Acne is a frequent skin condition where the hair follicles present under the skin become clogged with oil, dead skin cells, or bacteria. It is an inflammatory disorder of the skin, where the sebaceous or oil glands that connect to the hair follicle cause pimples and whiteheads. It primarily affects the face but can also affect the chest and shoulders

These are noncancerous (benign) rough bumps that develop on the skin. They occurred due to the presence of HPV (human papillomavirus) at the skin break (cuts) and started infecting the person. It is contagious and directly spreads via direct contact (person to person, person to things). Children are more prone to have this disease as they get a lot of skin breaks. 

Atopic dermatitis (AD), a kind of eczema, is the most prevalent chronic inflammatory skin disease, which is caused by environmental and genetic factors that lead to abnormalities in the epidermis and the immune system. It is characterised by itchy, inflamed, and dry skin. It affects any age, but it is most common in children.

This is an autoimmune disease, where the body's immune system fights against its hair follicles, leading to the development of alopecia areata. When the body's immune system attacks a hair follicle, the hair linked to that particular area will fall out, leading to hair fall. Commonly, those who suffer from alopecia areata will see a bald spot on their scalp that is circular or oval in shape. 

This skin disorder occurs when something comes into contact with the skin, either by irritating it or triggering an allergic reaction. Itching is generally the first symptom, followed by a rash. Blisters are also a possibility. Contact dermatitis can be one of two forms. 

• Irritant contact dermatitis occurs by irritating the skin.
• Allergic contact dermatitis caused by eliciting an immune response 

It is a common, non-contagious, and non-serious scalp condition characterised by the flaking off of dry skin on the scalp in tiny flakes.

Dermatitis refers to any skin inflammation or irritation which are non-contagious. It often manifests as a rash or itchy, dry skin and can be caused by many factors. It could also lead to skin problems like blistering, oozing, crusting, or flaking. Atopic (eczema), seborrheic, and contact dermatitis are the three most frequent forms of this illness.

A group of conditions that cause inflamed, irritated, and often itchy skin, such as atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, or stasis dermatitis.

It is a common and usually harmless condition of the skin that occurs when the hair follicle becomes infected or inflamed, resulting in a pustule (pus-filled, inflamed small blister-like lesions) or erythematous papule of the skin covered with overlying hair. Bacteria is the root cause of this infection, either at the surface or the base of the hair follicle. However, fungi, viruses, and non-infectious causes all exist for this illness.  

It is a viral infection characterised by cold sores and blisters associated with fever. The type 1 herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) causes most cold sores. It occurs in an infant or child. This virus is contagious and can be passed from person to person by direct skin contact with an infected adult.

Psoriasis is a skin disorder associated with chronic inflammation and cell proliferation. Erythematous plaques covered in silvery scales are characteristic of this condition. They are most prominent on the extensor surfaces (skin surface present outside of a joint), scalp, and lumbosacral area. Based on the occurrence of psoriasis before and after the age of 40 years, it is classified into type 1 (<40 years) and type 2(>40 years).  The cause for this condition is unknown, but it is considered to be a T-lymphocyte-mediated autoimmune disease.

It is a contagious fungal infection of the skin caused by parasites (Tinea corporis) that dwell on the outer layer of the skin cell, causing an itchy, circular rash in the form of a ring. It can transfer from person to person, animal to person, object to person and soil to person  contacts.

It is an abnormal skin pigmentation or texture change that develops from various skin inflammations. Eczema, lichen planus, granuloma annulare and pityriasis rosea are some rashes that can affect the skin.

It is an acute, self-limiting papulosquamous skin disorder of unknown cause, characterised by a herald patch (in some cases) followed by scaly oval patches on the skin (chest, abdomen, face and back) within two weeks. It is also known as pityriasis circinata, roseola annulata, and herpes tonsurans maculosus. This illness occurs most commonly between the ages of 10 and 35. Pregnant women are at high risk. 

Mole is a typical skin growth that appears as small, dark brown spots caused by a cluster of pigment-forming cells called melanocytes. Moles are common, and most people have between ten and forty of them by the time they reach adulthood. The likelihood of developing a mole to cancer is very rare.

