Detailed Answer:
Hi
I Am Dr Diwashish
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
Seborrheic dermatitis can be a challenging skin condition, but it can be managed with the right approach.
Here are some general tips that may help:

1. **Shampoo Regularly:** Use a medicated or anti-fungal shampoo. These shampoos can help control the underlying yeast (Malassezia) that contributes to seborrheic dermatitis.

2. **Gentle Cleansing:** Avoid harsh shampoos or soaps that can worsen the condition. Use a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser on your face and scalp.

3. **Topical Medications:** topical creams, lotions, or foams containing anti-fungal or anti-inflammatory ingredients to apply to affected areas.

4. **Moisturize:** Use a mild, hypoallergenic moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated without exacerbating the condition.

5. **Avoid Triggers:** Identify and avoid triggers that worsen your seborrheic dermatitis. These may include stress, certain skincare products, or dietary factors.

I Hope Your Query is clear now.
Thank You
