1.

Acne

-Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin
cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. Acne is most common among teenagers, though
it affects people of all ages. Acne typically appears on your face, forehead, chest, upper back and
shoulders because these areas of skin have the most oil (sebaceous) glands.

2. Actinic Keratosis

-Actinic keratosis is a rough, scaly patch or bump on the skin. It's also known as a solar keratosis.
Actinic keratoses are very common, and many people have them. They are caused by ultraviolet
(UV) damage to the skin. Some, however, actinic keratoses can turn into squamous cell skin cancer.
It's often found on the face, lips, ears, forearms, scalp, neck or back of the hands.
3. Basal Cell Carcinoma

-Basal cell carcinoma is a type of skin cancer. Most basal cell carcinomas are thought to be caused by
long-term exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight. Basal cell carcinoma begins in the
basal cells — a type of cell within the skin that produces new skin cells as old ones die off. Basal cell
carcinoma often appears as a slightly transparent bump on the skin, though it can take other forms.
BCC, in other terms, typically presents as a shiny, pink- or flesh-colored papule or nodule with
surface telangiectasia. The tumor may enlarge and ulcerate, giving the borders a rolled or rodent
ulcer appearance. The most common sites for nodular basal cells are the face, especially the nose,
cheeks, forehead, nasolabial folds, and eyelids.

4. Blisters

-A blister is a bubble on the skin containing fluid and is one of the body's responses to injury or
pressure. Blisters are caused by friction, injury, allergic reactions, or infections. The symptoms of a
blister may resemble other skin conditions. The feet are particularly prone to blisters usually due to
ill-fitting shoes or footwear that cause friction. Hands are prone to it as well.
5. Carbuncle

-A carbuncle is an infection of the hair follicle(s) that extends into the surrounding skin and deep
underlying subcutaneous tissue. Most carbuncles are caused by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus
(S aureus). A carbuncle is a cluster of several skin boils (furuncles). The infected mass is filled with
fluid, pus, and dead tissue. They typically present as an erythematous, tender, inflamed, fluctuant
nodule with multiple draining sinus tracts or pustules on the surface. These usually start as reddish
or purplish, tender bumps. The bumps quickly fill with pus, growing larger and more painful until
they rupture and drain. They are most common on the back and the nape of the neck.

6. Cellulitis

-Cellulitis is a common, potentially serious bacterial skin infection, specifically staphylococcus and
streptococcus bacteria. Normal skin can be affected by cellulitis, but it usually happens after some
type of injury causes a skin break, including trauma or surgery. The affected skin is swollen and
inflamed and is typically painful and warm to the touch. The appearance is skin redness or
inflammation that gets bigger as the infection spreads. Skin sore or rash that starts suddenly, and
grows quickly in the first 24 hours. Tight, glossy, stretched appearance of the skin. It usually affects
the arms and legs. It can also develop around the eyes, mouth, and anus, or on the belly.
7. Chickenpox

-Chickenpox is a highly contagious illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), a type of herpes
virus. It is often a mild illness, characterized by an itchy rash on the face, scalp and trunk with 250-
500 pink spots and tiny fluid-filled blisters that dry and become scabs four to five days later.
Commonly known as “bulutong” in Tagalog. Those most susceptible to severe cases of chickenpox
are infants, adults, pregnant women, and people with impaired immune systems.

8. Cold Sores

-Cold sores, or fever blisters, are a common viral infection. They are tiny, fluid-filled blisters on and
around the lips. These blisters are often grouped together in patches. After the blisters break, a scab
forms that can last several days. They are caused by the herpes simplex virus. The most common
strain of the virus causing cold sores is herpes simplex virus 1. It can be spread by kissing or sharing
eating utensils or even sharing towels. Cold sores typically form on your lips or the skin around your
mouth. But they can also develop on other areas of your face, including your nose, cheeks or chin.
9. Contact Dermatitis

-Contact dermatitis is an itchy rash caused by direct contact with a substance or an allergic reaction
to it. The rash isn't contagious, but it can be very uncomfortable. Many substances can cause this
reaction, such as cosmetics, fragrances, jewelry and plants. The rash often shows up within days of
exposure. Concerning appearance, leathery patches that are darker than usual (hyperpigmented),
typically on brown or Black skin. Dry, cracked, scaly skin, typically on white skin. Bumps and blisters,
sometimes with oozing and crusting. You can experience contact dermatitis anywhere that your skin
came into contact with an allergen or irritant. The most common places that people experience
symptoms include: Face, neck and scalp. Lips, eyelids and cheeks.

10. Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)

-Eczema, or atopic dermatitis, is a common chronic skin condition that can lead to recurrent
infections and poor quality of life if left untreated. Atopic dermatitis tends to be red, weepy, crusty,
itchy, flaky patches, like oval or circular-shaped areas on the skin. Recognized as the "itch that
rashes" due to the rash that results from scratching or rubbing, the hallmark of eczema is dry, itchy
skin prone to infections. It is often triggered by food or environmental allergens. In infants and
young children, eczema is usually located on the cheeks, outside of the elbows and on the knees. In
older children and adults, eczema is typically on the hands and feet, the arms and on the back of
knees.
11. Impetigo

-Impetigo is a common infection of the superficial layers of the epidermis that is highly contagious
and most commonly caused by gram-positive bacteria, either Staphylococcus aureus or
Streptococcus pyogenes. It most commonly presents as erythematous plaques with a yellow crust
and may be itchy or painful. The lesions are highly contagious and spread easily. The main symptom
of impetigo is reddish sores, often around the nose and mouth. The sores quickly rupture, ooze for a
few days and then form a honey-colored crust. Sores can spread to other areas of the body through
touch, clothing and towels. Itching and soreness are generally mild.

12. Hives

-Hives, a skin rash that's often very itchy, often results from an allergic reaction to food or something
you've touched. It is the swelling of the surface of the skin into red- or skin-colored welts (called
wheals) with clearly defined edges. Wheals may get bigger, spread, and join together to form larger
areas of flat, raised skin. Wheals often change shape, disappear, and reappear within minutes or
hours. Hives can affect any part of the body, but is common on the torso, throat, arms and legs.
13. Diaper Rash

-Diaper Rash, or Diaper dermatitis is an inflammatory reaction of the skin of the perineal and
perianal areas (diaper area). It is the most common skin disorder seen in young infants. The most
common cause is irritant contact dermatitis due to occlusive diapers and prolonged exposure to
urine and feces. Diaper rash looks like patches of inflamed skin on the buttocks, thighs and genitals.

14. Candida

-Candida infection of the skin can cause intense itching. Symptoms also include: Red, growing skin
rash. Rash on the skin folds, genitals, middle of the body, buttocks, under the breasts, and other
areas of skin. Weakened immune system and certain types of medications increases the risk of
candidiasis. Other risk factors can depend on the type of infection. For example, pregnancy and
hormonal changes increase the risk of yeast infections. The symptoms usually cause a bright red
rash, sometimes with breakdown of skin. Small pustules may appear, especially at the edges of the
rash, and the rash may itch intensely or burn. A candidal rash around the anus may be raw, white or
red, and itchy.
15. Fifth Disease

-Fifth disease, otherwise known as Erythema infectiosum, is a mild illness caused by a virus called
parvovirus B19. It is rarely serious. Its most obvious symptom is the bright red rash or “slapped
cheek” look of the face. The disease occurs most often during the late winter and early spring in
children between the ages of 4 and 10. Fifth disease is known for a rash that makes a child's cheeks
bright red. A few days later, the rash spreads down to the trunk, arms, and legs. It usually lasts 1 to 3
weeks. It is contagious in the early stages before symptoms appear. Once the rash appears, it is no
longer contagious. It is spread by coughing, sneezing or by touching secretions from the nose and
mouth of an infected person.

