When we think about dermatitis and the places this particular skin condition can affect, most people would not think to include having dermatitis of the ear. Instead they would always consider that the most commonly affected areas of the body would be cheeks, neck, back, hands and feet. But the truth of the matter is that literally any part of the body can be affected by this dreadful skin condition. Dermatitis of the ear is becoming more prevalent and quite a number of people are suffering from this infliction.
I have devoted this article to explaining some of the facts that you need to know about dermatitis of the ear and identify some of the more common contributing factors that trigger this kind of skin condition. Included are also details of the more popular types of treatment that could help to manage or control the symptoms of ear dermatitis. Most of the recommended treatment regimes are proven to be very effective and are easy to follow.
What May Be The Cause
It is known that the cause of dermatitis of the ear is often hereditary, particularly if members of your immediate family have a history of suffering from eczema or even psoriasis. Other cases, which are not hereditary, include sufferers who have been or are currently exposed to chemical formulations such as chlorine. For this reason you will find that many swimmers suffer from dermatitis of the ear. Other contributing factors that can eventually lead a person to contract this kind of irritation, is through the use of certain harshly formulated shampoos, soaps, and conditioners. Often these personal cleaning products contain harmful ingredients that affect certain individuals.
When you are suffering from dermatitis the symptoms can include scaly skin around and on the ears, which is very dry and itchy. If the sufferer constantly scratches the area it often results in lesions, pus or wounds so it is imperative that they avoid scratching the affected area, no matter how itchy it becomes. Other logical steps would be to switch to using a more gentle shampoo, soap and conditioner as this can often help reduce or eliminate the symptoms of dermatitis of the ear. There are a number of specialized hair and body cleansing products available today that are designed for people who suffer from dermatitis and eczema.
Treatments To Consider
One of the most popular and effective treatments of dermatitis of the ear is the use of bacterial ear drops, such as the brand Ciproxin HP ear drops, which are a prescription antibiotic and hydrocortisone combination. As it is believed that around eighty percent of long-term sufferers of dermatitis of the ear are caused through a bacterial origin, this type of medication may be the obvious one to help you in treating your skin condition.
Ciproxin HC formulation is a fungal treatment which is quite new to the market. This product has been found to be quite effective with treating dermatitis of the ear if the root cause of the dermatitis is fungus based (which is the case in 20% of cases). As always, if you are unsure as to the cause and best ways to manage and control your dermatitis of the ear please consult a medical practitioner.
