201 SKIN CASES DIAGNOSIS & TREATMENT

Dermatological training is often inadequately executed in MBBS undergraduate and post-MBBS internship days which leads to the qualifying remarks either “too difficult” or “very simple” regarding the subject “Dermatology” by some qualified doctors in their practice. Whatever may be the attitude of the physician toward the subject each and every doctor whether practicing or nonpracticing has to face and even treat dermatological cases in certain situation. Hence doctors should have some basic concept about the subject of dermatology so that they do not take the cases casually. They may not manage the case but they should know when to refer the patient to prevent fatality. This book represents a small attempt to bridge the gap or a humble dialogue to communicate. This endeavor however has been based totally on visual language which remains the basic conversation in clinical dermatology.
