Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
I will keep a possibility of seborrheic
dermatitis. Seborrheic dermatitis can present as itchy, flaky patches most commonly on the scalp; the patches can also develop at other sites such as the face and chest. All these areas are rich in sebaceous glands.
The areas affected on the face are classically sides of nose, glabella, eyebrow area.
Seborrheic dermatitis is a steroids responsive condition.
I usually ask my patients to use a moderately potent
topical steroid e.g
fluticasone propionate 0.05%cream, twice daily.
Topical steroids usually bring about remarkable improvement in seborrheic dermatitis in about 2 weeks when they can be substituted with topical immunomodulator e.g tacrolimus Or
Pimecrolimus.
Topical immmunomodulators may be used as maintenance therapy in seborrheic dermatitis since it is a recurrent condition.
I would suggest that you visit a
dermatologist in your region for a confirmatory diagnosis as well as appropriate prescription.
