Dermatological conditions we treat

Dermatological conditions we treat

Acne

Acne is a common skin condition causing whiteheads, blackheads and pimples due to hair follicles in the skin getting plugged with oil and dead cells. Treatment options include medication and injections for breakout control.

Cellulitis Symptoms

Cellulitis, a bacterial skin infection, manifests various symptoms indicative of its presence. Initially, the affected skin appears red, swollen, and tender to the touch. As the infection progresses, warmth and a sensation of tightness may accompany these symptoms. Patients often report pain or discomfort in the affected area, sometimes exacerbated by movement or pressure. In severe cases, fever, chills, and fatigue can develop, indicating systemic involvement. It's crucial to seek medical attention promptly upon noticing these signs, as untreated cellulitis can lead to complications such as abscess formation or bloodstream infection. Timely diagnosis and treatment are essential for effective management and prevention of further complications.

Mycoses

Mycoses, fungal infections that invade various tissues in the human body, present a complex challenge to medical professionals worldwide. Ranging from superficial infections like athlete's foot to life-threatening systemic conditions, mycoses thrive in diverse environments. Opportunistic fungi exploit weakened immune systems, causing infections in immunocompromised individuals. Candida species, for instance, commonly affect mucous membranes, while Aspergillus species pose a significant risk in patients with impaired lung function. Diagnosis often relies on microscopy, culture, or molecular techniques, with treatment typically involving antifungal medications. Despite advances, mycoses remain a significant global health concern, necessitating ongoing research and vigilant management strategies.

Allergies

An allergy is a condition in which your immune system reacts abnormally to a foreign substance such as pollens, certain food products and pet danders. Allergies affect everyone differently and cause mild to severe reactions. Treatment is offered based on the type of allergens and overall health.

Skin infections

When different bacterias, viruses, fungi or parasites infect your skin leading to troubling symptoms such as redness, itching and swelling, this condition is known as a skin infection. These include abscess, cellulitis, ringworm and warts. Treatment depends on the symptoms & type of infection.

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a potentially deadly disease that develops when skin cells undergo malignant transformation due to prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. It manifests in various forms including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, the deadliest type. Early detection is crucial for successful treatment. Prevention involves minimising sun exposure, wearing protective clothing, and using sunscreen. Regular skin checks and prompt medical attention for suspicious moles or lesions are essential. Despite advancements in treatment, skin cancer remains a significant public health concern, emphasising the importance of sun safety practices.

Vasculitis

Vasculitis is a complex medical condition characterised by inflammation of blood vessels. It can affect any part of the body, from large arteries to tiny capillaries. Symptoms vary depending on the organs involved but commonly include fever, fatigue, weight loss, and organ-specific symptoms like skin rashes, joint pain, or nerve damage. The exact cause of vasculitis remains unclear, though it's often associated with autoimmune disorders, infections, or drug reactions. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, imaging tests, and sometimes biopsy. Treatment aims to suppress inflammation, relieve symptoms, and prevent complications, often requiring a multidisciplinary approach involving rheumatologists, immunologists, and other specialists.

Eczema

Eczema or atopic dermatitis is a chronic condition that causes inflammation of the skin. It is characterised by redness, itching, skin dryness, raised bumps and scaly skin. Eczema can occur at any age but is fairly common in children. It is treated with the use of creams and medicines.

Hair loss

Hair loss is a common hair problem that can affect anyone at any age. It can be triggered by hereditary reasons, hormonal problems, health issues or increasing age. Management is based on the severity and cause of the condition & includes medicines and laser therapy.

Vitiligo

Vitiligo is a skin condition in which white patches develop unevenly over your skin. It is usually caused as a result of autoimmune conditions, exposure to chemicals and skin damage. It is treated with the help of medications and phototherapy to lighten the effect of white patches.
