Dermatology

Dermatology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the skin, hair, and nails. Dermatologists are medical doctors who have completed specialized training in dermatology.

The skin is the largest organ of the body, and it serves many functions, including protecting the body from environmental factors, regulating body temperature, and facilitating sensory perception. Dermatologists are experts in the care and treatment of the skin, and they can diagnose and treat a wide range of skin conditions.

FAQs

What skin problems happen most often?

Psoriasis, acne, dry skin, contact dermatitis, moles, warts, fungal infections, and skin cancer are some of the most common skin problems.

When should I see a skin doctor?

You should see a dermatologist right away if you have any spots on your skin that grow, change in size or colour, itch, bleed, or won’t heal.

Skin cancer is treated by dermatologists? How is it dealt with?

Yes. The kind of treatment that is needed will depend on the type of cancer. The amount of your surgery if you have a basal cell tumour will depend on your age, general health, the type, location, size, and depth of your tumour. Basal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and squamous cell carcinoma are often removed through surgery.

What does psoriasis mean?

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that causes red, scaly plaques to form on the skin, most often on the knees and elbows.

What is the cause of acne?

In acne, the hair follicle gets red and swollen. Skin type, genes, hormones, the amount of oil made by the sebaceous glands, and other factors are often to blame.

How do I know if a growth on my skin is dangerous?

Learn about your skin’s characteristics, including your unique pattern of moles, freckles, and beauty marks. Make sure to check your whole body every two months or so. Keep an eye out for variations in the quantity, scope, form, and hue of the pigmented patches. Changes in a mole’s surface, scaliness, bleeding, or the appearance of a new bump, as well as the spread of a mole’s colour into the skin around it and a change in how it feels, are all things to look out for (i.e., itchiness, tenderness, pain). If you notice any changes, you should see a dermatologist right away.
