Seborrheic dermatitis is a common chronic inflammatory skin condition, characterized by scaling and poorly defined erythematous patches. It may be associated with pruritus, and it primarily affects sebum-rich areas, such as the scalp, face, upper chest, and back. Although its pathogenesis is not completely understood, some postulate that the condition results from colonization of the skin of affected individuals with species of the genus Malassezia (formerly, Pityrosporum). A variety of treatment modalities are available, including eradication of the fungus, reducing or treating the inflammatory process, and decreasing sebum production.
脂溢性皮炎是一种常见的慢性炎症性皮肤病,其特征为鳞屑和边界不清的红斑。它可能伴有瘙痒,主要累及富含皮脂的区域,如头皮、面部、上胸部和背部。尽管其发病机制尚未完全明确,但一些人推测该病是由马拉色菌属(以前称为糠秕孢子菌属)的菌种在患病个体的皮肤上定植所致。有多种治疗方式可供选择,包括根除真菌、减轻或治疗炎症过程以及减少皮脂分泌。
