The skin behind the ears is like dandruff

Many things used on the skin will say that you can try them behind the ears first to see if you are allergic. But in fact, behind the ears is an area that is easily overlooked in daily life.

What happens if the scalp behind the ears is like dandruff?

Moist dandruff behind the ears may be caused by seborrheic dermatitis, which is an inflammatory skin disease that occurs in areas of sebum secretion. Seborrheic dermatitis Seborrheic dermatitis often occurs in areas where there are more sebaceous glands, such as the scalp, face, chest and wrinkles.

Even the slightest touch can cause bleeding and severe pain. In this case, using instruments to peel off the scab requires very high stability in the doctor's hands. The doctor patiently peeled off the scab from the outside to the inside, and the scab attached to the surface of the eardrum was also peeled off and taken out bit by bit.

Dermatophyte infections involve the stratum corneum and skin appendages, such as hair and nail plate, which can extensively damage the structure of these tissues and are accompanied by varying degrees of host immune response; the most common of these fungal infections is dermatophytosis, and other fungal infections include cutaneous candidiasis, etc.
