Exploring the Connection Between Rosacea and Seborrheic Dermatitis
Research by Bass & Boney Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in 1999 determined that as many as 35% of patients with rosacea display symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis.
In the summer of 2004, research by the National Rosacea Society verified these facts in a study of their own: “According to a new study, rosacea is the most common facial skin disorder overlapping with seborrheic dermatitis (SD), a chronic and recurring inflammatory condition characterized by a red, scaly or itchy rash often found in the creases around the nose, the inner eyebrows or as dandruff on the scalp. Dr. James Del Rosso, clinical assistant professor of dermatology at the University of Nevada, found that 26 percent of rosacea patients had facial SD and 28 percent had SD of the scalp.
In infants seborrheic dermatitis is referred to as cradle cap or infantile eczema.
Rosacea-Ltd can be used on skin that is sensitive to the occurrence of both rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis.

Nummular Eczema
Nummular eczema is a name given to a stubborn, sometimes itchy rash that forms coin-shaped patches on the skin. The lesions as they get older may clear in the center resembling ring worm or fungus. The condition tends to be chronic, with periods of quiescence and exacerbation.The cause is unknown although it is more common in the winter. Nummular eczema is frequently associated with dry skin. Wool, soaps and frequent bathing (more than once a day) often worsen the condition. People with eczema have skin that is dry and easily irritated by soap, detergents, and rough wool clothing. Clothes washed or dried with liquid or sheet fabric softeners such as Cling, may also irritate the skin. Hot and cold weather often aggravates eczema. Certain allergies may worsen eczema, but they don't cause it.

Understanding And Treating Peri-oral Dermatitis
Scaly, erythematous papular and papulopustular rashes on the face are a common sight for dermatologists, and a number of possible diagnoses come to mind.
When these eruptions are concentrated mostly perinasally and around the mouth, experienced dermatologists diagnose perioral dermatitis (POD). Yet novice dermatologists must be wary not to use perioral dermatitis as a waste paper basket diagnosis. This eruption can mimic several other dermatoses, each having a different etiology.
Topical regimens that appear to be effective in the treatment of POD include metronidazole 0.75 percent, 1 percent or 2 percent cream, erythromycin 1.5 to 2 percent solution or ointment (with or without 1 percent hydrocortisone), clindamycin gel, azelaic acid 20 percent, as well as adapalene gel 0.1 percent. Also, photodynamic therapy has also shown promise in clearing this eruption. Patients may get better without any treatment if they strictly avoid potent corticosteroids, moisturizers and make-up.

New Theories On The Cause Of Eczema
Contrary to popular belief, eczema is not caused by an allergy and has a big genetic component, new research shows. The painful condition, often lumped with allergies, hay fever and asthma as being the result of an overactive immune system, is caused by cracks in the skin that allow irritants such as soap to get in.
A report in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology found two-thirds of asthma patients who had eczema had a form that was triggered by something other than an allergic reaction.
“If a child has skin that is a bit fragile and then spends hours being washed with bubble bath and shampoo, sitting in an air-conditioned room and wearing synthetic clothing it is very likely they will develop eczema,” Perth dermatologist Kurt Gebauer said.
