Skin Cancer
| Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers. Nearly half of all cancer patients are in the United States. More than 1 million cases of nonmelanoma skin cancer are found in the country each year. |
Skin Rashes
| A rash is a change in the skin which affects its appearance or texture. It may be localized to one part of the body, or affect all the skin. Rashes may cause the skin to change color, itch, become warm, bumpy, dry, cracked or blistered, swell and may be painful. |
Dry Skin
| We all have a natural oil coating over our skin produced by the skin oil glands. If this oil is removed, then the skin becomes dry which can lead to cracking, which can lead to inflammation. |
