Skin disease can be more than skin deep

Our skin is one of the first things people notice about us.
Blemishes, rashes, dry, flaky skin - all these can breed
insecurity, even suicidality, even though the basic skin condition
is relatively benign. Skin disease can lead to psychiatric
disturbance.

But symptoms of skin disease can also indicate psychological
disturbance. Scratching, scarring, bleeding, rashes. These skin
disturbances can be the result of psychiatric disease.

How do you help a dermatological patient with a psychological
reaction? How do you differentiate psychological causes from true
skin disease? These are challenges that ask dermatologists,
psychiatrists, psychologists and other health care specialists to
collaborate.

Practical Psychodermatology provides a simple,
comprehensive, practical and up-to-date guide for the management of
patients with psychocutaneous disease. Edited by dermatologists and
psychiatrists to ensure it as relevant to both specialties it
covers:

* History and examination

* Assessment and risk management

* Psychiatric aspects of dermatological disease

* Dermatological aspects of psychiatric disease

* Management and treatment

The international and multi-specialty approach of Practical
Psychodermatology provides a unique toolkit for dermatologists,
psychiatrists, psychologists and other health care specialists
needing to care for patients whose suffering is more than skin
deep.
