Some of the distressing kinds of skin condition are psoriasis, eczema, hives and urticaria, scabies, acne, birthmarks, warts and various types of dermatitis.  And this hasn't even scratched the surface. This site cannot deal with all skin conditions, since most skin problems are best left to the medical profession rather than self-help.  However, there are some non-prescriptive medications which can help some of the less serious skin conditions. On this site we will be looking at some of the more common skin complaints, what they are and what causes them, and any natural or non-prescriptive remedies which may be available.  It is stressed, that as with any condition refer to your doctor first, prior to trying any remedy, if you have any other conditions, or if you are already under treatment from him for your existing condition. Click to the left for the skin condition on which you require information and possible remedies.  Many skin conditions have both topical and internal causes and remedies and where possible, choices will be given. We will not, however, propose any remedy which has not been well researched, tested and found effective for the skin condition in question. Spa treatments can frequently help with skin problems.  Here is some information for North American visitors: WaySpa Day Spas Luxurious day spa packages and salon day spa services are available at choice locations near you.
