What is Dermatovenereology?

Dermatology

Dermatology is the branch of medical science that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of skin diseases, its appendages (hair, nails) and adjoining mucous membrane (mouth, genital).

Venereology

Venereology is the branch of medical science that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases (STD) also called "venereal diseases".

Dermato-venerology is a branch of dermatology which deals with the study of sexually transmitted diseases whose consequences give birth to skin diseases. Venereology and dermatology can be studied together as in most of the sexually transmitted diseases the foremost symptom appears on the skin. Bacteria, virus, and parasites are the major causative agents for venerel diseases.

• HIV infection, syphilis, gonorrhea, candidiasis, herpes simplex, human papillomavirus
• Sexually transmitted infections: chancroid, lymphogranuloma venereum, granuloma inguinale, hepatitis B, and cytomegalovirus infection

Psychodermatology: Where the Skin and the Mind Interact

Hi there, Psychodermatology is a relatively new discipline in psychosomatic medicine. It is the interaction between the mind and the skin.

Let’s learn more about it!

Dermatology is focused on the “external” visible disease

Psychiatry is more focused on the “internal” nonvisible disease

For dermatologists, it is easy to identify the psoriasis patient with psoriatic arthritis, the patient with alopecia receiving chemotherapy for her breast cancer, and the patient on dialysis with uremic pruritus. Conversely, the patient with the bugs crawling under his skin, the itchy elderly widower and the depressed acne patient become more of a challenge.

One-third of all patients in dermatology have emotional disorders. The understanding of the relationship between the psyche and the skin is complex, fascinating, and one that puzzles many physicians.

Psychodermatology has emerged as a new subspecialty of dermatology and psychiatry

Psychodermatological disorders can be classified into the following four different categories:

• Psychophysiological Disorders

These are true dermatological disorders that became worse with emotional stress.

Example: Psoriasis

• Primary Psychiatric Disorders

These are not exactly dermatological disorder but have serious psychopathy. These are self-induced cutaneous manifestations

Example: Delusions of Parasitosis

• Secondary Psychiatric Disorders

These are the psychological disorders that patients develop in response to their dermatologic disease.

Skin disorders result in psychological problems such as decreased self-esteem, depression, or social phobia

Example: Acne

• Cutaneous Sensory Disorders

Often may present with or without psychiatric disturbances, but depression and anxiety are the most common comorbid conditions

To date, we still do not know enough about how to deal with this issue, although ironically this is the most important and practical question.

It’s Summer!! Are you at RISK?

Summer is the hottest of the four seasons. Who cares, its vacation time. Are you planning to hit the beach to get yourself tanned? Then, this blog is for you!

Summer isn't a good time for your skin. We all know that the sun gives us heat and light. Do you know what else it gives?

CANCER!!

Shocked! Let’s see in detail!

First will understand the UVA and UVB differences:

UVA light has a longer wave that penetrates the thickest layer of skin, called the dermis. Unprotected exposure to UVA rays can lead to skin aging, wrinkles, and a suppressed immune system.

UVB rays have a shorter wave. It causes sunburn and also responsible to cause Skin cancer.

So UVB is the culprit. He is responsible for SKIN CANCER!

(OMG! I already exposed so much…Do I Have Skin Cancer?)

If you have any of the below symptoms don’t wait to consult a DERMATOLOGIST!

• Smooth and pearly skin
• Appear as a firm, red lump or may look sunken in the middle
• Appear as a pearly brown or black lump if you have darker skin
• Itchy feeling which bleeds easily
• Develops a crust or scab
• Begin to heal but never completely heal
• Look like a flat, red spot that is scaly and crusty

Prevention is better than cure. Here comes the tip session to avoid SKIN CANCER:

• Seek the shade, particularly between 10 am and 4 pm
• Don’t get too sunburnt
• Avoid tanning and never use UV tanning beds
• Cover up with clothing including a broad-brimmed hat and UV-blocking sunglasses
• Apply 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) of sunscreen to the entire body 30 minutes before going outside and reapply every two hours after swimming or excessive sweating
• Keep new-born and babies out of the sun
• Examine your skin head-to-toe every month
• See a dermatologist at least once a year

Take care of your skin and health…Have a happy Summer!!

