I think it might be eczema...yes..it happens only on my face... it varies but pretty much my nose, eyebrows.. and cheeks...sometimes i get flakes... some times it becomes very red...the skin there swells....i been to around 20 derms... some diagnosed as atopic dermatitis...some said its both Atopic + Seborrheic (is it possible...my understanding is the difference is how you will aquire it....) for me all these conditions are periodic.. they come and they go away.. again they show up.. i think every derm will have standard procedure.. try... antifungal...then steriods...then something else..... antifungal has not even made nano difference on me...i used desonide for a while.. now protopic...i think protopic is the best i have ever seen...eventhough i am worried what side effects it may cause in <!--more--> the long run... i am following this group and tried...some things that are discussed here... i used ACV to my face..but it didnt help..but it sure helped to reduce my flake on my head...i strongly suggest that it will be very helpful to reduce flakes in your hair...My hair became very clear.. now.. i am applying once a month...but i observed that flakes on my face are less when hair is cleared... and also someone discussing the salt water yesterday... i tried it just now..(1 am...)but still it has same effect as ACV....if you tried ACV...with salt water you feel the same way... thanks kp.. Thanks Goldie and Ralph…
for your valuable suggestions. I think it might be
eczema…yes..it happens only on my face… it varies but
pretty much my nose, eyebrows.. and cheeks…sometimes i get flakes…
some times it becomes very red…the skin there swells….i been
to around 20 derms… some diagnosed as atopic dermatitis…some said
its both Atopic + Seborrheic (is it possible…my understanding is
the difference is how you will aquire it….) for me all these
conditions are periodic.. they come and they go away.. again they
show up..
i think every derm will have standard procedure.. try…
antifungal…then steriods…then something else…..
antifungal has not even made nano difference on me…i used desonide
for a while.. now protopic…i think protopic is the best i have ever
seen…eventhough i am worried what side effects it may cause in

the long run…

i am following this group and tried…some things that are discussed
here…
i used ACV to my face..but it didnt help..but it sure helped to
reduce my flake on my head…i strongly suggest that it will be very
helpful to reduce flakes in your hair…My hair became very clear..
now.. i am applying once a month…but i observed that flakes on
my face are less when hair is cleared…

and also someone discussing the salt water yesterday… i tried it
just now..(1 am…)but still it has same effect as ACV….if you
tried ACV…with salt water you feel the same way…

thanks
kp..

Your symtoms sound more like that than sebderm. You should try Elidel. It is a prescription ointment which feels a lot like vaseline and might help you. Are you sure you don’t have eczema?
