Eczema and dermatitis both refer to inflamed, itchy skin, with eczema being the more chronic form. Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition that causes thick, scaly patches. Though symptoms can overlap, their causes and treatments differ.
The best eczema treatment depends on severity. Options include topical steroids, moisturizers, antihistamines, or advanced therapies like phototherapy or biologics for severe eczema.
Seborrheic dermatitis causes greasy, yellowish scales on the scalp and around oily areas of the face. Scalp psoriasis typically forms thicker, silver-white scales and may extend beyond the hairline. Diagnosis by a dermatologist is essential.
While there is no permanent cure, symptoms can be effectively managed with consistent treatment, lifestyle changes, and dermatologist supervision.
Dyshidrotic eczema (pompholyx) is treatable with targeted therapies that help manage symptoms and reduce flare-ups. Common treatments include topical corticosteroids to reduce inflammation, drying soaks to ease itching and blistering, and advanced options for persistent cases. With proper care, symptoms can be significantly controlled and future outbreaks minimized.
