A Self-Help Guide For Natural Remedies

Seborrhea Natural Treatment

Seborrhea is a disorder of the sebaceous glands, the glands that secrete oil.  Seborrhea occurs on the scalp, face, and chest most often, but can appear on other parts of the body.  It is characterized by greasy patches on the body that form scales and crusts.  Seborrheic skin is prone to such conditions as alopecia, seborrheic dermatitis, and acne.

There are several types of seborrhea:

• Cap'itis. Located on scalp.

• Congestive. See Lupus.

• Corporis. Located on the trunk

• Facier. Located on the face.

• Nigra or Nigricans. dark-colored seborrhea.

• Oliosa. Seborrhea with an oily content.

• Rosacea. Middle-age seborrhea that reappears.

• Sicca. Dry form of seborrhea with scales.

Seborrhea may be caused by a vitamin A deficiency.  The advice of a competent physician should be sought early.  it is best not to use over-the-counter ointments to treat it-this can cause an overload on the skin.  A dermatologist usually prescribes cleaning lotions containing a drying agent with sulfur and Resorcin and/or Deprosone cream.  if antibiotics are prescribed, don't fail to take extra B-complex vitamins and either acidophilus or Megadophilus to replace the "friendly" bacteria destroyed by the antibiotics.
