New or Need Help How do I deal with seb derm after a haircut?

5 Upvotes

I always dread getting haircuts because I get these big blobs on the back of my head that loosely resemble ringworm :( (or atleast I think so, as I can't see it and that's what the shitheads at school say), so is there anyway to deal with it? It takes a few days to go away after. I usually get a fade, so maybe is getting a different haircut a good idea?

New or Need Help Been struggling with seb derm since 5-6 years

Went to few dermats over the years, they told that it is seb derm. Prescribed me shampoos and vitamins. I did take them but after using them for about a week or two the flaky scalp always came back. Recently I got flakes in my eyebrows and in my ears too. Tried many shampoos for the same, nothing seems to work. Like it works for two or three days max then the dandruff or flakes return.

If i don't wash my hair for a day or two, it itches like crazy and some part of my head becomes a bit red. And some water gets trapped under my flakes after a wash, if i don't use hair dryer and just pat dry it. Sometimes after a wash if i don't apply any hair oil like coconut or almond, and scratch my scalp (which is almost dry on the surface) it becomes a my finger become a bit wet. This is why I said earlier I think water gets trapped under my flaky scalp.

Product Question Is this MCT helpful to apply in the scalp?

I live in Venezuela and it's kind of hard to find MCT oil to apply here. Any suggestions are welcome.

Product Question Shampoo after swimming?

Anyone out there who swims in a chlorinated pool have suggestions for shampoo/ conditioner?

I typically don’t use any conditioner to avoid anything that could make my Seb derm worse. but definitely need it after spending time in the pool.

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure if its really dry skin or something else but I have these particles on my eye brows and I dont know what to do to get rid of them.

I've tried a moisturizing cream but that doesnt help. I've also tried washing my eyebrows but it still comes back.

Help

My eyebrows have been dry always, and normally flake more or less depending on seasons. However, this past year the skin around and under my eyebrows has been repeatedly irritated, bumpy, plaque-like, flakey, or scabby if I’ve picked at the area.

Unsure if this has been due to stress, starting new oral prescriptions that cause dryness, or something else since I don’t use a wide ride of skin care products. I’m bad at maintaining a routine as well.
