You should see a dermatologist if symptoms last more than a few weeks, worsen, spread or cause pain or discomfort. Early intervention and effective treatment help prevent complications.
Some skin conditions caused by bacteria, viruses or fungi can be contagious because they are spread through contact. However, many conditions like eczema, psoriasis and autoimmune disorders are not contagious.
While some conditions can be cured with proper care, chronic conditions are managed long term to help reduce symptom severity and prevent flare-ups.
Bring a list of current medications and skin products, photos of flare-ups, notes about symptom timing and information about possible triggers. These details can help your dermatologist make an informed and accurate diagnosis.
