What Is Seborrheic Dermatitis?
Seborrheic Dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects areas rich in oil glands — like the scalp, face, chest, and back.
It’s often associated with dandruff, itching, redness, and greasy scaling, and can worsen with stress, weather changes, or hormonal imbalances.
Commonly Affected Areas:
-
Scalp (causing dandruff and itching)
-
Eyebrows and sides of the nose
-
Behind the ears
-
Chest and upper back
-
Beard area (in men)
