Treatment of Scalp Neurodermatitis in "ON Clinic Odessa"

Neurodermatitis is a chronic skin disease of a neurogenic and allergic nature characterized by regular relapses (remission usually lasts no more than 1-2 years). It can affect any part of the body but most often, its signs are found in areas where the skin is the thinnest (in the armholes, under the knees, inside the elbows, on the neck and face).

One of the most common forms of this pathology is scalp neurodermatitis Inflamed areas can be local or evenly distributed on the skin surface.

Symptoms of scalp neurodermatitis usually severe:

• The skin starts to itch

• The affected areas become red and peel

• Plaques are covered with crusts, which eventually crack and let out blood serum.

Neurodermatitis is characterized by a vicious circle. When combing the itching areas, the number of plaques increases causing even more intense itching. This causes both physical and psychological discomfort. Also, if you consider that one of the main causes of scalp neurodermatitis is neurological disorders, the circle closes again.

That is why you should appoint a consultation with a trichologist if you notice the first symptoms.

To achieve a stable remission, you need a complex therapy, which consists of:

They are aimed primarily at the elimination of itching, reduction of inflamed area and achievement of stable remission.

Causes of scalp neurodermatitis

There are a number of factors that can trigger the development of scalp neurodermatitis. They include:

• Hereditary predisposition

• Neurological pathology

• Chronic diseases of the digestive or endocrine system

• Immunodeficiency disorders

• Body intoxication

• Metabolic diseases

• Chronic fatigue, accompanied by mental or physical exhaustion

• Constant stress.

The disease is not contagious; it can not be transmitted through contact. In many patients, it develops against the background of allergies (to dust, animal hair, pollen, and other external stimuli). In such cases, neurodermatitis can be treated with the help of antihistamine therapy and topical drugs, which eliminate symptoms of the disease.

During the treatment process, it is also important to keep a balanced diet, strengthen immunity, and avoid stressful situations and fatigue.
