Dermatoses: common in blacks.

Some skin disorders are more common in blacks than in whites or are so rare in whites as to be almost peculiar to blacks. Pigmentary abnormalities, either dark or light spots, often occur in association with inflammatory skin diseases. Curvature of the hair follicle is thought to be at the root of two other painful conditions, pseudofolliculitis of the beard and keloidal folliculitis. Certain hairstyles and treatments are damaging and can even cause alopecia if continued.

Allergic and reactive dermatoses. How to identify and treat them.

The epidermis, as the body's first line of defense against many pathogens, reacts in a variety of ways to the assault of foreign antigens. Allergic contact dermatitis, drug eruption, urticaria, and erythema multiforme are examples. The clinician must usually rely on clinical evidence for diagnosis. The first therapeutic strategy is to identify and avoid the antigen or drug causing the reaction. Beyond this, therapy consists of relief of symptoms in mild to moderate cases. In severe cases, systemic treatment can be helpful, but the therapeutic options and their efficacy are limited.
