Common Causes of Skin Problems

Your skin is designed to protect outside contaminants from getting inside your body and making you ill. Most people don’t give a lot of thought to their skin until there’s a problem.

There are skin issues that can develop that are pretty common.

Some are easy to treat and some aren’t - unless you have a medication that’s designed for that specific problem.

Skin rashes are the number one reason that people seek over the counter treatments or visit their doctor, depending on the severity of the rash.

Rashes always have a root cause.

You can get a rash from coming in contact with something that triggers your body’s histamine response. An example of this would be a reaction to poison ivy.

But you can develop rashes from having contact with things you’re not even aware of.

You can break out in hives if your skin touches things like some types of perfumes or colognes.

You can have a metal allergy to jewelry. Some people break out in hives when they come in contact with an allergen.

The solution to this is to treat the rash and then stay away from what caused the reaction.

You can develop a skin rash in response to certain foods - even if you’ve never been allergic to them before.

Fruit is one of the most common causes of sudden skin rash caused by food allergies.

You can also develop skin rashes from medications.

Eczema is a skin problem that’s caused by inflammation, and it’s one that can make you pretty miserable.

You may also see it referred to as dermatitis. Some types of eczema can be inherited.

The hallmark to this skin condition is the high level of itching that’s associated with it. This itching can be present with or without a rash.

You may notice changes in the color of your skin. You can have redness in the affected area, but it can also cause the skin to thicken and appear scaly and darkened.

If you’re like many people, you may be experiencing dandruff.

Though some people believe it has to do with the hair washing techniques used, that’s not true.

Dandruff is caused by dry skin or by skin rashes. It’s caused by eczema or even fungus.

Your scalp is part of your skin, so it’s subject to the same problems that the rest of your body is.

Another common skin problem is warts. These are caused because there’s an infection known as human papillomavirus or HPV for short.

This type of infection occurs because the virus enters when the skin is open somewhere.

The virus then multiplies and causes the wart to develop.

Psoriasis is a skin condition that’s caused by rapid cell multiplication.

When this happens, you get tough, red areas that are scaly. The most common places on the body for this is on the elbows, scalp, knees, hands and feet.

The skin gets dry and itchy and can even split in areas and bleed.

Rosacea is a skin problem that causes the face to look red and flushed. You may or may not have bumps along with the redness.

These bumps can resemble acne. The cause of the condition can be inherited or caused by a reaction to something in your environment.