Keratosis pilaris is a frequent skin disease that appears as small skin bumps. These bumps are caused by clogging skin pores through dead skin cells, often in the upper arms and thighs. In children, these are observed on their cheeks. 

It is a frequent skin infections in children, caused by an infectious bacterium. Impetigo is commonly spread by direct skin contact with an infected person. The common symptoms of this condition are blisters and crusts. This highly contagious skin condition typically strikes children between 2 and 5 years of age. Impetigo, though, can affect anyone. The adult might be infected by a child.

It is also called urticaria, which is a skin reaction that causes elevated patches, bumps or both on the skin. These are frequently itchy and appear swollen. The histamine release and other chemicals from the body as a part of immune reaction generally cause hives.

Nummular dermatitis, also called nummular eczema, or discoid eczema, is a chronic condition which causes coin-shaped patches on the skin. These patches are itchy and can either exude a clear fluid or become dry and crusty. Many causes contribute to nummular dermatitis, such as skin injuries like burns, insect bites etc.

Perioral dermatitis is characterised by a rash around the mouth that looks like acne. The exact origins of this rash are unknown. It could be due to the use of a skincare product or something allergic coming into contact with the skin. 

As the body repairs the wound, it often leaves behind a scar. The body generates new tissue to patch up injured skin and fill missing areas. Scars can be any size or shape. They can develop as a response to trauma, surgery, acne, or disease. Most scars disappear after a while. Scars might fade with treatment over time.

Stretch marks are indented streaks that can form anywhere on the body, including the stomach, breasts, hips, and buttocks. These marks are more prevalent in pregnant women during the third trimester. Because they are neither uncomfortable nor dangerous, stretch marks don’t require any treatment.

Fungal nail infection, often known as onychomycosis, is a common condition that affects the nails and, in some cases, the skin around them. Infections are usually asymptomatic and spread by walking barefoot over a moist area where an infected person walks. Dermatophytes (tinea unguium), yeasts, and non-dermatophyte moulds are the possible causative agents.

Syphilis is caused by a bacterial infection (Treponema pallidum) and is transmitted through sexual intercourse. The presence of a painless sore is the primary sign of disease, most often in the mouth, genitalia, or rectum. Syphilis can be transferred from person to person by direct contact with these open wounds or through mucosal membranes. The syphilis germs can lie dormant in the body for decades after the first infection. 

Sarcoidosis is a disease characterised by forming granulomas, which are small collections of inflammatory cells. When sarcoidosis affects the skin, it can result in over 20 lesions. The cause is unknown, but researchers believe it is due to the body's immune system fighting against an unknown substance. A few studies show that, in genetically predisposed people , agents that cause infection, exposure to substances like dust and chemicals and a potential abnormal reaction to the body's own proteins could be responsible for forming granulomas.

It is a painful and nonfatal viral infection that develops a rash caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Shingles can appear anywhere on the body.

It is the most frequent form of cancer worldwide. Abnormal growth of skin cells most commonly arises on sun-exposed skin. The most frequent types of skin cancer are melanoma and non-melanoma (basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma). Persons having white skin and chronic exposure to ultraviolet B are the most prominent risk factors for skin cancer.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most prevalent kind of skin cancer, beginning in the squamous cells that line the dermis and the epidermis. Cancer of the squamous cells, which can occur on the skin, is typically not fatal but can be aggressive. Sunlight and tanning beds or lamps account for the vast majority of cases of SCC. 

Stasis dermatitis, also called venous eczema or gravitational dermatitis, occurs due to venous insufficiency or inadequate circulation in the lower legs. This condition develops when the valves in the leg veins that direct blood back to the heart become damaged and allow blood to seep backwards. This causes the lower legs to collect fluids and blood cells. 

It is  a papulosquamous condition that affects sebum-rich areas of the scalp, trunk, and face. It is also caused by a fungal infection named Malassezia (which normally exists in the healthy skin flora after birth) and abnormalities in the immune system.

Vitiligo is a common acquired skin disorder characterised by loss of skin colour in patches due to loss of melanocytes from the epidermis. The exact reason is unknown, while some researchers believe it is caused by an autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system attacks the cells that produce melanin, which produces skin colour and stops functioning.
