Sebhorreic dermatitis
Hello Doctor,
I have been diagnosed for sebhorreic dermatitis 3 months ago and am undergoing treatment for the same by applying ketoconazole shampoo and few salicylic acid drops, but the treatment doesn't seem to help. I am facing major hair loss since the treatment. Is this hair loss temporary or permanent? Please suggest me a diet to follow as well
Thanks in advance
