Managing this dermatological condition can be tough, but with the right shampoo, you can make a huge difference. Below, you’ll find the best shampoos for seborrheic dermatitis available at Watsons.
What is Seborrheic Dermatitis?
Seborrheic dermatitis is a common dermatological condition that mainly affects your scalp, characterized by symptoms including
- Itchiness
- Scaly patches
- Inflamed skin
- Stubborn dandruff
This chronic inflammatory condition can occur in other areas of your body, like upper back and chest, behind the ears and areas with the most sebaceous gland activity.
The signs and symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis tend to flare with stress, fatigue, or a change of season. You should see a dermatologist if your symptoms get worse or you are so uncomfortable that you’re losing sleep.
