Was wondering what might be causing a rash that is very similar to the malar-rash: flaky itchy/burning brows and cheeks, the rash seems to be at the top of my scalp as well and has trailed to the upper lip. The rash is slightly raised and almost always leaves it feeling tender.
Hello, Thank you for posting on Chat Doctor. From your history, it looks like you have got seborrhea dermatitis. Sebaceous hyperplasia is enlarged and swollen sebaceous glands which produces excessive sebum and this in turn can lead to dermatitis of skin called Seborrhea dermatitis. Excess sebum production promotes fungal growth and these in turn eventually contributes to seborrhea dermatitis. I would suggest you a course of oral antifungal Chat Doctor.  Fluconazole 150 mg tablet should be taken once a week for at least 6 weeks. Apply a cream containing mometasone and terminating twice a day and a salicylic acid 1% based gel in evening over affected areas gently. Use ketoconazole based shampoo on regular basis for hair wash. I am sure you will be fine with this treatment. Let me know if you require any more assistance from my side. Wish you best of health. Thank you
