The areas of the skin with a high concentration of oil glands tend to be the most affected, like the scalp, sides of the nose, eyebrows, eyelids, behind the ears and the middle of the chest. Occasionally other areas can also be affected, such as the navel, breasts, buttocks and skin folds under the arms. Seborrheic Dermatitis can be treated successfully with topical medication, including low-strength cortisone preparations prescribed by your doctor. Frequent shampooing and washing also help the condition.

When a cut occurs in the skin of the leg, it may fail to heal due to poor blood flow. This can turn into an ulcer or a shallow wound that may contain pus and become infected. The ulcers can last for months or sometimes years, special care and dressing can help to speed the healing process. If you have an ulcer it is important to see your doctor as it can also be related to arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, mellitus and smoking.

Early symptoms include localised pain, headache or fatigue. Shingles can happen at any age, but is more common and painful in older adults. The virus attacks a nerve root and follows the line of that nerve, causing painful blisters on the scalp, face, torso, or extremities. It normally affects one side of the body only and can last for several weeks. Anti-viral medication can reduce the severity of the attack, minimising the possibility of long-lasting pain afterwards. Shingles can cause complications and can become serious. Consult you doctor if shingles is suspected, especially if the condition appears close to the eyes. Treatment is most effective if started within the first three days of onset.

It is often related to dry skin, but sometimes it can have other causes. Allergic reaction to fabric preservatives, wool, plastics, detergents, bleaches or soaps can irritate mature skin as it becomes more sensitive. So it is important to identify what is irritating the skin and limit the exposure to it. If moisturizer alone is not soothing the skin, your doctor can prescribe a remedy to improve the skin condition and perform some tests to establish if an internal disorder is causing the skin to itch.

Mild cases of dry skin can be treated with a moisturizer used immediately after the shower, while the skin is still damp. Petrolatum is an excellent moisturizer and is present in many lotions and cream. Many moisturizers contain some chemicals that can irritate the skin, such as urea, alpha hydroxy acids, lactic acid or ammonium lactate, used to minimise scaling and help the skin to hold water. Your GP or dermatologist can advise you which products would be more suitable for your skin. Bathing less often and using milder soap or a soap substitute, or soaking in a tub of warm water without soap can help alleviate dry skin; avoid hot water as it can irritate the skin more than warm water. Apply a moisturizer such as petrolatum or lanolin after bathing to seal the moisture in the skin. In case the dry skin persists, consult your doctor. A severe case of flaky, itchy and cracked skin could be an indication of a more serious problem.

As a result the skin starts to look loose and lax, it also becomes thinner and loses fat, looking less plump and smooth. Gravity also affects the ageing process as it pulls the skin down, causing it to sag. Can wrinkles be avoided? The rays of the sun are a major cause of unwanted changes in the skin as it ages. The amount of wrinkles you have on your skin is largely dependant on how much sun exposure the skin has had over the years. Smoking cigarette also accelerates the ageing process contributing to an increased amount of wrinkles on the skin. Wrinkles can also be genetic, some people can be prone to more wrinkles than others. Many wrinkles can be prevented. Wrinkles caused by the sun can be avoided from childhood by: Wearing sunscreen with SPF of at least 15 Wearing a hat with a brim and other protective clothing Don’t deliberately sunbathe Try to avoid sun exposure between 10am and 3pm Sun exposure as a child or teenager affects the way the skin will look at the age of 30, [...]]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.medimise.com/skin/can-wrinkles-be-avoided/feed</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Treatment for Ageing Skin</title><link>http://www.medimise.com/skin/mature-skin</link> <comments>http://www.medimise.com/skin/mature-skin#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 06 Feb 2009 22:43:23 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Marcia</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Ageing skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[mature skin]]></category> <category><![CDATA[wrinkles]]></category> <guid
