Suggest Treatment For Severe Seborrheic Dermatitis

Hi Doc, I am suffering from seborrheic dermatitis on Scalp for last 3months, I have consulted with a skin specialist And he has prescribed me to use clobetasol, It has magically cleared my head, however as soon as I stopped using it, it comes back all over again. I can also see some marks red spots on my legs too. What should I do now?? Thanks in Advance.

Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the issue requires an in-person appointment and further care.
* Long term dosage of antifungal, supportive steroids, multivitamins, antioxidants medication play vital role to clear the condition in the best possible manner.
* Ozon therapy, laser, and monoclonal antibodies are the latest resorts in refractory cases.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
