Home treatment for common skin disease.

Skin disease can be treated if you cannot find a skin specialist or cannot afford professional medical care. Some skin diseases may be unusual or malignant that only a competent physician or specialist is qualified to recognize and treat it.

In cases where any doubt of self treatment exist, attempts at self-diagnosis or self-treatment are not wise. In such a condition, giving wrong treatment, or delay in giving the right treatment may be serious. Perhaps the most important warning to those who self-treat skin diseases without professional supervision is this: DO NOT OVER-TREAT! While a skin disease is being treated, any increase in the signs of irritation or inflammation should be taken as evidence of probable overtreatment or as an allergic reaction to the medication.
