2. Eczema

Atopic dermatitis (eczema) is a condition that makes your skin red and itchy. It's common in children but can occur at any age. Atopic dermatitis is long lasting (chronic) and tends to flare periodically. It may be accompanied by asthma or hay fever.

Seborrheic dermatitis is a common skin condition that mainly affects your scalp. It causes scaly patches, red skin and stubborn dandruff. Seborrheic dermatitis can also affect oily areas of the body, such as the face, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids and chest.

Seborrheic dermatitis may go away without treatment. Or you may need many repeated treatments before the symptoms go away. And they may return later. Daily cleansing with a gentle soap and shampoo can help reduce oiliness and dead skin buildup.

It is also called dandruff, seborrheic eczema and seborrheic psoriasis. For infants, the condition is known as cradle cap and causes crusty, scaly patches on the scalp.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, one million people are diagnosed with skin cancer annually, and 1 in 5 Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime.Genetics play more of a role in basal cell and melanoma than in squamous cell, which is due to sun exposure.

It first appears on the elbows and knees, but can spread to other parts of the limbs and even the trunk. Certain forms affect particular areas like the hands, scalp or the joints.

Causes Of Skin Problems

Skin diseases is an umbrella term, so there are different type of abnormalities which are a result of various internal and external factors. Some of them are mentioned below-

  • An itchy rash on the face is probably due to eczema.
  • In a male a rash in the groin is probably fungal.
  • Rashes confined to the feet, either between the toes or arising on one foot or in an asymmetrical pattern, are probably fungal.
  • If other members of the family are itching, you may have scabies.
  • If your very dry skin starts to itch and burn you probably have a superimposed eczema.
  • A rash that comes and goes and erupts in different areas of the skin each time is urticaria (nettle rash, hives).
  • Most itchy rashes can to some extent be relieved by the use of emollients. Ointments and creams penetrate the skin better when it is hydrated (moist).
  • Urticaria requires antihistamines by mouth.
