DISEASE SKIN RASH: THE MOST COMMON SKIN AILMENT
In
an anatomical and dermatological sense, skin is the largest organ, which is
made up of many layers of epethilial tissue which in turn protects the internal
organs and provides a means to control the body temperature. The skin also
prevents pathogens from reaching the internal organs.
But
as the skin is continuously exposed to pathogens and allergens, at times it
succumbs to their effect. The most common type of skin disease is skin rash. A
rash appears as a change in the color, appearance and texture of the skin. A
rash can be either localized or spread all over the body. Rashes can cause the
skin to discolor, itch, with an abnormal change in temperature, become bumpy,
dry up excessively, get cracked or blistered.
There
are many causes for the occurrence of skin rash depending on what the skin has
been exposed to, hereditary tendencies etc. Accordingly the treatments also
vary accordingly. Some of the diseases which include skin rash as a symptom are
Lyme disease, Erythematic chromium migrans, Morgellons, Crohn's disease,
