Acne
Acne is a common skin condition characterized by pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. It occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Effective treatment includes proper skincare, medications, and lifestyle changes to manage and reduce breakouts.
Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition that causes red, scaly patches to form on the skin. It occurs due to an overactive immune system that speeds up skin cell growth. Treatments include topical creams, phototherapy, and systemic medications to manage symptoms and improve skin appearance.
Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a skin condition characterized by the loss of pigment, leading to white patches on various parts of the body. It occurs when melanocytes, the cells responsible for skin color, are destroyed. Treatments include topical medications, light therapy, and, in some cases, surgery to restore skin color.
Hair Fall
Hair fall, also known as hair loss, can be caused by various factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, stress, and nutritional deficiencies. It can result in thinning hair or bald patches. Treatments range from topical solutions and medications to lifestyle changes and hair transplant procedures.
Skin Pigmentation
Skin pigmentation, also referred to as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, can stem from a variety of factors, such as genetics, sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations, injuries, and certain medications. It manifests as patches of skin that are darker or lighter than the surrounding areas.
Eczema
Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, causes inflamed, itchy, dry patches on the skin due to genetic, environmental, and immune factors. Treatments include moisturizers, topical medications, antihistamines, and lifestyle adjustments. Severe cases may require systemic medications or phototherapy for symptom management under medical guidance.
Allergic Rash
An allergic rash results from the immune system's reaction to allergens like food, medications, or substances. It presents as red, itchy bumps or patches on the skin. Treatment involves identifying and avoiding allergens, using antihistamines, topical corticosteroids, and soothing creams to relieve symptoms. Severe cases may require medical intervention.
Leprosy
Leprosy, caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium leprae, primarily affects the skin, peripheral nerves, and mucosal surfaces. It manifests as skin lesions, nodules, and nerve damage, leading to sensory loss. Treatments involve multi-drug therapy to eradicate the bacteria and prevent disability. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent deformities and transmission.
Childhood Skin Diseases
Childhood skin diseases encompass a range of conditions affecting infants and children, including eczema, diaper rash, chickenpox, impetigo, and molluscum contagiosum. These conditions vary in severity and treatment, often requiring pediatrician or dermatologist intervention for proper diagnosis and management.
