Causes of Seborrheic Dermatitis

The cause of seborrheic dermatitis is lipophilic yeast-like fungus Pityrosporum Ovale, which inhabits the bodies of almost 90 percent of people. Under normal circumstances, when your immunity copes with the spores of this fungus, they are not active. The disease develops only under certain factors. The fungus feeds on secretion of your sebaceous glands. Seborrheic dermatitis most often develops on your scalp or face, due to a large number of sebaceous glands and hair follicles. In unfavorable conditions your body fails to monitor the growth of the fungus which triggers the development of seborrheic dermatitis and hair loss.

Any nervous system, immune or hormonal disorders can activate the fungus. Seborrheic dermatitis on scalp can appear after stress or excessive exercising. Among other causes of the disease could be substantial climate change, regardless of whether you have changed a warm climate to the cold, or vice versa.

Typical for dermatitis are pronounced inflammations in form of papules. They are clearly defined red foci covered with greasy scales. These lesions grow and gradually merge if the disease is not treated. Due to excessive peeling patient’s scalp is covered with dense scales glued together with sebum. If you remove them you will see bright pink inflamed skin surface, which is often painful. Severe itching, which accompanies seborrheic dermatitis in hair,
carries a risk of infection. The scales peel off and can be observed in your hair and on your clothing. The precursor of seborrheic dermatitis is dandruff. That is why if you have this cosmetic problem, and you cannot solve it by therapeutic methods, consult a doctor as dandruff may indicate increased activity of Pityrosporum Ovale. Don’t forget to ask your.

Doctor: “Does seborrheic dermatitis cause hair loss?” The answer will give you a good impetus to start treatment as soon as possible. Further symptoms are redness, as well as gradual formation of seborrheic plaques, which become bigger. The disease is also accompanied by increased hair loss from seborrheic dermatitis which stops only after you get rid of the problem. The good news is, if you have lost some of your hair due to this disease, after the treatment you can count on the full restoration of your hair without any hair transplant procedures.

Seborrheic Dermatitis Treatment

Successful treatment of seborrheic dermatitis in the first place implies the need for an integrated approach. Treatment should be directed not only to fight the clinical manifestations of the disease, but also to correct the problems with your body, which were the primary cause of dermatitis.

  • To begin with adjust your diet, consume hypoallergenic food;
  • Take sufficient amount of vitamins of A, B, C groups, as well as zinc and selenium;
  • At the same time begin to use topical antifungal agents. Consult a doctor to have the exact remedy prescribed. Usually doctors prescribe miconazole and nizoral;
  • If the flakes have formed quite a dense layer, it will prevent the active influence of the remedies. To overcome this barrier, use preapplications with ointments and oils;
  • During the treatment period apply only medical shampoos, containing keratolytic components, zinc and substances capable to eliminate excessive sebum production without overdrying your skin.

Remember that seborrheic dermatitis is one of the factors that leads to seborrheic dermatitis hair loss, that is why do not disregard appearance of dandruff because it may be the first warning of impending problems with hair.