16. Keratosis Pilaris

-Keratosis pilaris is a harmless skin condition that causes dry, rough patches and tiny bumps, often
on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks or buttocks. The bumps usually don't hurt or itch. Keratosis pilaris
is often considered a common variant of skin. Keratosis pilaris is caused by the buildup of keratin
which blocks the opening of hair follicles, causing patches of rough, bumpy skin. It is not contagious.
This type of skin condition is often hereditary or genetic.
17. Latex Allergy

- A latex allergy is a reaction to natural rubber latex, a substance that comes from the sap of the
rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis). It can cause skin irritation like itching, rash or hives, or allergy
symptoms like a runny nose and watery eyes. The most serious allergic reaction to latex is
anaphylaxis, which can be deadly. The rashes can be commonly found on the back of the hands.

18. Cutaneous Lupus

- Cutaneous lupus is caused by an autoimmune response, meaning the body attacks its own tissues
and organs. In cutaneous lupus, the immune system targets skin cells, causing inflammation that
leads to red, thick, and often scaly rashes and sores that may burn or itch. Symptoms may flare up
and disappear in unpredictable patterns. Without treatment, flares may persist for months or longer.
Lesions, or the damaged skin tissue, most often appear on the face, ears, scalp, neck, and hands.
19. Melasma

- Melasma is a common skin problem caused by brown to gray-brown patches on the face. Most
people get it on their cheeks, chin, nose bridge, forehead, and above the upper lip. It is more
common in women than men. Pregnancy is a common cause of melasma. It also affects woman
taking oral contraceptives and hormones. The patches in appearance are light brown, dark brown
and/or blue-gray on your skin. They can appear as flat patches or freckle-like spots.

20. Melanoma

-Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that can spread to other areas of the body. The main cause of
melanoma is ultraviolet light, which comes from the sun and is used in sunbeds. Melanoma can
appear as moles, scaly patches, open sores or raised bumps. Melanomas are usually brown or black,
but some can appear pink, tan, or even white. Some melanomas have areas with different colors,
and they might not be round like normal moles. They might grow quickly or even spread into the
surrounding skin. People who have white skin, especially those with fair or red hair, are more at risk
of developing melanoma.
21. Measles

Measles is a highly contagious disease caused by the rubeola virus. It spreads easily when an
infected person breathes, coughs or sneezes. It can cause severe disease, complications, and even
death. Measles can affect anyone but is most common in children. Measles rash, or Koplik’s spots,
appears 3 to 5 days after the first symptoms. It usually begins as flat red spots that appear on the
face at the hairline. They then spread downward to the neck, trunk, arms, legs, and feet. Small raised
bumps may also appear on top of the flat red spots.

22. Mpox (Monkeypox)

-Mpox (previously known as monkeypox) is a viral disease caused by an orthopoxvirus called

monkeypox virus. It spreads mainly through close contact with someone who has mpox, causing a
painful rash, enlarged lymph nodes and fever. It can make people very sick and leave scars. The rash
usually appears 1 to 5 days after the first symptoms. It can be on any part of the body, including the
palms of the hands, soles of the feet, mouth, genitals and anus. The rash starts as flat, red bumps,
which can be painful. Those bumps turn into blisters, which fill with pus. Eventually, the blisters crust
over and fall off. The whole process can last two to four weeks.
23. Psoriasis

- Psoriasis is a chronic (long-lasting) disease in which the immune system becomes overactive,
causing skin cells to multiply too quickly. Patches of skin become scaly and inflamed, most often on
the scalp, elbows, or knees, but other parts of the body can be affected as well. The cause of
psoriasis isn't fully understood. Lesions differ in appearance depending on type. Psoriasis typically
manifests as plaques covered with thick, silvery, shiny scales. Psoriasis plaques are elevated,
palpable lesions > 10 mm in diameter.

