Skin disorders vary greatly in symptoms and severity. They can be temporary or permanent, and may be painless or painful. Some have situational causes, while others may be genetic. Some skin conditions are minor, and others can be life-threatening.

Symptoms of skin disorders

Skin conditions have a wide range of symptoms. Symptoms on your skin that appear due to common problems aren’t always the result of a skin disorder. Such symptoms can include blisters from new shoes or chafing from tight pants. However, skin problems that have no obvious cause may indicate the presence of an actual skin condition that requires treatment.

Skin irregularities that are typically symptoms of a skin disorder include:

raised bumps that are red or white

a rash, which might be painful or itchy

scaly or rough skin

peeling skin

ulcers

open sores or lesions

dry, cracked skin

discolored patches of skin

fleshy bumps, warts, or other skin growths

changes in mole color or size

a loss of skin pigment

excessive flushing

Causes of skin disorders

bacteria trapped in skin pores and hair follicles

fungus, parasites, or microorganisms living on the skin

viruses

a weakened immune system

contact with allergens, irritants, or another person’s infected skin

genetic factors

illnesses affecting the thyroid, immune system, kidneys, and other body systems

Numerous health conditions and lifestyle factors can also lead to the development of certain skin disorders. Some skin conditions have no known cause.
