Treating Sebaceous Adenitis

SA cannot be cured, but it can be treated after clearing any secondary skin infections. Treatment usually involves a topical regimen of frequent bathing and oiling to help loosen and remove scaling and dead hair. This protocol also helps return lubricants to the skin due to the absence of the sebaceous glands.
