Seborrheic Dermatitis is a common skin condition that leads to dandruff, itching, redness, and flaking of the scalp, face, or body. It is not contagious, but it causes discomfort and affects confidence.
Causes of Seborrheic Dermatitis
Excess oil secretion in scalp and skin
Imbalance of Pitta and Kapha doshas in Ayurveda
Fungal overgrowth (Malassezia)
Stress, poor sleep, or weak immunity
Ayurvedic View
In Ayurveda, Seborrheic Dermatitis is linked to Kapha-Pitta imbalance. Excess heat (Pitta) and stickiness (Kapha) create inflammation, itching, and flakes. Ayurveda focuses on balancing doshas, detoxifying the body, and strengthening immunity.
