Eela is a common term among the Yorubas used for skin disorders in infants likewise Nla is used by the Ibos.
This terms more commonly refers to a skin disorder called Infantile seborrheic dermatitis (henceforth referred to as ISD). The cause of this disorder is unknown. This rash may be due to child’s response to some organisms in the oily areas of the body namely the scalp, eyebrows behind the ears, or on the neck, cheeks, chest skin folds and diaper area. It’s most common in babies under 6 months.
