What Are The Root Causes Of Skin Diseases?
Certain variables in one's daily life might contribute to developing a skin condition. Additionally, underlying medical issues may have an impact on your skin. The following are some of the most common causes of skin diseases:
- Infection caused by bacteria trapped in your pores or hair follicles

What Are The Signs And Symptoms Of Skin Conditions?
The signs and symptoms of skin illness differ substantially based on your condition. For example, if you wear too-tight shoes, you may get a blister. However, when skin changes appear without a recognised reason, they may be related to an underlying ailment.
In general, skin illnesses might result in the following symptoms:
- Skin discolouration in the form of patches (abnormal pigmentation).
- Skin that is parched.
- Sores, lesions, or ulcers that are open.
- Skin that is peeling.
- Rashes, possibly accompanied by itching or discomfort.
- Bulbs that are red, white, or pus-filled.
- Skin that is scaly or rough.
What Is The Procedure For Diagnosing A Skin Disease?
We have top dermatologists in India to identify various skin conditions simply by inspecting the skin’s affected area. If glancing at your skin does not provide precise results, we will delve deeper into the matter and recommend certain tests such as the following:
1. Biopsy - It is necessary to perform a biopsy to examine a tiny skin sample under a microscope.
2. Black-light Examination - A black-light examination (also known as a wood light examination) is a procedure in which ultraviolet (UV) light is used to see your skin's pigmentation more clearly.
3. Diascopy - Diascopy is the process of rubbing a microscope slide on a skin patch to examine whether the colour of the skin changes.
4. Dermoscopy - Dermoscopy is a method of diagnosing skin lesions that use hand-held equipment.
5. Tzanck Test - The Tzanck test, which involves evaluating the fluid from a blister to determine if the patient has herpes simplex or herpes zoster, is performed.
