Skin Disorders

There is no way to prevent psoriasis really. With a few changes in your lifestyle you can prevent/reduce the recurring psoriasis flares.

Obesity is linked to psoriasis as it is to many other health dangers.

The symptoms show on the psoriasis patients skin, but if the psoriasis causes are on skin, the symptoms on skin disappear, the disease should be cured. But we have tried some treatments and medication on the skin, but the disease still occur again and again. So the causes are not on skin, but in the other parts of your body.

Hello,

I see you are asking "What is atopic dermatitis?"

Atopic eczema (atopic dermatitis) is the most common form of eczema, a condition that causes the skin to become itchy, dry, and cracked. Atopic eczema is more common in children, often developing before their first birthday. But it may also develop for the first time in adults.

Actually the question is more appropriately styled. Can stress cause acne or does acne cause stress. I happen to be a believer in the former. But that's the debate isn't it. I don't think there is any question that stress causes the body to undergo hormonal changes that can affect many bodily functions.

but stress may cause a bit of acne if you wanted to try something different just try to relax

I am not really sure if this effective for acne and acne scars.

Who says you can't? Just joking. Your skin after rhinoplasty is very sensitive and getting sunburned is an easy job... Because your skin is so sensitive, sunburns might leave scars and other unwanted stuff.

Yes, it is currently one of the more competitive fields to enter after medical school. It requires good grades in medical school as well as very high scores on the board exams that medical students have to take. Hope this helps! Dr. B. Come to Canada! We could use a lot more in Dermatology. If you want to remain in the U.S., then look at other options. One part of the Medical system (doctors are short in this) is Geriatrics (working with the elderly) because many med students don't feel it's a challenging enough job and we have a famous doctor in Canada who is teaching students that want to become doctors that indeed it's not only a great job, but rewarding. The idea of the elderly is that some of the young going into be a doctor will think "Oh well, they're just dying anyway." Ask any Coroner and they can tell you that you can learn more from the dead than the living. You could perhaps go into the scientific studies of Dermatology. Ask around and find out what your options are.

I have been looking for an answer to this question for SOME time. I got mine about 7 years ago..they keep changing shapes/and how many I have...not I am noticiing that they are on my palms.

Been to more than 5 dermatologists. they cant figure it out. Everyone keeps tellin me I have syphllis. I do not. I have been tested EVERY time..and it is not syphillis. at first when it was just the bottom of my feet, I wasn't that upset..although it is very embarrasing!! Now my palms?

I am mortified. cuz people just assume that you are dirty.

--- Arsenic poisoning or pollution is pretty rare ... has that been considered? Or parasites, but the dermotologist should have spotted that.

Oh yea, lets see.... Ticks can go pretty deep in the skin. They can get in your hair and go pretty deep into your scalp, but not so deep to where you can't get it out. Good enough? That's about all I know. I'm not an expert. Haha. :)

Every guinea pig gets dandruff. You can make sure that goes away by purchasing a special shampoo for guinea pigs. Make sure not to pick up a pregnant guinea pig as that could hurt one of it's litter

It could mean a number of things. It could be a yeast infection, staph infection, an insect bite or allergy to the insect. Or it could be from other allergies, as well as a number of other causes. You need to take the dog to the vet ASAP to have him diagnosed and treated, and not let him possibly get worse, or suffer in discomfort.

This could be anything from an allergic reaction to a skin infection to cancer - a veterinarian would be able to examine your dog and give you a much more definitive answer. You should make an appointment shortly.

This probably isn't dandruff, it's most likely to be mites, if your guinea pigs have scabs on their skin, i reckon it could be. Take it to the vets for a professional opinion and they will give you some treatment for it.

Did you wash her with flea shampoo? This can cause dry skin and dandruff with piggies.

could be scurf, trademark sign of a few conditions, it is best to take your guinea to the vet if there is a problem they will give you a special shampoo or some ivermectin to treat it and it should clear up in a few weeks

Westies are susceptible to the same environmental affectors as we are. Therefore, keep in mind that certain weeds in the yard can affect your Westie as well as indoor things like mold and mildew. Do not wash your Westie too often as this can cause skin irritation. In extreme cases of discomfort, consult with your vet immediately. A good vet can prescribe a simple skin cream to help your Westie, or even an oral medication. Your Westie will reward you with years of love and appreciation.

In some cases, not all animals have dandruff, because some of them are not mammals. DANDRUFF CANNOT BE BUILT IN WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE FUR.

So, the answer to your question is, NO, not all of them.

Think about a leach as a mosquito. As you know, both leaches and mosquitoes suck blood but what you probably didn't know was that a mosquito injects a disease into your leg when it bites. Now, usually right when you feel it bite you shoo it away. If you would leave it alone it would then suck out the disease that makes you itch. Leaches are the exact same way however their process is much much, much slower!

Shih Tzus have extremely sensitive skin. Try soaking your Shih Tzu's feet in epson salt and water. It should relieve the itchy skin. Also, there are certain shampoos that help with sensitive skin.

Give the dog a tablespoon of plain yogurt each day. The yeasty rash will go away.

Yes and no, the female mites may be visible as tiny white dots. The male body lice however are about half the size, and cannot be seen.

Dander or dandruff is typically dried flaking skin cells that are visible on the cat's hair; dark-furred cats are more likely to show this than light-furred cats because the light colored dander stands out against the dark fur.

Your veterinarian can help you figure out what is causing the dander, but in general shampooing your cat will only make it worse by drying the skin out further and creating more dander. However, if the dander isn't severe, you can try gently combing out your cat's fur and wiping the existing dander off with a clean cloth.

Salmon oil and Evening Primrose oil are two oils that a cat can benefit greatly from. You can also add a weekly treat of oily fish such as sardines or mackerel (best in spring water), or even scraps of plain fatty meat (such as skin from a chicken) either raw or cooked, depending on what your cat prefers.

Salmon oil contains omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. It is the omega 3 fatty acids that are so valuable in salmon oil. Salmon oil helps improve coat and skin quality and lubricate joints, which an elderly cat may benefit greatly from. It is advisable to use this instead of Cod Liver oil, as this contains a high level of Vitamin A which a cat can overdose on if fed too much.

Evening Primrose oil also contains vitamins and fatty acids that promote healthy supple skin and soft, glossy fur much like Salmon oil.

Both these oils can be found in most health shops and can be added to the cat's meal a couple of times a week. Only a few drops are needed each time.

Pure fat. My dad has one under his left armpit.

Depends whether you're male or female.

But close observation for any changes need to be maintained and reported to doctor. Any pain or discharge will be cause for checking for cancer.

In case you're a woman needs to be checked for cancer anyway

Because of the venom that has been injected in your skin.
