Symptom 8: Burning Sensation
Some individuals with seborrheic dermatitis may experience a burning sensation on the affected areas of the skin. This can be caused by the inflammation and irritation associated with the condition or as a side effect of certain treatments used to manage the symptoms.
The burning sensation can be particularly distressing for those affected and can contribute to further discomfort and a reduced quality of life. To alleviate the burning sensation, it’s crucial to consult a healthcare professional who can recommend the most appropriate treatment options to minimize this symptom.
In some cases, over-the-counter creams and ointments containing soothing ingredients, such as aloe vera or chamomile, can help provide relief from the burning sensation. However, it’s essential to ensure that these products do not contain any ingredients that may worsen the condition or cause further irritation. (8)