11 Myths and Facts That Nobody Told You About Sunscreen!

There are some common myths surrounding sunblock that people should be aware of before buying the sunscreen.

Understanding the fact about sunscreen can support people to use sunscreen properly.

UVA vs UVB

UVA light has a longer wave that penetrates the thickest layer of skin, called the dermis. Unprotected exposure to UVA rays can lead to skin aging, wrinkles, and a suppressed immune system.

UVB rays have a shorter wave. It causes sunburn and also responsible to cause Skin cancer.

Here are the 11 common misunderstandings about sunscreen!

1.         Sunscreen is not always necessary

Many people believe that sunscreen is not necessary when they are not exposed to sunlight too much and it's cloudy. The truth is that anytime the body is exposed to light from the sun, it is exposed to UV rays and causes sun damage. It is best to cover the exposed skin with sunscreen and use a hat or scarf to protect your skin.

2.         Sunscreen will avoid the body from retaining vitamin D

Calcium is one of the building blocks of bone. Vitamin D helps the body to absorb calcium. Vitamin D also has a role in the nerve, muscle, and immune systems. After exposure to sunlight, our body forms vitamin D naturally.

People believe that using sunscreen would prevent a person from getting the proper levels of vitamin D. However, sunscreens lose their effectiveness over time, and it is likely a person will forget to put sunscreen on every time they see the sun. Hence sunscreen won’t prevent the body from absorbing Vitamin D. Scientists and dermatologists suggest that at least 5 to 30 minutes of sun exposure per day can create the proper amount of vitamin D in the body.

3.         People with dark skin don’t need sunscreen

Some people believe that people with dark skin do not need sunscreen because they have more melanin which diffuses UVB rays and protects their skin. Wait...what about UVA? UVA cannot be blocked by Melanin which means even dark skin people need sunscreen to protect their skin from UVA rays which is responsible to cause skin cancer.

4.         Sunscreen causes health problems

This myth is because of Oxybenzone, one of the active ingredients in sunscreen. Researchers exposed rats to oxybenzone which results in a serious negative side effect. Later they said the level of exposure was high that’s why it caused health issues in rats.

Their calculations demonstrated that these results were unattainable in humans even those who use sunscreen on a regular basis. There are no published researchers which demonstrate the toxic effect of sunscreen in Humans.

5.         Sunscreen never expires

Some believe that sunscreen never expires. The active ingredients in sunscreen will breakdown over time. Using the expired one is of no use; it won’t protect the skin.

6.         Sunscreen is waterproof

Sunscreen labelled as water-resistant maybe appear like waterproof. But the fact is no sunscreen is 100% waterproof.

7.         One application of sunscreen lasts all-day

Many people think that sunscreen will protect their skin all day, but the fact is screen breaks down when it is exposed to sunlight. It will last only for 2-4 hours.

8.         All sunscreens are the same

People misunderstand that all the sunscreens are the same, and they will do the same job. There are different ingredients used in different sunscreens. Their protection level varies. The important consideration is SPF (Sun Protection Factor).

9.         You cannot tan while wearing sunscreen

Sunscreen will protect your skin from UV rays. However, it may not protect your whole body. It is possible to get tan even though if you applied multiple layers of sunscreen. Tanning is the natural body’s response to UV rays. To avoid a tan, it is best to apply sunscreen and cover up with a hat and long clothing.

10.       Sunscreen works better than covering up

Many people believe that applying sunscreen will make their body invincible to the sun. But the truth is covering up your skin with cloth or hat is much better than sunscreen.

11.       Makeup is enough to protect the face

Makeup is s not a good replacement for Sunscreen. It provides an extra protective layer, not just only layer.
