Section 1: What do you guys thinks about my ideas on how to prevent Dermatitis?

[AllaboutDermatitis]

I have been suffering from dermatitis for about a year now. Prior to that I have never had any skin conditions, not even a spot and everyone used to compliment how nice my skin was. At the beginning it started with tiny red patch on the right side of my nose after I returned to UK from a holiday. I thought that it was just a rash so did not care about it. A month passed and the redness was getting bigger and flakey. It was then I decided to visit the GP and they said that it was a reaction and gave me a cream called Betnovate. I've used it for a week and the redness was still there and this time with tiny spots that you can hardly see and it was also spread to the left side of my nose so I had the patches on both sides of my nasal area. I visited the GP and said Its spreading, she said it won't spread and gave me another cream called Daktacort to use on top of the cream that was prescribed previously. The cream did work however it came back within a day if I did not apply it over the night. So long story short, I was visiting my GP every 2 weeks to a month with 1 year looking for different creams as the creams prescribed previously was becoming less effective each day and they also cause skin thinning (skin becomes saggy and veins become visible). The creams were not working, so I decided to do my own research on google and found dozens of information such as applying lavender oil, tea tree oil, coconut oil vs as they are all antiseptic. I first started it with applying it on the right side of my nose where it starter and it did dry it out. However it was only for a short time. As the doctors kept insisting that it won't spread, I now have Dermatitis all around my nose, chin, under eyes and eye brows.. And I've only discovered that applying oil on your face feeds the bacteria that causes Dermatitis. How do I know? I had tiny patch on my chin, I've applied tea tree oil on the area and the next day my chin was full of blisters..

I have moved this topic to my take as there is word limit on questions. The title is 'Cure for Dermatitis'.

I too suffer from dermatitis but it depends on the one you have. I have Seborrhic Dermatitis. Its on the back of my ears, sides of nose, forehead (just above eyebrows), eyebrows, some parts of my skin. My dermatologist prescribed some prednisone (I think) for the inflammation. It helped a great deal. The flare stopped but the next year it acted up again. If this is indeed what you have then you must know that it isn't caused by bacteria but moreso by Fungus/Yeast that live on our skin naturally.
