Hi
Seborrhoeic dermatitis is a chronic skin condition. There is an excessive secretion of sebum which may have seasonal variation as well as due to lifestyle stress or smoking. There is a overgrowth of some fungi which causes redness and flaking. usually this condition is treated with shampoos and lotions. severe exacerbated seb dermatitis can be treated with tablets. do meet a dermatologist to get a customised treatment plan
