There are a number of skin problems that plague us throughout the years. Knowing how to identify the problem is, in many cases, half the battle. So let’s take some time to define some of the more common skin problems:
Acne - Acne begins when pores get clogged, by sweat, dirt, or ingrown hairs. Small pores become whiteheads, and the larger ones with the dark center are blackheads. Cystic acne is when the swelling forms below the skin…usually the skin over them is inflamed and often gets infected. While teenagers suffer the most from acne, some 20% of adults will have it, too. Acne most often shows up on the face, but you can also have outbreaks on the neck, back, shoulders, and chest. Even the upper arms and scalp can be affected, though this is less frequent.

Rosacea - Consists of flushing, facial redness, bumps on the surface of the face that may be either papules or pustules, and red lines caused by blood vessels that have enlarged. At times it may feel like a light sunburn, causing stinging when you squint, smile or frown. Cleansers, lotions, and cosmetics may exacerbate the problem. In extreme cases the nose will become bulbous.
Psoriasis - Red or inflamed skin, usually covered with loose whitish scales of dried skin. Often itch y and painful, they may also crack and bleed. It can also affect the nails of both hands and feet, causing discoloration and pitting as well as detachment from the nail bed. Most frequently found on the scalp, elbows, knees, heels, and hands and feet, it can also cause psoriatic arthritis, causing pain and swelling in the joints.
Eczema - Most frequently found in children (though adults do get it), the symptoms are inflammation, and itchy, red, dry skin. The most common for of eczema is atopic dermatitis.

Sunburn is a skin problem that is underrated and too often left untreated. While uncomplicated, mild sunburn will only show minor redness, discomfort, and irritation, the more advanced cases can cause shock, extreme pain, and even death.In severe cases there may be severe burns, blisters, dehydration, electrolyte loss, infection, chills, fever, vomiting, peeling, and sun poisoning, which will eliminate your ability to sunbathe ever again.
