Skin Disorders

The skin is a unique organ in that numerous signs of disease or injury are immediately observable on the skin. The skin serves as the interface between the bodys internal organs and the external environment. Therefore, skin disorders represent the culmination of environmental forces and the internal functioning of the body. Sunlight, insects and other arthropods, infectious organisms, chemicals, and physical agents all play a role in the pathogenesis of skin diseases. Although most disorders are intrinsic to skin, many are external manifestations of systemic disease. Thus, skin provides a valuable window for the recognition of many systemic disorders.
