Hi,
Boswellia continues to work very well for me. Along with vitamin B5 it
has reduced the sebum on my skin and reduced the redness as well.
During the day I use Dermadoctor’s Tease Zone to dry up the oil on my
face. Works great for me. I’m not using any topicals right now. Let me
know if you have any questions.

well…i’m 27 years old male and around april/may of 2004 i got a
small maybe 1/8of an inch by 1/8 of an inch round ashy scaly patch on
my head … and it was itchy yeah i messed with it … i figured it
was a rash and it would subside by itsself… i figured it was a
bacterial infection got antibiotics… didnt help at all… when to
2 doctors one said here is some Hydrocortizone hope it helps…. it
didnt really helpand i gave up the one patch grew larger (origial
diagnosis dermititis) allerguic/contact dermititis but i was unsure
as i read up on it made one of my friends who’s a doc run all kinds of
tests on me cancer liver function etc… i’m 100% ok but found signs
of infection through one of the panels
3-4 months later it was in my ears in december it just exploded to
being one 1 spot on head to say approximatly 10 spots on my scalp the
origial being around 2.5 diameter inches now i got it on my face

I’ve been taking Brewers Yeast supplements on the recommendation of
someone on the psoriasis newsgroup (I have psoriasis too) for the
benefit of nail psoriasis.
and it mentions yeasts, including Brewers Yeast, making SD worse.
This would make sense as my own SD has been worse. Awful thought that
I might have been making my own situation worse, LOL.
Anyone taken Brewer’s Yeast and noticed any effects on their SD either
+ or -.
-Richard.
Thinking of asking my GP for this as Nizoral Cream and the selenium
sulphide shampoo I’ve been using around my nose are increasingly
ineffective.
Surprisingly, I could find no mention of this searching the archive
for this group.
Has *anyone* out there used this stuff before?

Hey everyone!
One day I came across a website last year (www.nationaleczema.org) and
on this website it mentioned about their National Eczema Association
of Science and Education Patient Conference that was taking place in
summer. I was just wondering if anyone had been to this particular
conference or something similar and if you could just share your
experience with me (what takes place at these conferences? Is it
useful? would you recommend it?). I know that they are offering
another one this summer and it is in California (sometime in August)
and I’m just toying with the idea of going. I live in Canada and we
don’t have anything like that here, so if I want to find out about new
medications that have come out I usually have to research it on the
internet. I just thought maybe the conference could provide me with
some up-to-date information with regard to what is happening with
(more…)
anyone else have this ??
normal was 1 - 10 % mine came in 12 %
i have SD and some acne also Tinea versicolor
mostly visible under Woods UV lamp
ive tried the treatment as described in a Medline entry from
Dubai.
I did find the flakyness to abate but it seems i’m getting acne.
Honey i’m using is "honey in the rough"
it also has some granules in it that can be abrasive when gently
rubbing it in.
is Manuka honey from New zealand better ?
certainly more expensive.
Hello,
Good day!

Here is my list of treatments…
Listerine (or Equate) and Q-tips or cotton balls:
Soak a couple of q-tips with Listerine. I use a copy-cat product
sold at Wal-Mart called: Equate. It’s an Antiseptic mouth rinse.
Gently apply a q-tip over affected areas avoiding your eyes. This
quick treatment should stop any pain associated with inflamed SD.
The Antiseptic will also dissolve any sebaceous oil that’s caked up
on and around the nose, side of face, the eyebrows, mustache and the
skin behind the ears.
Shampoo:
I’ve been using: P&S Shampoo. It’s a Seborrheic Dermatitis and
Psoriasis Shampoo. I found it to be very gentle.
I’m 21 years old and about 5 months ago I started dealing with a
diffuse hair loss later followed by itching of the forehead, scalp,
eyebrows and along my eyelashes - I’m not sure what the problem is
and I’m scared that my hair will keep falling out until i’m bald -
it’s not receding or anything just falling out in a diffuse loss and
the itching is really bad - please help, does anyone have any
suggestions?
