Seborrheic Dermatitis

Hi group, it all started three months ago after taking anti-biotic. I
have had been diagnosed with SD by my primary care doctor and have
been on 2% ketoconazole shampoo for three months. My SD is mainly on
my scalp eyebrows and around my mouth. The shampoo seemed to help but
not stop the flaking and redness all together. I have seen improvement
(scalp flaking is almost gone), however today I saw a dermatologist
for a second opinion? The derm doc told me that he wouldn’t call my
condition full out SD? Instead he felt have a yeast infection caused
my the anti-biotic. The treatment he prescribed is all over the
counter stuff: He recommended a mix of these three ointments applied
twice a day for a month: Hydrocortisone 1% Polysporin (or any other
antibiotic cream, i.e. Neosporin) and Clotrimazol (or any other
anti-fungal i.e. lamisil)

This gives me hope that the other doctor was wrong about me having SD.

Maybe this wont be a chronic condition and I will go into remission.
Apple cider vinegar has given me good results; it’s worth a try folks.

Please write me back and give me your input. My prayers are with you
all. SD is horrible but there will be a cure some day.

Thanks, Mike
