The dermatological examination aims to identify dermatological diseases and treat them.

There are dermatologic diseases that may have no symptoms that bother the patient (e.g., pain or itching), while others, on the contrary, are characterized by itchy irritations that are very bothersome and thus are immediately detected.

What is common to almost every condition that a dermatologist deals with is the fact that as early as the visual examination, lesions and changes such as a spot, a furuncle, a boil, a mole of an unusual color or shape, an abnormal reddening of the skin can be discovered.

The most frequent dermatological conditions found are:

ORTICARIA

Itchy rash with presence of pomphi.

PSORIASIS

Chronic and relapsing irritation characterized by red erythema with white scales.

DERMATIS. (ATOPIC, CONTACT, SEBORRHEIC)

It is generally an inflammation of the skin due to internal or external factors.
Atopic dermatitis is redness with blisters that occurs in areas most prone to moisture such as in the creases of the elbows, knees, and neck;
Contact dermatitis is found when touching irritants, stingers, poisons;
Seborrheic dermatitis is typical of the scalp and is characterized by significant scaling.

ACNE

Inflammation affecting hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

CANDIDOSIS

Infection caused by the fungus Candida Albicans that primarily affects the female genital mucous membranes.

VERRUCHE

Benign skin formations caused by HPV, the human papilloma virus.

VITILIGINE

Chronic noncontagious disease that affects melanocytes giving rise to white patches on the skin.

SKIN TUMORS

They can be benign tumors or malignant tumors such as melanomas and epitheliomas.

How is the dermatological examination conducted at Airam Medical Center?

The dermatologic examination at our Private Medical Center always begins with the history phase. Just as with any other type of examination, the physician must obtain from the patient all important information regarding the disorder he or she is manifesting and that which describes his or her lifestyle.

Every element may be important, so those who are in front of the dermatologist should communicate what they feel, when the lesion or disorder appeared, if there are associated pathologies, if they have noticed changes. He must also answer questions regarding his diet, smoking habit, physical activity, alcohol consumption, medication use, and other conditions from which he may suffer.

Equally important are the psychological and emotional aspects the person is in. All modern medicine, particularly dermatology, also takes such aspects into consideration, because they can be crucial for correct diagnosis

After taking a comprehensive history, the dermatologist moves on to an objective examination of the skin lesion that the patient has noticed or that is causing him or her discomfort, itching, or pain. Further diagnostic investigation through blood tests, biopsy, allergy tests may be required if necessary.

Only once all concerns have been resolved does the dermatologist make his or her diagnosis and describe to the patient what course of treatment will be necessary for healing.
