Question 1

what is stasis dermatisis?

Accepted Answer

High pressure effect: If the valves in the leg veins do not work to allow flow only towards the heart (most common cause is varicose vein disease), the legs do not drain well and there is high pressure on the vessels at the ankles. These then 'leak' fluids and blood cells into the surrounding tissues, which cause an inflammatory process that involves the skin. Redness, itching, scaling, hair loss, thickening, etc.

Question 2

how to treat dermatisis if it been from long time?

Accepted Answer

Many ways: A physician will need to know more about the cause; namely potential triggers, onset/duration, nature of the rash, more about your medical history etc. before offering advice.  See a dermatologist if you have not already.  Rashes are not just annoying, but can cause long lasting damage and discomfort and can herald serious internal disease.  Good luck!

Question 3

Use short term: Deltasone certainly has a long list of side effects but if the medicine is used in lower dosages which 10 mg is and if the drug is used for a short period one to wo weeks for example side effects can be minimal and is usually well tolerated. assuming you do not have other medical problems such as diabetes, the medication should be tolerated. Good luck

Question 4

Accepted Answer

: It has been 3 years so I doubt you have suffered from fungal balanitis. I think you should try to moisten the glans skin with moisturizer such as baby vaseline twice a day for a week or so as a trial first. Good luck.

Question 8

what increases my risk for dermatitis?

Accepted Answer

Not specific enough: "dermatitis" just means "inflammation of the skin". In other words, pretty much every rash is a "dermatitis". Without a more specific idea of what is going on, it is impossible to recommend treatment. Even if you are using "dermatitis" as a synonym for "eczema" (as some do), the possibilities are still too broad, since there are so many different kinds of eczema.

Yes: Essential fatty acids such as flaxseed oil and zinc can be helpful.
