When should we consult a dermatologist?
Dermatology is a branch of medicine that studies the physiological function, structure, and diseases of the skin.
Dermatologist diagnoses, treats, and prevents skin, hair, and nail diseases.
Dermatology is closely related to other medical disciplines (venerology, allergology, endocrinology and others).
Often people do not know that they need to consult a dermatologist, because some dermatological diseases are so mild that they may not even notice them. That is why regular skin condition checks are the best solution.
It is recommended to consult a dermatologist if you notice the following symptoms:
- Severe acne;
- Inflammation - swollen, red skin that causes itching;
- Dry skin;
- The size, color, shape of the mole or growth has changed;
- Excessive hair loss;
- Varicose veins;
- Scar, mixed;
- Skin or nail infection;
- Any unusual, suspicious symptoms on the skin.
