MCT 8+10 vs MCT 8 for seb derm
I’ve been using MCT 8+10 oil for my seb derm for a few months and I thought it was working but it was not. The first day my scalp was somewhat soothed, still flaky but not nearly as bad and less itchy. I didn’t use it again for a week and flaking and itching came back worse than it’s ever been. I’ve tried it a few other times since then and at this point it does nothing for the flaking or itching.
I’ve read a few places that I should have been using pure MCT 8 oil, not the 8+10 because it could feed the yeast. Based off of my reaction to the 8+10 oil, should I bother with the pure MCT 8 oil? I feel like I’ve tried everything to soothe my scalp seb derm and nothing has worked.
If anyone has any product recommendations aside from MCT oil, please let me know.
