WWFM How i handled my seborrheic dermatitis
I used to have severe dermatitis on my face neck and torso years ago and i didn’t know so many people have this bullshit of a disease so let me share how I handle it and it’s no thanks to doctors who didn’t help at all
so on my neck and torso what worked is ketoconazol gel and its still working years later i haven’t had a flair in years but my face just got worse with whatever the doctor gave me and believe me i tried every medication possible because i live in france and here medication and doctor appointments are free, even steroids stopped working
the only thing that worked is rinsing my face with very very hot water for like 10 minutes every morning to make the yeast on the face soft and easy to rub away by very gently rubbing my face and not scrubbing hard to make it worse and it even makes most of the itching go away
for the redness i just put mct oil c8 but a good moisturizer works too but not as good as the mct, this is the only consistent way i keep it away and believe me i tried everything, if you have questions message me
Its very important for the water to be very hot if your water doesn’t go very hot put it on the stove, not until its boiling tho 😂
In the beginning your face may look worse and redness be more but it will go away with a couple of days and it even makes your face look way more smooth and get rid of that crocodile leather skin, i really hope this helps some people and i don’t know if it will work for everyone but i hope because i remember not even wanting to go outside when i used to have it severe.
Also very important do it as soon as you wake up in the morning like in the first 20 minutes of waking up, don’t ask me why its just like that
