Common Questions and Answers about Dandruff and eyelid

dandruff

Avatar n tn Seborrheic dermatitis is a common skin condition that causes flaky,dry, white to yellowish scales to form on oily areas esp under the nose or anywhere on face. You can treat flaking and dryness with over-the-counter dandruff or medicated shampoos. Shampoo the hair vigorously and frequently (preferably daily). Active ingredients in these shampoos include salicylic acid, coal tar, zinc, resorcin, ketoconazole, or selenium.
Avatar m tn You can clearly see the bump to the left (the possible chalazion that hasnt changed in the last 50 days), and the redness right next to it, at the center and border of the eyelid, which looks and feels like a small wound, with some red veins coming out of that region. You can also see that the eyelashes are growing separated in that particular spot. - The second frame shows 2 kind of yellowish spots just at the eyelid margin.

Avatar m tn i was told i have MILD MGD and bit of allergy on my right eyelid and left eyelid just mild MGD.. he gave me a sterioid drop tobramycin and dexamethasone only for the right side and he told me i HAVE to do warm compress for for 2-3 mins two times a day.. the steroid drop kind pretty much stopped the inflamed eyelid margin but it DOES NOT GO DOWN NO MATTER WHAT I TRY!! I do warm compress for 5-10 mins at 6pm and at 12AM EVERYDAY!! i massage it while im during the compress.
Avatar m tn However every morning i wake up with dry eyes, and the inside corner of my eyelid is always very itchy and sore. The lid scrubs have helped my eye lids but seem to have made the itchiness and soreness of the inside corner of my lids worse. It was particularly bad last night and this morning i woke up with 2 large crusty lumps on both my eyelids right in the inside corners of them. As hot compresses dont really reach that narrow area of the eye i am a bit lost as to what to do.
Avatar n tn I have eyelid problem on and off for couple of months now. Part of the upper eyelid get puffy after a night's sleep. It is red and somewhat itchy and somewhat hard to open the eye(s). When the swollen got down, the skin in the area would become flaky. I do not have allergy and have not been using any eye makeup for a while. I appreciate any advice or suggestion on remedies.
Avatar m tn Blepharitis is an ocular disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the eyelid margins. I suggest you to consult a dermatologist and get all these possibilities evaluated. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
1654177 tn?1319838494 Thanks. Yes, back of my neck, and mostly at the top of my forehead where the hairline starts, flakes falling on my face all the time. I'll try olive oil and other oils, thank you all.
Avatar m tn But the skin is still greasy under my brow and on my eyelid, which results in hairs being weak and falling out. Any suggestions to clear up the greasy skin? I've tried hydrocortisone cream, but to little avail. Also, the condition seems to worsen after a night of drinking alcohol - is that part of the problem? Finally, will the lost hairs grow back, because the hair loss is beginning to make my eyebrows look asymmetrical. I'm 21 year old male, if that's relevant.
Avatar n tn I had this problem and used Weleda Skin Food on my eyelid and it is completely healed and the crepey skin effect is gone too. Just wanted anyone who has suffered to have another option if nothing else works. I tried baby shampoo, dandruff shampoo, petroleum Jelly, antifungals, non steriod vanishing creams and the Weleda was the only thing that worked. I put a dab on every nite. Good luck!
1087148 tn?1256589689 Hello, I am a 20 year old female. I have been a healthy person for the most part. Thats why when I started to have problems it has really scarred me. Symptom #1: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed that when I would brush and wash my hair or did anything with it, lots of hair started falling out. I know hair loss is somewhat normal, but I literally only have half the amount of hair I did when this started. It has really been worrying me.
Avatar m tn Hi Everyone, around a month ago my alt was 176 and going to start my treatment next week. Now a days i feel very very itchy specially on face and head. all of a sudden i have a whole lot of dandruff all over my head. i even used anti dandruff shampoo everyday but didn't help. is this because of Hep c? i have genotype 3. Please englighten me.
Avatar n tn then i started to develop light dandruff (white, very little grains) and seem not to manage to get it under control with normal dandruff shampoos etc. while googling dandruff i read that dandruff (but i assume heavy) can be a sign of hiv infection. then i started reading about scary high aids rates in portugal. especially as most new infections here come from hetero sexual encounters.
Avatar f tn I have been seeing a Tear Duct Specialist and he has me on Aszite drops and Erthyromycin eyelid ointment, plus Doxycycline. During my last three office visits, he has probed and irrigated my tear ducts. They have improved quite a bit. I have to continue the medications and may have to continue for a long time.
Avatar m tn Hello, For dandruff, eat a healthy diet. You can also take vit B6 and vit A and E which are good for hair and skin. Try medicated shampoos for dandruff. There are a number of over-the-counter shampoos available that can help. The most effective ingredients -- antimicrobials -- to look for are zinc pyridinethione, selenium sulfide, sulfur and ketoconazole (also available by prescription). If your hair is colored, don't use products with selenium sulfide or sulfur.
Avatar f tn Hi, wondering if anyone has an answer for me. I used to get dandruff on and off and I used head & shoulders or others like it and it worked fine. This winter, however, my scalp has gotten extremly dry and itchy and flaky, and sore from all the scratching. I tried a bunch of more heavy duty OTC shampoos for dandruff, but none worked. I used an essential oils scalp massage and that worked for a bit. Now it is out of control and driving me crazy.
Avatar m tn Honestly i do not know when it started but i am always using my finger to rub on my scalp looking for something to scratch off , i have a serious problem with dandruff it comes and goes and sometimes grow over night. When i have it bad i notice i have red spots or bumps on my scalp and i need help because i am very scared this might be some sort of disease ... can someone tell me what are these small red spots that appear ?
Avatar n tn Do you have tips on how to get rid of them? Natural and the cheapest way if possible, coz some of my dandruff sometimes results in minor wound like patches.
1486982 tn?1289461783 I have had an itchy scalp and dandruff. My hair is healthy and becomes oily very easily.

Avatar f tn I mean when I flip it there a little white bump
