		<description><![CDATA[Rosacea is a common inflammatory disorder of the skin which can manifest itself in one of four ways.

Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea: Vascular components such as Telangectasia (small dilated blood vessels just below the surface of the skin) and erythema (redness of the skin).
Papulopustular rosacea: The acne component of pustules and papules.
Phymatous rosacea: Irregular nodularities of the nose. The nose becomes thicken and enlarged. 
Occular rosacea: Inflammatory eye irritation.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are three common skin cancers. Basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma are the two most common. They are found in the upper layers of the skin.  They are highly preventable and highly curable although they can be disfiguring if left too long.   The third most serious skin cancer is Melanoma.  It too can be curable when caught early, but has the potential to be deadly when not.  Some melanomas are found in the upper layers of the skin, but many are more invasive and found in deeper layers.

 No one is immune from getting a skin cancer, though some are at greater risk.

		<description><![CDATA[The medical term for stretch marks is striae distensae. Usually these occur when the skin is abnormally stretched in a short amount of time for example rapid growth during puberty, pregnancy, or significant weight gain. During this process, the skin’s support structure of collagen and elastin breaks down and starts to rupture. Stretch marks usually create a tread-mark appearance of the skin that rarely returns to its original appearance.  They can form anywhere on the skin, but most commonly appear on the arms, legs, stomach and buttocks.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Could your cell phone be causing that facial skin rash? The answer may be yes-- and the culprit may be the nickel content in the fashionable design of many cell phones.

 Nickel is a familiar allergen that afflicts anywhere from 17% to 33% of the population with a red itchy rash doctors call Contact Dermatitis.

 People with a nickel allergy may take steps to avoid skin contact with products that contain nickel, which is found in some jewelry.

 But whether you know you have an allergy to nickel or not, you may not suspect the design on the front of your cell phone. Studies have shown many cell phones use nickel for their metallic highlights such as the brand logos, decorative accents, and even the buttons on the front of the phone.

 As a result there has been an increase in the prevalence of facial skin rashes associated with these cell phones.

Any movement alerts the bugs to burrow into the mattress making them difficult to spot with a visual inspection. You may see dark spots on the mattress, which are feces, or red blood spots. ]]></description>
