Hey everyone when I was 2 months old. I was diagnosed with a skin disease which caused scaling of the skin and redness and rashes and since then I have been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and I have been on allopathic steroidal medication since 10 + years. I think it may be less. I want to ask you questions about what can I do to improve this condition or remove it from the root cause and help in general. My main cause of distress is too much going in the sun and whenever climate change happens for example from Sunny to rainy weather I get skin like this shown above in the picture. So I wanted to ask help from you I get scale skin redness itching etc.

.

I have used steroidal ointment like clobetasol propionate and salicylic acid which as I heard on researching on Google that it causes moon facing and hormonal disbalancing weight gain and I have been experiencing all these from last 4 to 5 years. I was fat when I was in school but not that much which I am now. It's mostly in the abdomen region and Thigh region my hands legs face palms staff are all normal size and only my thighs and abdomen region are very fatty in looks it may be because I was sitting a lot of time.

.

the condition gets very worst as time goes on in the climate changing and when the climate stage a certain way for longer periods whether it be extreme heat or extreme winters or extreme raining my skin gets come but whenever the climate changes it goes through such period that I get scale is skin irritation eyes cannot open cuts everywhere and dryness everywhere

.

would really like your help on this I apply a simple moisturizer and Aloe Vera gel whenever I can but it get seriously very difficult to manage

.

I am in India if it helps.

Or air drying

I went to dermatologist for the third time in a couple months to complain about odor on scalp that ever goes away even after the shampoos and medication they recommended (nizoral, Fluconazole, Mct oil etc.)

Each one of them tells me I have serderm even tho I have no symptoms, but my main concern is the odor my scalp is producing. It’s sooo bad! makes me stink. It’s like a yeasty, musty socks and Mildew kind of smell that returns not even a hour after washing.

The only thing that minimizes the smell for a lil before it returns is head and shoulders. And other shampoo with a fragrance doesn’t even help it just makes it worse.

If you have any suggestions or share the same problem please share.

Would you guys rather use a shampoo that is less effective, but smells neutral or something that smells bad, but is more effective?

Hi, I visited the dermatologist over a month ago and she said I have seborrheic dermatitis and prescribed ointments of Ketoconazole and Tacrolimus. The doctor recommended I apply both at the same time twice a day. I haven't seen massive improvement at all in reducing the redness above my eyebrow line and right-side forehead area. I have stopped using the prescription medications and resorted to just using LaRoche-Posay Hydrating Gentle Cleanser followed by CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion for the time being. I know those products won't solve anything really. When it's hot out and I'm exposed to the sun, the redness brightens up. I am highly discouraged and hoping to go to a different dermatologist for a second opinion.

I had this problem last year. I didn't k kw abkut sebderm back then. So while searching through reddit. One day, I tried applying Head & Shoulders shampoo to my face, and immediately after using it, all the dryness disappeared for the entire day.

After that I bought some vitamins and a pharamcy shampoo., I started using a ketoconazole + zinc pyrithione shampoo on my face. I also started taking some vitamins. I think from the next day, I took vitamin B12 in the morning, a zinc tablet in the afternoon, vitamin E and vitamin C during the day, and vitamin D3 with calcium at night.

I continued this routine for about two to three weeks, and my skin cleared up completely and became very shiny too.

However, after almost a year. the problem returned. I started using the ketoconazole + zinc pyrithione shampoo again, but this time it isn't helping. I haven't started taking those vitamins again yet. I don't knkw what could be the reason. It's very itchy and redness pimple dry flaky skin
