Skin disorders vary greatly in symptoms and severity.
They can be temporary or permanent, and may cause pain or can be painless.
Some have situational causes, while others may be genetic.
Some skin conditions are minor, and others can be fatal.
While most skin disorders are minor, others can indicate a more
serious issue. Contact your doctor if you think you might have one of these
common skin problems.
Few Examples are given below:
Hives, also known as urticaria, are itchy, raised welts that are found on the skin.
They are usually red, pink, or flesh-colored, and sometimes they sting or hurt.
In most cases, hives are caused by an allergic reaction to a medication or food
or a reaction to an irritant in the environment. Most rashes go away on their own
while in the other cases can be treated by proper medications.
Eczema, also called atopic dermatitis, is a common skin condition marked by
itchy and inflamed patches of skin. It’s often seen in babies and young children,
appearing on the faces of infants. But eczema can come in a variety of types in
children, teens, and adults. Read on to learn what causes the skin condition
and how to treat its symptoms.
Rubeola (measles) is an infection caused by a virus that grows in the cells
lining the throat and lungs. It’s a very contagious disease that spreads
through the air whenever someone who is infected coughs or sneezes. People
who catch the measles develop symptoms such as a fever, cough, and runny nose.
A telltale rash is the hallmark of the disease. If measles isn’t treated, it
can lead to complications such as ear infection, pneumonia, and encephalitis
(inflammation of the brain).
