Skin Diseases

Skin diseases, also known as dermatological disorders or dermatoses, encompass a wide range of conditions that affect the skin. These can vary greatly in terms of their causes, symptoms, severity, and treatment options. Some common types of skin diseases include:

1. Eczema (Dermatitis): Characterized by inflammation of the skin, leading to itching, redness, and sometimes blistering.
2. Psoriasis: An autoimmune condition that results in rapid skin cell turnover, leading to thick, red patches with silvery scales.
3. Acne: A common skin condition involving the hair follicles and oil glands, causing pimples and sometimes deeper cysts.
