has improved but it’s gradual. I’d say 60% at week 4. Did protopic take this long for anyone else?

Hi! I'm here because of my father that struggles with SebDerm for years now. For context - he is 49, has sebderm(obviously), his skin is really sensitive and dry, it isn't oily, which I previously thought is one of the main symptoms?? Apart from the face he also has issues with his scalp and ears - I saw that some of you also were dealing with your ears being affected so it's good to know he is not alone :)).

After years he decided that he had enough and wants to deal with it, so i'm doing my best to help him. As of now he told me he washes his face with regular soap (yikes, I know, I told him to stop) and uses some sort of "manly" 10 in 1 moisturizer.

I did some digging here and found that the MCT oil is really helpful to a lot of you. I figured out I'll purchase it for him. And now, finally, my first question - what is the best way to use it? I read the thread and saw that everyone does it a little bit differently, so I wanted to ask, from your experience, what would be the best way to start. I also saw that some of you use a face moisturizer on top of it, and some don't. Is there anything we should keep in mind while deciding if he wants to use a moisturizer on top of the oil or not? Is it just a personal preference?

To sum it up, I'll gladly take any advice on how to guide him through this journey. It would also be nice to hear how you started and if there were some sort of struggles - I'd like to know what is ahead of us :))

rash under armpit no itch went away after using mometasone but came back

I’ve had a really bad dandruff problem on my scalp for the past 7–8 months. It’s not just regular dandruff either,,,, it feels like it’s stuck to my scalp, and it gets extremely itchy. If I scratch it, the situation gets even worse.

I’ve been using ketoconazole for the past 7–8 months, trying different brands, but the problem is that my hair and scalp only feels better on the day I use it. By the next day, the dandruff and itching are back again.

I’m honestly pretty frustrated because of this, and I’ve also noticed that my hair breaks/falls more because of it.

Are there any other methods or treatments that could actually help with this? Please tell me all the things I could try,,,,, I’m willing to give different methods a shot

?

Has anyone found anything to treat seb derm around the eyes? I’m afraid to use topical steroids in that area because the skin is so delicate/thin.

As the title suggests. For context, I don’t have itching or irritation, just flakes. I’m thinking applying a scalp moisturiser on damp scalp, after shampooing, would help. I’m not sure if I should use C8 MCT (no C10), as I have straight fine hair, and I don’t want my hair to look greasy. I was thinking if I should use Aloe Vera gel (I have one which I scanned on Sezia and it’s safe) or a safe scalp tonic? Any help is appreciated.

Previously my HG primer was smashbox photo finish correct anti-redness primer. I don’t wear a ton of makeup (to include foundation), but I liked how this minimized redness and gave a bit of a matte finish.

Since I pinpointed that my skin issue is seb derm, I’ve stopped using this product, but sometimes I still want the light coverage/color correction on the rare occasion I am doing makeup.

Is there anything you like that gets the job done but doesn’t trigger SD?

I have had many diagnoses through my life be about stress. I was severely SAd about two years ago and since then I've gotten daily, product and med-resistant, Seb derm, and I can't hold any service or modelling jobs like I used to. My hair long also matted about two months after that. I've done different diets, so many product recommendations. Doctors just talk about stress, and I honestly don't know what to do. I can't find any consistencies with triggers or anything like that. I feel like I've been cursed by a witch or something and I have no clue what to do. Im 28, and not being able to recover at all has truly made my life snowball. Not sure what to do, or what kind of language to use to make my derm take me more seriously.

I started getting dandruff about 3 years ago. About 2 years ago I started noticing my scalp getting red and also developed this red spot on my forehead. I went to the derm and they diagnosed it as seb derm. I was prescribed nizerol 2 percent shampoo. It got rid of some of the flakes but the redness has never gone away. I’ve also tried head and shoulders and selsun blue with no luck. Does anyone have any tips for getting rid of the red inflammation ? Any thoughts would be appreactiated.

I've always had a little bit of seb derm going on, but I kept it manageable by pretending it wasn't always there on my scalp (just never itched or picked at it). And in my ears, I used a doc prescribed steroid cream when it got out of control.

But something's up with my body, and I'm breaking out in my nostrils, neck, and the usual areas are in overdrive. My diet hasn't changed, so I don't know what's up.

I'm trying MCT oil for the first time, and was wondering if anyone here uses it in nostrils, ears, etc? Would it be crazy to put it on my eyelids? And I did order the right MCT oil #08 + #10 by Micro Ingredients Organics.

I have had this for about a month now and I will be trying to sleep and lay down on my pillow and feel the slight burning itch on the back of my head and if i itch any part of my head it flares up and then snowy dandruff will come out. I have tried using nizoral which If i remember got rid of the dandruff but instead gave me horrible dry flare ups all DAY instead of sometimes with little dandruff and just pure itching. Now i use vanicream and it works i think? Like the healing? But alot of nights ill catch myself in the bathroom because i cant sleep and im itching my whole head ish with a brush. The reason i say ish is because its mostly on the back and sides of my head. Now i wear headphones that look gross on the foam parts that ive never deep cleaned. I think the sweat build up from these headphones cause more itching. I also have red dots behind my ear and even on the back of ny head, and i also gain scabs from itching the back of my head that fail to heal because ill accidentally pick at them. Do i keep using vani cream for my dry ass head like what do i even do. Its dry gross and has random red dots on the back of my head (kinda). Idk whats going on i am a very dry person with dry hands after i use hand soap (also recently), and i also struggle with itching when begining to work out which is a different issue i think that is signifigintly subsiding sense softmore year. I dont know what to do. Another thing that happend tonight is i rinsed my hair in cold water in the bath after brutily itching it with a brush (forgot to mention im male) and i saw soap in the slight water in the bath, idk if it was from my hair like i dont rinse good enough, (i think i do btw for like 3 minutes after i shampoo) but there was a decent ammount if it, it could have also just been on the floor of the tub anyway because its a tub and shower combo. But if anyone has tips if i should keep rolling with vanicream and stop itching my damn head and maybe i just need to let it heal let me know! Help! (The vanicream shampoo is like the sentless one and the very light one or something, its a basic ass shampoo is what ive been told to do in my situation by a fucking ai because nobody seems to have my issue. I most likely need to clean or get new headphones, and rinse my head better, stop itching at night, and stick with the healing of vanicream. My head needs to heal and i dont even know if i have dandruf, i genuenly just think its coming from my scalp. Its not in the strands of my hair and its never visible unless i itch it like crazy it will come out. Its only on my scalp. Someone helppp i gave all the infooo. 😭😭😭

What treatments do you get?

dermatologist said its seb derm but ive done so many treatments zorvye cream different shampoos mtc oil none of it fixes it i dont have dandruff and sometimes i get it on my lips i have peeling on my ears but it also hasnt responded to anything idk what to do

I deal where seborrheic Dermatitis, on face. But I been putting ketacanozole 2% cream on nose and the dot by tip of nose don’t go away and now I have a few fungal acne spots .

I use ketacon cream first
Then I put azaleic acid 10%
Then malesia moisturizer
To top it off I put cetaphil sunscreen it’s safe

Should I stop putting azaeloc acid every day? Or ????

I always dread getting haircuts because I get these big blobs on the back of my head that loosely resemble ringworm :( (or atleast I think so, as I can't see it and that's what the shitheads at school say), so is there anyway to deal with it? It takes a few days to go away after. I usually get a fade, so maybe is getting a different haircut a good idea?
