Skin Diseases Disorders
There are so many skin diseases that are known to afflict both human beings and other animals today. Most of these are not skin diseases per se but are just symptoms of other deadly diseases for example parasitism while other skin ailments occur on their own, like rabies.

They cause a lot of discomfort especially when they appear on sensitive areas such as the face. The good news though is that they are not only completely curable but also relatively easy to cure.

The most common skin diseases are the pimples and the blotches. These may occur on any part of the body though they are most prominent on the face, neck; chest and back. Pimples are more prevalent in boys during puberty stage than in girls. This can be attributed to different factors including increased appetite which means no restriction on the intake of fats.

Another common skin ailment apart from pimple is acne. This is a chronic inflammatory disease which is characterized by an imbalance of lesions in the skin. They could be minute or large and disfiguring. Normally, the size of the lesion is small red or dark red pinhead or papules the size of the pea. They cause the skin to appear greasy, thick and untidy. Oftentimes, pus and sebaceous stuff can be seen from the lesions. When these lesions reach a certain point, they may erupt and at the same time some form, mature and heal. These are usually disfiguring and irksome, but they can completely be removed. However, the scars left are not easily removed.

Another of the known skin conditions that affect people most commonly is eczema. It is also an inflammatory condition of the skin which appears on any part of the body and is more or less chronic. It is characterized by intense itching and irritation which results to the surface or the skin being either moist or dry.

One of the causes of the skin conditions named above is a general or systematic toxemia. This is as a result of constipation which alternates with diarrhea. Sometimes, there is just normal frequency of the stool but which is extremely foul. This is because the blood stream has absorbed a lot of foul elements which must be released.

Another cause of the lesions is the irregularity of the menstrual condition. Also, hygienic conditions, especially in dirty or dusty environs cause skin conditions.