24. Ringworm (Tinea Corporis)

-Ringworm of the body (tinea corporis) is a rash caused by a fungal infection. It's usually an itchy,
circular rash with clearer skin in the middle. Ringworm is caused by fungi and not a worm. The
scientific names for the most common fungi that cause ringworm are Trichophyton, Microsporum,
and Epidermophyton. Fungal nail infections can occur if fungi get under the nail through small cracks
in the nail or surrounding skin. Ringworm gets its name because of its appearance, which usually
looks like a round, red or silvery patch of skin that may be scaly, inflamed and itchy.
25. Rosacea

- Rosacea is a long-term inflammatory skin condition that causes reddened skin and a rash, usually
on the nose and cheeks. It may also cause eye problems. The exact cause of rosacea is unknown,
although a number of possible factors have been suggested, including abnormalities in the blood
vessels of the face and a reaction to microscopic mites commonly found on the face. Rosacea may
cause enlarged blood vessels and small, pus-filled bumps. Some symptoms may flare for weeks to
months and then go away for a while. Rosacea can be mistaken for acne, dermatitis or other skin
problems.

26. Seborrheic Dermatitis

- Seborrheic dermatitis is a common, noncontagious, easy-to-manage skin condition. This type of

dermatitis causes itchy red patches and greasy scales on your skin. Seborrheic dermatitis is usually
caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The trigger is usually an
inflammatory reaction to excess Malassezia yeast, also sometimes called pityrosporum. Seborrheic
dermatitis signs and symptoms may include: Flaking skin (dandruff) on your scalp, hair, eyebrows,
beard or mustache. Patches of greasy skin covered with flaky white or yellow scales or crust on the
scalp, face, sides of the nose, eyebrows, ears, eyelids, chest, armpits, groin area or under the
breasts.
27. Squamous Cell Carcinoma

- Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is a type of cancer that starts as a growth of cells on the skin.
Most squamous cell carcinomas of the skin are caused by too much ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin most often occurs on sun-exposed skin. This includes the scalp,
the backs of the hands, the ears or the lips. But it can occur anywhere on the body. It can even occur
inside the mouth, on the bottoms of the feet or on the genitals. Symptoms of squamous cell
carcinoma of the skin include: A firm bump on the skin, called a nodule. The nodule might be the
same color as the skin, or it might look different. It can look pink, red, black or brown, depending on
skin color.

28. Vitiligo

-Vitiligo is a disease that causes loss of skin color in patches. The discolored areas usually get bigger
with time. The condition can affect the skin on any part of the body. It can also affect hair and the
inside of the mouth. Normally, the color of hair and skin is determined by melanin. Causes include: a
disorder of the immune system (autoimmune condition), family history (heredity) and trigger event,
such as stress, severe sunburn or skin trauma, such as contact with a chemical. In vitiligo, the white
patches usually appear symmetrically on both sides of your body, such as on both hands or both
knees. Sometimes, there can be a rapid loss of color or pigment and even cover a large area.
29. Warts

- Warts are skin growths that develop due to strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). There are
several types, like plantar warts, common warts and flat warts. Warts can be stubborn, but many
treatment options can help get rid of them. Although kids get warts most often, teens and adults can
get them too. Sometimes warts are sexually transmitted and appear in the genital area. But most
warts affect the fingers, hands, face, and feet. While having warts can be annoying—even
embarrassing—they are often treatable and not harmful. Warts usually appear as rough bumps on
the skin, though the different types differ in specific appearance.

30. Xeroderma

- Xeroderma is dry skin that is neither inherited nor associated with systemic abnormalities.
Diagnosis is clinical. Treatment involves moisturizers and other measures to keep the skin moist.
Xeroderma results from delayed shedding of the superficial cells of the skin, yielding fine white scale.
In simplified words, Xeroderma is the medical term for “dry skin.” You can have dry skin anywhere
on your body, but the most common places include: Hands. Feet. Face.
31. Xeroderma Pigmentosum

- Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare autosomal recessive genodermatosis that results due to
mutations in nucleotide excision repair. The condition characteristically demonstrates severe
photosensitivity, skin pigmentary changes, malignant tumor development, and occasionally
progressive neurologic degeneration. It is a genetic mutation caused by variants in at least nine
genes: DDB2, ERCC1, ERCC2, ERCC3, ERCC4, ERCC5, POLH, XPA, and XPC. These genes are involved in
repairing damaged DNA. DNA can be damaged by UVR and by toxic chemicals, such as those found
in cigarette smoke. Although it is an inherited disorder, this disorder is quite rare.
