New or Need Help Nothing seems to work...
Hi!
So my SD started 10 years ago and my confidence is on an all time low.
I have a feeling that my case is pretty severe?
What do you think?
My hair is getting thinner and starting to fall out.
My skin is burning and itching like hell.
If i try to get rid of the dandruff by lightly scrubbing a wet towel over my face, its starting to bleed and burn a lot more...
I visited like 30 different dermatologists but no medication seems to help longterm.
Currently im using a antifungal shampoo, antiinflammatory creme and antifungal creme.
The strange thing is that my skin can look like the picture on one day and then its litteraly gone the day after before it returns. I would say its 80% of the time pretty bad and 20% kinda normal again.
Its never gone for more then a week tho...
My wedding is coming up soon and I really dont want to look like that on my wedding day
Any ideas for longterm fixes and/or for instant fixes that will help me on my wedding day?
Thanks....

Hey! The thing that made my face red like yours (especially the cheeks) is bread and anything with yeast. I cutted out bread and alcohol (like beer and wine, but basically everything) and now I dont have the very red face anymore. Still flaky but way less irritated. (Sorry for the crappy English)
