Download or read book Dermatology in Clinical Practice written by Zohra Zaidi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Books on dermatology are either focused for medical s- dents or for students of dermatology. A general practitioner sees a lot of skin patients; about 17% of their patients are related to skin disease. We therefore decided to write a book that should meet the needs of a general practitioner. To make the book helpful for the primary care physician, we have focused more on common skin problems and have discussed the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders in depth to help the general practitioner in diagnosing and treating them. The chapter on the management of skin d- eases also gives the details of topical, systemic, and the phy- cal modalities used in treating skin disease. Uncommon skin diseases are only mentioned where required. The chapter on cutaneous manifestations of systemic diseases will help the general practitioner to correlate the cutaneous signs of the common medical problems seen by them. Emphasis is laid on the bacterial, fungal, and parasitic disorders that are pre- lent in tropical countries. We have included the common d- eases of other continents, as the general practitioner especially of developed countries has patients from all over the world. Congenital and hereditary disorders are discussed with the corresponding chapters, which makes it easier for the reader to remember. A number of practical points are included with each subject, and history of dermatology is included where appropriate to make the subject interesting to read.

Download or read book Nail Disorders and Their Management written by Aditya K. Gupta and published by Saunders. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their protective role, nails bear the brunt of daily activities. Walking, running, wearing shoes or participating in sports are just a few of the stresses and strains the feet must endure. All or a portion of the nail plate can be damaged when the feet are injured or abused. Nail disorders include those abnormalities that affect any portion of the nail unit. The nail unit includes the plate, matrix, bed, proximal and lateral folds, hyponychium, and some definitions include the underlying distal phalanx. These structures may be affected by heredity, skin disorders, infections, systemic disease, the aging process, internal and external medications, physical and environmental agents, trauma, and tumors, both benign and malignant. Nail problems are commonly caused by improper trimming, minor injuries or repeated trauma. Some nail disorders can also be congenital. Nail disorders comprise approximately 10% of all dermatologic conditions. This issue of Dermatologic Clinics will address various diseases and common maladies associated with nail disorders, including treatment.
