Seborrhoeic Dermatitis of skin

[Ruthi]

Sorry to ask about something so trivial in comparison to what others are battling, but does anyone have any wise words about this condition. Its driving me nut - I wake up scratching!

My GP, who is a dermatology specialist gave me ketoconazole cream (Nizoral) but its not doing a lot. He is basically saying that there is nothing much that can be done.

Sorry I have no experience of this so can't help you. Have you asked to be referred to a consultant? I would if I was you.

Good Luck.

This is something you need a referral for - there are other antifungal creams but it is best to get a consultation with a specialist dermatologist to reassess first.
